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.

I think you’ve created a new word! Bovine and obvious. Slang for obvious BS!
Well done!

Why do I get the ObiWan Kenobi jedhi mind-melt impression here?
“Post-modernism, where everybody decides on their own truth, doesn’t work in real life, but that’s what we’ve got in the White House right now and in government offices all over the country - people who make up their own truth as necessary so nobody can ever know anything.” -————————————————————————————
Once again, outstanding observation and insight! Butterdezillion, this very point was brought forward in a conversation I witnessed today between George Soros and Tavis Smiley on NPR. What a bizarre perspective on “developing your own truth” Soros espouses. It was truly warped. About 4-5 minutes of it and I started getting a sinking/sick feeling in the pit of my stomach and switched it off. Soros should be declared an enemy of the state. Evil, Seditious bastard!
nice try bozo, he died in 1982.
While in Hawaii, Barack Hussein Obama was born on June 18, 1934, which would make him 27 years old in 1961, not 25!
The new birth certificate is a fraud!
....uh...yeah. That’s what it says.
Born in 1936, died 1982
Makes him 25 in 1961. Just like the birth cert says.
Has this birth certificate been around?

It was on this you tube video

Yes. Been around a lot. About 20 times today in fact.
Obviously you can’t read Obot! ALL OF HIS IDENTIFICATION WHEN HE WAS IN HAWAII SHOWED THAT HE WAS BORN ON JUNE 18, 1934! YOU MUST SHOW IDENTIFICATION FOR THE BIRTH CERTIFICATE. DO THE MATH!
He did not start using the birthdate of 1936 until he went to Harvard, another year later!
They didn’t know this when they created the fraudulent documents.
Thanks. I was just curious.
You acknowledge that typewriters have tabs but on this particular document the typist just decided to tab down and center everything. Just killing time because they’re a civilian? Seriously?
I forgot to add. Quit using the phrase “I think”. Use something else.
Obot huh.......
Whatever you say there Einstein.
BTW. The mothers provide birth certificate info.
But, good luck in your battle.
It says "true copy or abstract". It's a "one size fits all" type of stamp. It means nothing.
No prob. Cruise some of the other threads. Lots of info about other certificates and which are frauds.
If, as some have claimed, the final “1” in the serial number was simply not recognized by the OCR software as text, rather than some other graphic element, the question is why? The OCR software should not have had ANY problem with it, as it might if the number had been stamped on top of some other part of the image, such as one of the boundary lines, or if there had been a stain or smear in that spot. It looks as well defined and clear as any of the other characters.
Nice work !!!!
Have some fun with it:
