The inescapable fact is that it would take Mister Obama a lot less time and effort and money to produce his original form birth certificate that it has taken Mister Avlon to write, edit, and publish this article in which he accuses the birthers of obsessive, unreasonable, and irrational behavior.
When I got my job, I had to produce a certified copy of my birth certificate, which it turns out, I didn't have. I was able to get a certified copy of my birth certificate over the Internet with very little trouble. I later found out that I could have actually gotten it faster and cheaper had I just contacted the county office or courthouse where I was born and requested a copy directly from there (about 1/3 the price, and 1/3 the time).
Heck, illegal aliens are able to get forged birth certificates, and Obama won't produce anything?
