I hope that you can see that I'm really trying to get some facts and understand this matter. Thanks again.
First, was the the statute in effect at or around the year that Obama was born?
I would venture a guess that it was, since the statute references "Territory" as well as "State," and Hawaii became a state in ... what, 1959? Or was that Alaska?
Secondly, in Hawaii, is there any difference whatsoever between a "birth certificate" and a "certificate of live birth"?
That I do not know. I've been under the impression that "Certificate Of Live Birth" was the specific legalese under Hawaiian law for a birth certificate, but the wording of the statute does throw that into question.
I'd love to see some sort of resolution to this question, and it really is a genuine point of concern, prior to the election. It appears to me that the far left is angling to create a Constitutional crisis.
