However, each one of these Hawaiian issued BCs show the actual place of birth. They will only list a Hawaiian birth if the individual was actually born in Hawaii.
Do you have an example of one such of these? I have looked at a lot of Hawaiian birth certificate images, but I don't recall seeing one listing a birth place other than Hawaii. If such exist then it is evidence that Hawaii WILL note this information on the document.
This makes it less likely that such a thing may have occurred with Obama's document. It doesn't eliminate the possibility, but it does make it less likely.
Let me see what I can find.
The child of two Hawaiian citizen/residents born in Hoboken, New Jersey while on vacation will as a matter of policy be listed on a Hawaiian Certificate of Live Birth with a place of birth in Hawaii. The Hawaiian Certificate of Live Birth for a foreign born adopted child is required to use the foreign location as the place of birth.
