I was thinking that a minor couldn’t renounce.

I believe that to be true as well.

IMHO, his birth certificate is immaterial First, because it would have his adopted name of Barry Soetoro [not Barack Obama], and secondly because of his minor status.

That's why whether or not he received funding for college as a foreign national under his alias is so important, but that, too is under lock and key.

funding for college as a foreign national

I agree that this is the root issue. Or even if he applied for it by using a claim of foreign citizenship, whether he actually took any such student aid or not. I think that's at the bottom of his reluctance to even start releasing documentation of his life. Sooner or later this would be found out.
