Okubo also emphasized the certification form "contains all the information needed by all federal government agencies for transactions requiring a birth certificate."

The requirements for president come from the Constitution, which is not, in fact, a "federal government agency." And actually, even a birth certificate (or it's various definitions) is not the issue here.

The actual issue is very simple: where was he born?

The Constitution is silent on mechanism for proving place of birth.

It appears possible Chester Arthur, 19th century president, was actually born a few miles inside Canada. If true, nobody cared at the time.

You are wrong, and it does nothing to settle the issue, where he is born does not establish Natural Born Citizenship status, period.
