Sadly, Michael is stuck on stupid on this one. The birth certificate he claims to be holding is, no doubt, the Certificate of Live Birth, which is NOT a long form birth certificate. I’m not sure about the two newspaper clippings announcing Obama’s birth Michael claims to have, but I know that at least one of them lists a home address where Obama never lived. While Obama is certainly a citizen of the U.S., according to Title 10 of the U.S. Code, the question is whether he is a “natural born” citizen, i.e., having two U.S. parents and being born in the U.S. That’s what the Constitution requires.
This just goes to show that he does no real research before voicing his opinions to the world.
It would really help if everyone who tries to discuss this issue kept their terms straight. What Obama has shown is NOT a “Certificate of Life Birth,” it is a “CERTIFICATION of Live Birth”.
What we want to see, and which he has not produced, the “Long form” archival Birth Certificate is in fact the “Certificate of Live Birth”. He has NOT presented the “Certificate of Live Birth”, and in fact has spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to prevent anyone seeing the “Certificate of Live Birth”.
It’s no wonder the lamestream media always gets it wrong. They’re taking their cues from us.

If Medved is holding up Obama's short form birth certificate that we see on the internet, then someone should ask Medved these questions:
Can you explain why the word "African" is used to classify Obama's father, when way back in 1961, "Negro" was used and not "African"?
Can you explain why in the long history of Hawaii birth certificates, it looks like the RACE classification of "African" was used ONLY on Obama's short form birth certificate that we see on the internet and the one that you are see in front of you?
