The hospital owns hospital records.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

If they exist, there are records for the mom and the baby.

So....Even if the hospital claims than no one has a right to access Stanley Ann's records, Obama has a clear right to release **his** own!

It is it amazing the deafening silence coming from Kapiolani Hospital?

“It is it amazing the deafening silence coming from Kapiolani Hospital?”

Haha. Are they still hiding that fraudulent fundraising letter?

Kapiolani Hospital it time to celebrate. Dear Reader has embraced your maternity ward as his birth cradle.

Chop, chop get moving on those “Dear Reader was born here” memorial plaques.

Where’s the National Park service in this fiasco?

Means Obama hasn't given them permission to release, I'd guess. Or that they don't consider it significant enough to bother with any special press release. You could always call and ask if you're interested.

First, it's very unlikely that paper records from 1961 still exist at Kapiolani. The law allows destruction of records prior to 1986 (25 years), if Kapiolani has converted to EMR the destruction of such records is a certainty.

Second, is the "silence from Kapiolani" amazing? Not at all. They have NO obligation to divulge any information that they may still possess, AND they have a very strong (and getting stronger) affirmative obligation not to.
