Can somebody answer a very simple question? Is it standard practice when digitizing public records to attempt to extract the relevant text parts on a form and then place them against a modern green background? Can any technology perform that reliably, especially when working with microfiche? Has ANYBODY else ever received their BC where the state digitized the original document, extracted the printed elements on the form as well as the hand written elements on the paper and then electronically layered them onto a green backdrop?
I’ve yet to see an answer to these questions.
Frankly, I’ve never heard of any state doing that, I don’t know of any technology that can do that reliably, and I’ve never received a document like that.
Has anybody asked Hawaii if this is standard practice for them? Did they do it? Or did somebody on the Obama / WH staff do it? Has anybody asked HI about their current protocols for releasing public documents like this?
Why didn’t he release a simple photostat or just a photo of somebody holding the original paper copy?
I’ve never seen anything like it either. When I heard the news that 0bummer was releasing his long form, I expected to see something like the Nordyke twins long form.

Those appear to have something in the background, but I can’t tell what it is.
Uh? .....Because there is no birth certificate?
