This seems to leave an opening. Couldn't someone find one of Obama's relatives that may not be so happy with him or is in a poor financial situation (i.e. his Kenyan family) make the request? Sounds like a way to get the information legally.

I Thought a couple of his relatives had already said Obama was born in Kenya.

Of course .. nobody in the media will follow through with a question as to why half his relatives say Obama was not born in Hawaii.
