So the Hawaiian newspaper birth announcements are unacceptable proof of Obama being born in Hawaii, but African newspaper articles are acceptable proof that he was born in Kenya?

Some days ya’ need a program to keep track of the divergent sects of birtherology.

Neither are acceptable in the court of law as neither are managed by the state of Hawaii or the country of Kenya. Clinging to either for an answer is a waste of time and resources as it is purely speculation. The only benefit to reviewing this information is to use it as evidence in any fraud cases which may arise.

The same applies to digital facimiles of birth certificates, certifications, and licenses. Birth records should be easily obtainable in hard copy form from the state issuing those certifications. It only takes a simple certified packet to be shipped from the state to the requesting court.

Regardless, it matters not if Obama is born in Hawaii or not. The Supreme Court must interpret Article II requirements in the context of qualifications. Otherwise all of this conjecture is simply an academic exercise.

What I find continually fascinating is the vehement "birther" opposition who want to ensure this case never makes it to the Supreme Court. This represents true fear that Obama is truly unqualified along with millions of other dual citizens. It is akin to the senators in Wisconsin who abandon their post instead of provide resolution to a problem diplomatically, regardless of outcome.

My question is: "What are you afraid of? Do you not trust the Supreme Court to make a Constitutional decision?"

You do understand that the former articles actually say where Obama was born while the birth announcements do not?? Tell me you understand this.
