THE ABOVE IS A PHOTO OF WHAT OBAMA RELEASED.

Here’s the long-form birth certificate, so birthers can get to work on explaining why we now need a photograph of President Obama’s parents standing in front of Kapiolani hospital with a copy of the August 4, 1961 edition of the Honolulu Star Advertiser in one hand and a complete genome in the other.
Here’s White House Communications Director Dan Pfeiffer’s full statement on the matter:
In 2008, in response to media inquiries, the President’s campaign requested his birth certificate from the state of Hawaii. The state sent the campaign the President’s birth certificate, the same legal documentation provided to all Hawaiians as proof of birth in state, and the campaign immediately posted it on the internet. That birth certificate can be seen here (PDF).
When any citizen born in Hawaii requests their birth certificate, they receive exactly what the President received. In fact, the document posted on the campaign website is what Hawaiians use to get a driver’s license from the state and the document recognized by the Federal Government and the courts for all legal purposes. That’s because it is the birth certificate. This is not and should not be an open question.
The President believed the distraction over his birth certificate wasn’t good for the country. It may have been good politics and good TV, but it was bad for the American people and distracting from the many challenges we face as a country. Therefore, the President directed his counsel to review the legal authority for seeking access to the long form certificate and to request on that basis that the Hawaii State Department of Health make an exception to release a copy of his long form birth certificate. They granted that exception in part because of the tremendous volume of requests they had been getting. President Barack Obama’s long form birth certificate can be seen here (PDF):
At a time of great consequence for this country – when we should be debating how we win the future, reduce our deficit, deal with high gas prices, and bring stability to the Middle East, Washington, DC, was once again distracted by a fake issue. The President’s hope is that with this step, we can move on to debating the bigger issues that matter to the American people and the future of the country.
And here’s the White House’s correspondence with the Hawaii State Department of Health.
What else is happening today? Donald Trump is going to New Hampshire.
It DOES say Certificate of Live Birth at the top. How should the long form birth certificate look like? Any idea?
0bama doubles down and yells “SHUT UP!”
Was he also a citizen of Kenya? Do you want a citizen of Kenya as president?
That's it in a nutshell. But then, we knew that before, and it's doubtful whether anyone is going to make an issue of it. For all intents and purposes, anyone will now be able to become President of the United States, natural-born or not.
Thus far, and I will keep checking, but I find no evidence of the doctor who signed this COLB as ever existing. Will keep going thru Hawaiian records....
If the father is not a US Citizen, then the child is not a “natural born citizen”
Where in the constitution does it say this? Because this is so easy and yet people are nuts over where the president was born.
With the release of this official long form birth certificate, this really makes Trump look stupid. Earlier this week, he was just saying that he heard (through his investigators we are to assume because he did not say), that Barry’s long form birth certificate was missing. He provided no proof. Again, Trump is not a serious candidate but I’m glad he’s out there hammering the President.
I thought it was established that no one from the Obama family ever lived at “6085 Kalanianaole Highway”.
Mark Levin is a constitutional lawyer and he isn’t touching this. You would think that if Obama wasn’t a NBC and not eligible to be president he would be leading the parade.
But he isn’t. Why?
Yes, this is different from the OTHER COLB that has been foisted upon us for the last 3 years. BUT, it is still lacking information, such as length & weight of the baby. And why is it on this funky green background and looking like it is part of a roll of paper document? If it is from microfiche, you know it doesn’t look like that. What gives?
AND the signature of the issuing registrar is NOT on the document but on the fakey green background. Something is not right here.
Actually, it’s not the long form birth cert.
It’s like me taking a picture of an orange and saying “here’s an apple”.
the ink on this form is too fresh for me.
Good point. In the sixties it would have said “Negro”.
up4later
so his father’s race is “African”
Fancy that....Obama Sr, Ian Smith and P.W. Botha - all the same race!
Read the heading. It is a COLB, not long form.
It’s a photo copy of a scan or microfilche record. Here’s the request dated April 22, 2011 for the form:
