Drew68: “And, no, I haven’t read the text of the bill. I’m just guessing that when all is said and done, abiding by the requirements will be something Obama will easily be able to do come 2012.”
Yep. You are correct. Under the proposed law, I see no reason why Obama wouldn’t qualify based on the short form (Certificate of Live Birth) that he already released.
The COLB was not released “officially” by 0bama, but by Factcheck. Second, they released an image in the internet. In a court of law, an actual paper must be shown, not an image on a computer screen.
If you check butterdezillion’s comments, and read for a bit (she also has a blog, probably on her profile page) you can read for yourself what is wrong with 0bama’s COLB as evidence “proving” a HI birth.
Since you are making a lot of comments but have little knowledge of the subject, if you are interested in the truth of the matter, do yourself a favor and read her comments and her blog. She has done heroic research into this and found evidence from the DOH in HI that the COLB is a forgery.

Obama won’t release his forged COLB to anyone who isn’t a faither, sand head or paid apologist. If that thing was real, the hard copy would have been presented to a bona fide reporter. The HI DOH has done everything it can to deflect away from the fact that they CAN’T confirm it as genuine.
What he released was a forgery. The HDOH has indirectly confirmed that fact in 2 different ways. See http://butterdezillion.wordpress.com/2010/01/11/red-flags-in-hawaii-2/
His real COLB probably looks exactly like what he posted though, with 2 changes: There is a note saying that an item from the medical portion of the BC was amended in 2006. And there is a certificate number that starts with 151-2006-xxxxxx.
And that is why he posted a forgery instead of the genuine COLB. Because that amendment shows that his birth certificate was not complete until 2006 and couldn’t be completed in 1961 because neither Obama nor his mother were in Hawaii within the first 30 days after the birth to be seen by a Hawaii doctor who could complete the BC for them.
If Obama was born in Hawaii, why couldn’t he be seen by a Hawaii doctor in the first 30 days after the birth? My sister has had 5 of her 7 children at home and has had a doctor sign the birth certificate upon examining the baby shortly after the birth. Why didn’t Ann do that if she was in Hawaii?
