It is hard to know at which point the 'spreckle' pattern was applied. Was it on the original or is it a result of the copying process?
White-out tape with a straight edge could have been used to cover the original typing in 17b and the edge could have covered the bottom of the field label, or there could have been a defect in the printing layout of the original and the bottom of all field 17b field names could have been hidden. They didn’t have laser printing back then.
I do note that the boxes for “parent” and “MD” appear clear of ‘spreckles’ and may have been whited out to cover over an x. The HI registry clerk might have incorrectly x’d these boxes from force of habit as the first signature would nearly always be “parent” and the next signature would be “MD”.
Could you please read posts 139, 142, and 144 and update The Obama Files? I think that everyone jumped on the “fake” bandwagon because they thought it contradicted with what we know from the other “fake” African BCs.
That is incorrect. Instead, reading all three documents for CONTENT, you will find that they are in complete accord with one another. For example, the latest BC indicates a Kenyan birth.
Post 144 explains why the latest document, which is listed as “altered” , could easily fit in with what we know about Hawaiian laws and procedures. Some times I think we are too willing to call a document fake if it disagrees with our world view. Few of us are truly forensic experts to make such decisions, especially if the document may have gone. through several stages of processing such as being photographed, microfilmed and scanned.
I know that BHO’s minions are out there actively producing fakes and purging information that is not consistent with his “official” biography. However, that doesn’t mean we should dismiss with anything which we fear has been tampered. We should view the validity of a document being valid on a scale of 1 to 100. I don’t think I would put 100 on any document we have yet seen. I would put the Australian BC about a 10. Never completely dismiss a document. Always examine with an open mind.
