what did Hawaii affirm?
Thank you. I actually joined last March. Though I only post sporadically.
what did Hawaii affirm?
On the basic fact-in-issue regarding eligibility, the Hawaii Dept. of Health, per Dr. Onaka, stated:
“[I] verify the following:
1. A birth certificate is on file with the Department of Health indicating that Barack Hussein Obama, II was born in Honolulu, Hawaii.”
So as to the question "Was Barack Obama born in Hawaii?" that statement is about as simple and direct an affirmation that Hawaii's vital records indicate "Yes" as one can draft.
