For the record, I believe Obama was born in Hawaii and could likely defend his qualifications with respect to the other questions in court...

Think it through.

Obama would not have endured and absorbed all of the negative fallout over this issue if he could actually vaporize the issue by producing the vault copy of his original birth certificate.

And, he took all that risk during the campaign, when the issue had the potential to destroy his candidacy. The incentive to produce the vault copy of his BC couldn't have been greater, yet he chose not to produce it.

Why? (insert logic)

Please note that I’m not saying that there isn’t anything interesting in his birth certificate, not any legitimate quesitons about his qualifications. It’s possible there is simply something embarassing in the birth certificate, too, but I think the newpaper birth reports are fairly strong evidence that make it most likely he really was born in Hawaii. I think the biggest problem is the Indonesian citizenship issue. If he was simply an Indonesian citizen because of his mother and adoptive father, I could see the courts giving him a pass on that. I also don’t believe the courts would say that he doesn’t qualify as a natural born citizen because his father wasn’t an American citizen. If, however, he traveled under an Indonesian passport as an Indonesian citizen as an adult, that could be a real problem.
