The state department disagrees. They are very clear in what they regard to be a birth certificate:
"A certified birth certificate has a registrar's raised, embossed, impressed or multicolored seal, registrar’s signature, and the date the certificate was filed with the registrar's office, which must be within 1 year of your birth."
Obama's has all those things.
You are grasping at straws.
Obama's has all those things.
Really? Can you know if a seal is raised with a copy? I can't.Can you know if a signature, seal or even the document itself is real if the original is never produced?
I'm not sure I believe 0bama was not born an American, but I do know the original has NEVER been presented in public.
What's the big deal about not producing the original? I don't get it.
Actually, the state department disagrees with you.
One more time....

Obama’s COLB IS a short-form (abstract) version of his birth certificate.
BTW - did you know that Hawaii doesn’t even agree with you?
Please read from http://hawaii.gov/dhhl/applicants/appforms/applyhhl:
QUOTE: “In order to process your application, DHHL utilizes information that is found only on the original Certificate of Live Birth, which is either black or green. This is a more complete record of your birth than the Certification of Live Birth (a computer-generated printout). Submitting the original Certificate of Live Birth will save you time and money since the computer-generated Certification requires additional verification by DHHL.” ENDQUOTE
And one more time for the tone deaf:
The computer-generated CertifiCATION requires additional verification by DHHL.
Oh, DHHL is Department of Hawaiian Home Lands.
