Yet another strawman. It was possible ( back in 1961 ) to acquire a Certification of Live Birth; even if the child was not actually born in Hawaii.

And even if, hypothetically, you were actually prove that a past President did not actually meet all of the Constitutional requirements, well, two wrongs still don't make a right.

You might have been on to something there, except that the law you reference [§338-17.8] was not passed until the year 1982.

[§338-17.8] Certificates for children born out of State. (a) Upon application of an adult or the legal parents of a minor child, the director of health shall issue a birth certificate for such adult or minor, provided that proof has been submitted to the director of health that the legal parents of such individual while living without the Territory or State of Hawaii had declared the Territory or State of Hawaii as their legal residence for at least one year immediately preceding the birth or adoption of such child. (b) Proof of legal residency shall be submitted to the director of health in any manner that the director shall deem appropriate. The director of health may also adopt any rules pursuant to chapter 91 that he or she may deem necessary or proper to prevent fraudulent applications for birth certificates and to require any further information or proof of events necessary for completion of a birth certificate. (c) The fee for each application for registration shall be established by rule adopted pursuant to chapter 91. [L 1982, c 182, §1]
