“Have you seen a whole newspaper with the announcement?”

Summary
This Honolulu Advertiser announcement of Barack Obama’s Aug 4, 1961 birth was published August 13, 1961 on page B-6. It is available only on microfilm in Hawaii libraries. The announcement is 4th from the bottom of the left hand column.
“Do you know that when a birth is registered an announcement is automatic? “
They are automatic, but only from hospitals, not from people off the street:
“Birthers wave off those birth announcements, saying that Obama family members 48 years ago could have phoned in false information to both newspapers.
Such vital statistics, however, were not sent to the newspapers by the general public but by the Health Department, which received the information directly from hospitals, Okubo said.”
False. Nowhere does the state of Hawaii allow someone to mis-state where they are born in such filings. I am sure the original birth cert is required for such filings and thus would state the correct place of birth.
“Do you know that the Obama’s and Dunhams did not live at the address listed in the papers announcement?”
You do not know that they didnt. All you have is a neighbor who doesnt remember them being there 47 years ago.
Then state this:Such vital statistics, however, were not sent to the newspapers by the general public but by the Health Department, which received the information directly from hospitals, Okubo said.”
Exactly right. Get a BC for a foreign baby and it's announced in the paper.
To get a Hawaiian BC for a foreign born baby.
Clearing the Smoke on Obama’s Eligibility: An Intelligence Investigator’s June 10 Report
I asked the Dept of Health what they currently ask for (in 2008) to back up a parent’s claim that a child was born in Hawaii. I was told that all they required was a proof of residence in Hawaii (e.g. a driver’s license [We know from interviews with her friends on Mercer Island in Washington State that Ann Dunham had acquired a driver’s license by the summer of 1961 at the age of 17] or telephone bill) and pre-natal (statement or report that a woman was pregnant) and post-natal (statement or report that a new-born baby has been examined) certification by a physician. On further enquiry, the employee that I spoke to informed me that the pre-natal and post-natal certifications had probably not been in force in the ‘60s. Even if they had been, there is and was no requirement for a physician or midwife to witness, state or report that the baby was born in Hawaii.
See? Easy.
