It was Fukino who said it was half written/half typed. She would have been viewing the entire birth certificate not just the parts given to the parents in a certified copy.
“She found the original birth record, properly numbered, half typed and half handwritten, and signed by the doctor who delivered Obama, located in the files.”
Her description would match an entire birth certificate that was typed by the nurse/clerk and handwritten by the doctor.
As to what Abercrombie said - here it is -
“It was actually written I am told, this is what our investigation is showing, it actually exists in the archives, written down …”
The archives is not the Department of Health. It is a separate entity. It does not contain birth records. Here is their website:
http://ags.hawaii.gov/archives/
Considering that Abercrombie said he would not ask Obama for permission to release the birth certificate (even the governor of the state can not go and look at the birth records) and only do what was “legally possible”, what is written in the state archives is still a mystery. Doctor Sinclair’s notes? Dr. West’s journals?
We don’t know but it would not be a birth certificate.
Re your comment about the archives, Abercrombie and Obama’s birth certificate. You completely misconstrued what took place (as usual). Abercrombie never said he looked in the archives. He had previously announced that he was going to lay the *birther* controversy to rest by confirming that Obama had a HI BC. For that, he’d have looked in the vital records.
No matter what Obots contend, ‘Neil,’ did tell his friend Mike Evans that no HI BC exitsted for Obama. Evans backpaddling afterwards only underscores how sensitive the issue is. Abercrombie had thought he was speaking in confidence to a friend; Evans thought he was being gifted with a huge scoop. That explains why he talked about it 23 times the next day. Then he was obviously contacted and told to retract, which he did.
Anyway, Abercrombie never said he looked in the archives. He said he was *told* something was in the archives. But his search for the BC would not have been taken place in the archives. Not *everyone* on Abercrombie’s staff was a drooling idiot; when the governor said he wanted to confirm the existence of Obama’s BC, he’d have been directed to the vital records.
