Pixels Don't Lie

To prove that the birth document Obama posted on the White House website on April 27, 2011 is a fraudulent document, all you need to determine is whether or not it is a computer created document or a scanned photocopy.

It is a computer created document. Even the obots can not deny that.

You do not need to ask the Hawaii DOH for a "waiver" in order to get a computer created birth document. Obama asked for special permission from Hawaii DOH to get photocopies of his original birth certificate. Loretta Fuddy granted that request and gave Obama, she says, photocopies of his original birth certificate.

Scanning a photocopy, in order to post it on a website, does not turn it in to a computer created document with multiple layers and movable text. Although interesting, it isn't all the details of the forgery that first reveal that it's a fake; different fonts, the halos, the weird bent page, the strange behavior of the security paper. It is the fact that it IS a computer created document and NOT a scanned photocopy.

But let's look at one of those fun forgery details. I included the web addresses for the quote and images I describe.

Here is what Chiyome Fukino [Former Director of Hawaii Public Health Department] had to say about how the “birthers” would respond to the release of Obama’s birth certificate.

“They’re going to question the ink on which it was written or say it was fabricated.” Said Fukino. “The whole thing is silly.”1

Let’s start with the ink, shall we?

From Hawaii Public Health Regulations Title: Vital Statistics, Registration & Records. Chapter 8, Certificates of Vital Statistics Events, Section 1. Preparation. Certificates of vital statistics events are to be filled in by typewriter or in ink. If ink is used only permanent ink will be acceptable. All signatures are to be made with permanent ink. In all other respects, the certificates shall comply with provisions of Section 57-14, R.L.H. 1955.”

On April 27, 2011 Barack Obama revealed what he said was a photo copy of his original long form ‘Certificate of Live Birth’ from Hawaii (it was posted on the White House website). The signatures on this ‘Certificate of Live Birth’ are required to be made in permanent ink.

Pixels Don’t Lie

Download the BC document off the White House website and open it in Adobe Illustrator. Now zoom in on the signature of Obama’s mother. The pixels reveal that only a portion of the signature is in ink as required by Hawaii Public Health Regulations Chapter 8.

The Ann and the D in Dunham are in ink. The pixels are a variety of gradations in greys and blacks, like ink signature pixels are. But what’s really interesting is that the rest of the signature, ‘unham and Obama’, are not in ink.

The letters are a solid greenish–black color with no gradation in color at all. This lack of gradation reveals that this part of the signature was created in the computer and is not even penmanship.

And what’s it called when you forge a signature on a “Certificate of Live Birth” from Hawaii? FORGERY! Well that would be my top pick but hey they also violated Hawaii Public Health Regulations by not using permanent ink in their forgery! Maybe that’ll tick someone off.

If you ignore the fact that this document was computer created and that fact, in and of itself, makes it a forgery, you can't deny what the pixels are telling us.

The Stanley Ann Dunham Obama signature on this document is a forged signature and that makes the whole document a forgery.

Figure 1. The Dunham part of the signature of Obama’s mother on the alleged long form original ‘Certificate of Live Birth’, posted on the White House website. Here it has been downloaded into Adobe Illustrator.

Figure 2. Zooming in on the top part of the ‘D’ in Dunham. You can see the variation in color pixels—variations of grays to black tones. This is how pixels of a signature will appear when it is applied with ink and scanned.

Figure 3. Focusing now on the start of the ‘u’ next to the D in Dunham. You can see there is no gradation of color at all. A solid dark greenish-black color displays no evidence of the gradation in color for these pixels which implies that this “signature” was created with image editing software and not with ink.

Figure 4. The last image focuses on the O in ‘Obama’ and part of the b. You can see there is no color change in the pixels. The solid pixel color again suggests the signature was not scanned or representative of ink. The ‘Obama’ portion of the signature was computer generated.

our side needs to do a serious review of mid-’80s electronic document processing...

The mid-80's may have been a little while before I got into computers, but I recall seeing a demo of Adobe's OCR scanning package and assumed that it would become "the industry standard."

The demonstrator hailed as a significant new feature a feature that created a miniature tiff of an unrecognizable character and assigned it to a separate layer. I assumed there should only be two layers.

One thing I noticed about the scan at the gov. website, which is flat, is that comparing the characters "6d." with the "6e." in the fold of the page you see that the shaded region is anti--aliased but that from the middle page is not, as if scanned at a lower color resolution. Also, note the period in both figures: they are exactly the same except for the left most column of pixels is missing from the shaded side.

One other thing, OCR software would have printed the doc in true-type or post-script fonts, which would have been smoother, it would seem.

Two other things come to bear in assessing this thing: the sheriff who's investigation found inconsistencies in 'bam's selective service registration, and the fact that 'bam went to a great deal of trouble avoiding their release.

Lee was the local registrar for the same hospital in which Virginia Sunahara was born. Think about it.

DIFFERENT LOCAL REGISTRARS

Aside from the fact that Obama’s ‘Certificate of Live Birth’ Registration released by the Hawaiian Department of Health appears to be affixed with a signature which appears to play on the Hawaiian word, “UKULELE” (U.K.L. Lee), it is also represented by different local registrar than is shown on the Nordyke’s Hospital version of the Certificate of Live Birth. A different local registrar worked in each of the four branch offices in which births were registered in Hawaii. Obama’s birth was registered in an office which is not the office use by Kapi’olani to register births occurring in its facility.

The name of a local registrar is not associated with other birth certificates for births which actually occurred at Kapi’olani and which were attested by physicians who actually delivered those births. This registrar worked in a branch office not used by Kapi’olani to register births. This is why Obama’s birth registration number is out of sequence with other births at the same time as his.

OUT OF ORDER TOO: THE NEWSPAPER ANNOUNCEMENTS

Last month, The Daily Pen’s Dan Crosby, published the results of his investigation of the procedures used to publish birth announcements in Hawaii. He found historical evidence which supports that fact that Obama’s birth did not occur in Kapi’olani, but which was registered in a different local office after he was examined by a doctor at Kapi’olani on August 7th, 1961.

Crosby went to Hawaii to research and investigate the cavalcade of ambiguous information related to Obama’s covert natal history including the origins and protocols used to publish the birth announcements in 1961. He focused on the manner in which the Hawaiian Department of Health and local hospitals coordinated vital statistics information and how the chain of information from the Hospital to the Hawaiian Department of Health resulted in “Weekly Health Bureau Statistics” announcements published in the local papers.

Crosby found evidence that the order in which the announcements were published was not random or chronological. In fact, he discovered they were published by the order of birth registration numbers assigned by the main Office of Vital Records which, in turn, were based on reception from various local registration branches. He discovered that, regardless of when the birth may have occurred, the registration number, assigned by the geographic order of the registration offices, determined the order of the announcements.

This is why Obama’s birth announcements occur near the bottom of each column in each newspaper even though there are births which occurred before and after his but which are published above his in the papers. This is because the births published above his all occurred in the same place and were registered in the same office and then passed to the central main office. The numbers were, therefore, ordered by the main office of the Health department in reference to their geographic registration order, not their chronological occurrence.

An investigation of the addresses of the birth registrations reveals that they migrate proximally to either a medical facility or to a local registration office. This is logical because most pregnant women would desire a hospital in close proximity once contractions began.

The birth announcements and ordering based on geographic registration location are shown below as they appear in the two versions of the newspapers...etc etc

THAT INFORMATION HAS BEEN UP SINCE JULY 2011.

I haven't been following the issue since well before then, and only started looking at it again in the last few weeks.

I got sick to death of the issue, once it became clear that no court was going to look at any facts concerning the eligibility issue. Instead I spent my time getting in better contact with family. Also looking for a new job, since the Obama cutbacks in defense wiped out my old one. I still haven't found one, 14 months later (+2 months after being notified but before being laid off). Despite literally hundreds of job applications. 35-40 for one one company, 27 for another. And many, many others in ones and twos. I've only had two on site interviews for all that, plus 3-4 technical screening telephone interviews that went nowhere. Even before being laid off, I had knee replacement surgery, for both knees at separate times a couple of months apart.

Sorry to hear that, and sorry I was snippy, I have spent the last two days trying to fill gaps and provide information to freepers, only to find that most of them are simply there to try and second-guess the information, regardless of the number of sources I qoute, or the links I provide.
Like you, I am also sick to death of the issue...hope you have better luck finding a job soon.

Someone on our side needs to do a serious review of mid-’80s electronic document processing - before we get seriously embarrassed by the ignorant rhetoric being thrown around by the “multiple layers + multiple resolutions = fake” crowd. Please trust me guys: you’re building yourselves a trap and walking into it.

Go learn something about document forgery and how photoshop works before you make such an illogical statement. Look at the content of the layers. If nothing else, look at all the Arpaio press conference video handouts and those videos and analyses published elsewhere.

Yes, it is idiotic to parse a PDF which breaks a document scan into layers. 30 minutes of research, or a simple download of Adobe acrobat would explain all these issue. Plus it ignores the other image released the same day that wasn't layered. It is trailer park analysis of a computer document - embarrassing for conservatives, and helping Obama.

It would be wiser to learn something about pdf's, Adobe, and Photoshop before making such a statement. If it was EVER published in layers, you should know that correcting that FUBAR by subsequently flattening it simply proves it is a forgery.

It doesn't even pass the common sense test. What forger would put together a document using this bizarre cut and paste, layering method...and then forget to merge the layers or flatten the image? The answer...NONE!!!

A dumb liberal staffer or lawyer with more skill than sense! Who says some liberal lawyer or legal aid that is smart enough to know how to fiddle with photoshop isn't dumb enough to know to flatten the resulting document before publishing it. There are a lot of people out here that are smart enough to photoshop it ...but... which are not forensic document examiners to know what NOT to do!

If you want a real-world display of the incompetence and hubris of the Obama administration and staff, the idiotic nature of the forgery simply confirms it in spades!!!!

Clue: mid-’80s document processing involved, thanks to extreme limits on storage space, multi-layer document deconstruction involving multiple resolutions, varying compression, and auto-replacement of common components.

I knew then it would cause exactly the kind of consternation we’re seeing today. Ignorant of the past, you are setting yourself a trap and walking into it.

The unlayered version was released the same day as they PDF, it wasn't a response to the questions about layers. Again, they key point here is that a document scan will automatically create layers, so that they exist is meaningless, and doesn't mean it was edited, other than by the computer interpreting it. See this description of how scanning works, or please, just try it yourself.

You are 100% wrong. When you scan a document, by definition, it turns into a computer generated document. There can be few, or many of artifacts created in the process. If you enable OCR, you will get layers and all sorts of visual artifacts as the process will try and sharpen the image. You are falling for ignorant claims by people who are bot technologically literate. You can reproduce the artifacts yourself by installing the software and trying it.

Here is an example National Review put together, showing how a scanning to a pdf will create layers as seen in the obama cert.

There are no facts in the original post - just a lot of kooky conspiracy theories, and technological illeterates. Instead of spending time talking about all the real bad things Obama is doing, we have a bunch of useful idiots making conservatives look stupid because they don’t understand how scanning software works.

“Another ride on the Birther roller coaster!”

That's what happens when you get a yellow bellied POS who forges his Selective Service registration and Birth Certificate, and the cowardly POS then becomes president.

Nailing down a weaseling conniving dirtbag can take time. Since we're vetting the sleazbag without his cooperation, I'd say we've done a good job at nailing the POS down in just a few years.

Crock o shit, Tex.

Any computer expert that looks at it knows its a fraud.

Not one legitimate computer expert will vouch for it.

I have 25 years in the field and I knew the document was garbage within the first week.

Every computer expert they consulted is saying this is a forgery.

Law enforcement is now calling it a forgery.

In other words, IT'S REAL BUT FAKE.

Your theory about the completely fraudulent BC (yes, that’s what it is Bunky) seems to be that since a few of the observations are incorrect, all of the other facts must be disgarded. Ridiculous. I always wonder what draws people here who claim to simply want to point out the “real” issues are being ignored. They are not. But neither am I going to ignore a self-evidently false document that probably is offering cover for a faux President. I can chew gum and walk at the same time, but thanks for worrying needlessly.

So...the all powerful Obama, who's "spent millions to hide his birth certificate", with his “corrupt Hawaiian officials” accomplices, and the full resources of the executive branch, including the CIA, and according to birthers, corrupt judges, couldn't find a forger smart enough to merge layers in Photoshop before saving the file?

This forger picked the absolute worst method possible to forge a document, by cutting and pasting different elements from other documents and layering them to create a Frankenstein birth certificate. This somehow makes sense to you when the corrupt Hawaiian officials could have simply forged a new... perfect... document.

You're saying Obama hired the Orly Taitz of forgers?

OkeeDokee.

I read your Nat. Rev. article, and of course it’s BS, like everything else you post. Here, as an example, is some of the comments at that bottom of the ridiculous screed...

UTTERLY RIDICULOUS! The explanation in this article is ludicrous! A document that is scanned - as a real birth certificate would be - would never generate layers in any software, least of all Illustrator. These are opposing file types. A scan is a bitmap (pixel-based) format, but Illustrator is a vector (EPS) based format. Scans have only one layer. Period! Additionally, any document scanned with an OCR (optical character recognition) software will only generate a text (txt, rtf, etc.) file and ignore all graphic content.

I am an award-winning graphic designer with 30+ years experience. I have been using both Illustrator and Photoshop since they were introduced in the 80’s. In fact I personally post-produced the first Illustrator88 instructional video as a sub-contractor to Mountain View-based Adobe Sys.

Whomever was in charge of the fabrication of this wanna-be birth certificate is a technical moron. Even my first year graphic students know how to uncheck the box that says “remain editable”. This “graphics” person should be fired and the White House should own up to this colossal deception!

As you can see, months after the article professionals have had time to examine and consider the facts, and they all can easily conclude that Obama is a fraud and his BC is a an OBVIOUS fake.
