In that statement, there is absolutely no confirmation of the authenticity of the BC posted by 0bama.
However to any judge or member of Congress reviewing Dr. Fukino’s statement: “...in spite of the fact that President Obama posted a copy of the birth certificate on his former campaign web site” being said by the Director of Health for the state of Hawaii is most definitely confirmation.
Particularly after that same Lingle Administration official had issued a news release stating: “...verifying Barack Hussein Obama was born in Hawaii and is a natural born American citizen.”
And even more authentification came from the St. Petersburg Times newspaper who got a copy of Obama’s COLB from the Obama campaign headquarters in Chicago and they e-mailed the COLB to Janice Okubo, Director of Communications for the Hawaii Department of Health and Ms. Okubo’s response was “It’s a valid Hawaii state birth certificate.”
And the former Governor of Hawaii, Linda Lingle said in a radio interview: “You know, during the campaign of 2008, I was actually in the mainland campaigning for Sen. McCain. This issue kept coming up so much in the campaign, and again I think it’s one of those issues that is simply a distraction from the more critical issues that are facing the country. And so I had my health director, who is a physician by background, go personally view the birth certificate in the birth records of the Department of Health, and we issued a news release at that time saying that the president was, in fact, born at Kapi’olani Hospital in Honolulu, Hawaii. And that’s just a fact. And yet people continue to call up and e-mail and want to make it an issue. And I think it’s, again, a horrible distraction for the country by those people who continue this. ... It’s been established. He was born here.”
I believe that if any of those Republican state officials are ever called to give depositions or testify under oath in a trial or before Congress, they would be willing to confirm and amplify their previously made statements.
