What if there is no proof that Obama is NOT a native born US citizen?

What if no one can decide the definition of “natural born?”

If there is no legal definition, and the case defaults to the law about “native born”, and there’s no way to prove he is NOT, then what?

His mother’s and grandparents residences, attendance at college, and other small items establish Obama’s PRESENCE in the US as an infant. Granted he could have been a week or two old before he actually arrived, but if there’s no way to prove otherwise, then I think it defaults to the US Constitution’s failure to define natural born or to establish a body to oversee eligibility.

All he has to say is “there is no original birth certificate. It was lost. But, we have all this circumstantial and testimonial evidence.”

[All he has to say is “there is no original birth certificate.]

Then what did he use for passport ID, college applications etc. etc.?

If he wasn't born in Hawaii as claimed then that kind of decides the issue right there.

He won't be tasked to provide it, the state of Hawaii's Vital Statistics office will be. The head of the Health Department, of which Vital Statistics is a part, has already said they have "birth records". I doubt if she wants to be going to federal prison for contempt of court, or likely worse.
