Okay. Suppose it comes out that Obama wasn't born in the hospital. What then? How exactly does that help the birther case?

What then?? Find the truth. If Obama intentionally deceived Americans by claiming to be born in a hospital in America when he knew he wasn't, then the bum has committed criminal fraud ... which would be impeachable.

Unless you have some evidence to the contrary, the law presumes that what's in the state's vital record is the truth. That is, if his long form says he was not born in the Hospital, but still says he was born in Hawaii (and the revelations of the Hawaii DOH don't leave any room to doubt that), then the presumption still is he was born in Hawaii.

If you want to say he was born elsewhere, you'll have to prove it. To this day, no credible evidence of a birth outside Hawaii has been produced (and no, transparently phony Kenyan birth certificates aren't credible evidence).

Actually, I don't think that's true. It's not criminal fraud to lie in a book or to lie to the public in speaches. Besides, he could always claim his mother concealed the truth from him and didn't find out he was born at home until now, so he wasn't really lying. And, frankly, I don't see how anyone could possibly prove otherwise.

And, frankly, I don't think many people would care wheher he was born in a hospital or at home. Though I doubt very much he was born anywhere other than Kapiolani medical center.
