Now, the peculiar thing about that -- is that I've read a few posts elsewhere on Free Republic (over the months...) that have said that to get a passport that you have to have a long form birth certificate, while others said no you didn't.

I have an Illinois birth certificate that differs in no noticeable way from the Hawaiian short form, except that it says "Illinois" at the top and not "Hawaii." I used it to get a passport in California with no problem whatsoever.

You were saying ...

Well then..., taking your own experience and your ability to get a U.S. Passport with that short form, then I would have to say that it's "definitive"...

Thanks...

Colorado also uses the same form. My original "long form" has been lost and when I needed a replacement, I received by mail a stamped, certified computer-generated short form identical in format to the "factcheck" BC and this is what I used to enlist in the military, get my passport and get married. For whatever reason, the State Department requires long forms from only those born in Texas and California.

Then Obama should have no problem showing that short form COLB he put online to a court to end this matter, but he does have a problem.

Does your Illinois birth certificate show the name of the hospital you were born in? Mine does.
