On the COLB released by the Obama campaign, his DOB is stated as Aug 4, 1961.
The date of the newspaper announcing his birth is Aug. 13, 1961, 9 days later.
Anyone can put an announcement in the newspaper, do you think the newspaper demands seeing the original birth certificate, before publishing an announcement?
IOW, the announcement means nothing.
There is some Hawaii statute that people posted before, that says, that anyone who resided in Hawaii for a year, can get a Hawaii birth certificate, even if not born there.
