I know that my husband was born in another country and was also born at home. His parents had to register him within 10 days of his birth. If this was the case in Hawaii, there was plenty of time to fly in from somewhere else and register a baby as being born in Hawaii.

Entirely true.

And, furthermore, when you are adopted, the original is sealed. Its apparent he was adopted under the Soetero name, but he prefers the Obama name. Which doesn't explain why he doesn't simply request the original birth certificate be "unsealed" if its possible to do it.

As others have said, there is only innuendo that he may have been born overseas, and since his mother is a citizen, it may not matter. Which then provokes the question, why the phony birth certificate if it wasn't necessary?

In a lot of cases, the cover-up is worse than the thing it covers up. This may be that case. I suspect that if he accepts Clinton help, this all goes away.

” Which doesn’t explain why he doesn’t simply request the original birth certificate be “unsealed” if its possible to do it.”

I don’t think he even has to do that. All he has to say is the truth: I was born “barack h. obama”, but my name was changed when I was adopted. I prefer my birth name. Then he could say that the forgery was concocted by some of his overzealous supporters, blah, blah. blah...
This would vanish overnight.
