It didn’t take long for some of President Obama’s doubters to claim the long-awaited birth certificate posted online by the White House on Wednesday had been altered or might be a fake.
But a leading software expert says there’s no doubt about its authenticity, and he dismisses claims of fraud as flat-out wrong.
The doubters have latched onto the idea that Adobe Illustrator — the premier program for computer graphic artists — “reveals” evidence of document manipulation in the Obama birth certificate. They note Illustrator reveals nine separate layers of the document, and claim it’s “proof” the file has been altered.
But that’s not so, says Jean-Claude Tremblay, a leading software trainer and Adobe-certified expert, who has years of experience working with and teaching Adobe Illustrator.
“You should not be so suspicious about this,” Tremblay told FoxNews.com, dismissing the allegations.

He said the layers cited by doubters are evidence of the use of common, off-the-shelf scanning software — not evidence of a forgery. “I have seen a lot of illustrator documents that come from photos and contain those kind of clippings—and it looks exactly like this,” he said.
Tremblay explained that the scanner optical character recognition (OCR) software attempts to translate characters or words in a photograph into text. He said the layers cited by the doubters shows that software at work – and nothing more.

It’s as genuine as the Vince Foster suicide note.
Thus spake Fox News, the “fair and balanced network.” I didn’t read the rest. Did they give anyone else a crack at this “expert’s” analysis?
So no one finds it odd that the registrar is Uk La Lee?
And we are still f&#king around with the ambiguity and obfuscations of computer files exactly why?
Where is the original PAPER document?
Interesting as other experts are saying it is fake. I am going with them because I just can’t trust any man named Jean-Claude.

In short, he is a paid Obama hack.
Why was father listed as being 25 when he was 27?

LOL! I have a coworker who was born and raised in Hawaii, and she says "ukulele" means "makes fleas jump off."
Less than 60 seconds ago my formerly Obama loving son came home from work. He opened the door and said, "I agree with you." (He triumphantly sent me an email whenever the thing was released. At first, I told him I was withholding judgment; and then later, when I decided it was bogus, I let him know.) So I asked him, "About what?"
"The birth certificate. It's all over YouTube," he told me.
And maybe it is. I still think that Obama is going to be able to make this thing stick. (The flaws are no where near as obvious (yet) as with the Dan Rather memo.) But maybe I'm wrong.

Obama’s playing with you, that’s why. He put it out at the time when it would be most advantageous to him. He had no legal duty to Lakin or anyone else.
Birth certificate may be real but BO’s fake.
Ok, so if one of us serfs were to submit a document to the government in the same condition, do you think it would be considered legitimate?
I thought that was explained away as the name being ‘Vick Lee’ or something to that effect.
You need to get up to speed. Several other BCs signed with the same name have come forward. If there is any question, it is whether the signature on the Bamie BC is actually the same as these others.

Seems really simple to me.
