Thank you. It’s glaringly obvious that this document is a fake. Obama knew he was going to announce about OBL - so he just threw this out to “put the birthers in their place”, and make the issue now seem petty compared to the Bin Laden story.

Scary times, what is he doing while everyone is talking about Osama Bin Laden?

...so he just threw this out to “put the birthers in their place”...

I like the alternative explanation: He was so PO'ed about not getting invited to the Royal Wedding, he did the phony BC to attract attention to himself. When that didn't hold up to the light, he sought the limelight with Bin Ladin's death. When you realize you're dealing with an ego maniac, it all makes sense to me.

Can’t you hear it now? “We just killed Osama bin Laden, and these nutjobs are still worried about my birth certificate?”

Notice how fast the BC issue disappeared once OBL story broke? Wonderful timing to make people forget!

What, if anything, do we know about the state official who certified this document?

Whatever the facts are, I think that absent a bombshell (and the pixelation issue might be one) it will be hard to get a lot of people to focus on this any more.

I could be wrong!

What is happening is that (in the overlapping copy areas) the OCR-trace prioritized the printed form "copy" first and treated the signature(s) as image. This is common in an OCR trace. Also, you'll notice that his mother's signature and the "Local Register's" is also half image and half bitmap. That's just an example of OCR limitations. This doesn't prove anything except that some idiot decided to scan this birth certificate using OCR-trace, but that is a common practice for government documents because it creates a smaller file. Check the "K" in Kansas. Same thing happening there, for example.

I feel like Obama is tone-deaf in most political issues, but releasing the BC when he did was very good timing, especially with Trump’s antics and the Corsi book coming out in two weeks. When he released the BC, he knew that they had gotten Osama, which dwarfs all the eligibility issues.

It will be hard to maintain focus on eligibility, but we can’t stop now.

The release of the BHO Sr treasure trove cannot be underestimated. It proves beyond a doubt that “Dreams From My Father” was a complete fabrication aimed at creating an illusion, not reporting anything factual.

You can’t write about this!

He just led the charge in killing Osama bin Laden.

Trumps the story. “/S”

We know a state official certified a document. There is no way of knowing if it is the same document that was posted online.

I wrote above that it’s an OCR thing and I was going to post an example from another document with a background texture, but I can’t find an equivalent example.... so... I’m going to cover my butt and say that I’ve seen this happen before, but I’m having a really hard time digging up an example to prove it.

So I guess consider my above post as “opinion” until I can find an example of it happening in other docs.

This is common in an OCR trace.

I guess you didn't follow the link back to my first Big and Little Pixels post. If it's so common you should easily be able to come up with an example or two of other pdf documents that purport to be a single scan of a single document, that were posted to the Internet prior to April of this year.
