We don't disagree at all. I've mentioned the adoption-cover routine on HI’s part elsewhere. However, what was released is not a computer generated 2011 updated document. It is a cut-and-paste image designed to look as if it was created in 1961. I doubt there is any law against trying to make an updated BC look non-updated, so the jeopardy of whoever did it is minimal. But that is what accts for all the different pixel sizes and the (at a minimum) 3 different typewriters, etc., imho.

Adoption law makes a great effort to make sure adopted children are not aware that they are adopted. If a bunch of kids all show up to play little league and they all happen to be born the same year (as would be normal if they are all in the same grade.) then an adopted child might start wondering why his birth certificate looks different from the others.
For that reason, the standard practice is to MAKE them look correct for the year of birth. I think the Obama legal team took advantage of this routine practice for adopted person's birth certificates, to get him one that *LOOKS* normal for the time period of his birth.
