I agree with you!
You know...something just occurred to me.I've done quite a bit of family research in the past,so I have some experience hanging around in state vital records offices...particularly New Hampshire and Massachusetts.NH has very restrictive laws regarding the release of such records (as do other states) but MA has very lax laws on the subject (as do other states).In MA,at least,*anyone* can walk in to the state archives office in Boston and,without presenting any ID,can ask to see *any* birth,marriage,divorce or death record and be given that record...the original,*official* record.It just occurred to me that in MA,at least,there would be *nothing* to stop a person from tearing that *official* record out of the book (they're in huge,heavy books containing hundreds..or thousands...of records each) and sticking it in their pocket.Something like this could present a *very* tempting opportunity to a dishonest future...or current...presidential candidate.
