Expert: No Doubt Obama's Birth Certificate Is Legit
Fox News ^ | 4/29/11 | Jana Winter

Posted on 04/29/2011 5:52:16 PM PDT by Nachum

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.

Yes they did, and I still have it up on my computer (google deleted it). I was trying to take a screen shot of it, but I have no idea how.

I saved it and emailed it to myself, but it’s so small you can barely see it. When I try to enlarge it, it gets all blurry.

I sent one to photobucket and tried to enlarge it (posted the white out layer above) but the same thing happened...blurry.

Did anybody bother checking fact check to see if they’ve ‘corrected’ their ‘official doctor of record’ on their propaganda to match the new latest official doctor of record?
Last I knew, the name of the supposed attending doc was not the same.

If she was already in Washington she wouldn’t need the mail.

If she was in HI waiting to spit the kid, there was no guarantee she would be there for the fall class.

You have to remember she also had to find a place that would accept a baby. .

If you believe she could show up one day, start school and have herself a place to live all in the same day, OK.

No, I believe that the semester started late enough in September that she would have had plenty of time to do all that in September.

There is still some “controversy” regarding the birth doctor. Earlier stuff said it was a different doctor, which makes sense since his name DOES NOT appear on the 4th layer and is very faint on the 2nd.

This 1 thing really bugs me. Even if you buy the layering thing, why would just the 1 disappear on higher resolution? Wouldn't the whole series of numbers appear and disappear as a unit with the layering hypothesis? Video of the disappearing 1 Here.

Will the 1 get The One?

So why 3 years to get it and why did they let Lakin go down in flames?

That's exactly the right question and raises a lot of suspicion.

Here is the 4 layers. Could you screen shot it or ping others who can, while it’s still available?

If you have windoze paint, you hit the print screen key, then open windoze paint.
You go to the “edit” link and tell it to paste.
Then tell it “save as”.

And we are still f&#king around with the ambiguity and obfuscations of computer files exactly why?

Where is the original PAPER document?

If he had released his original paper document, he wouldn't have such opposition. So either Obama likes his plans opposed and likes to be mistrusted or he's a total fraud.

In a sane world, Obama should be required to prove this document is not a fake, not the other way around.

Yes, I have seen the issues of ‘losing citizenship’ and agree it is not something that happens ‘automatically’ or ‘easily’ as people have indicated.

But here is the kicker. What if he INTENTIONALLY cast himself as foreign national after the age of 18? Now, you did not just ‘lose’ it. You leveraged it. If you take actions to utilize your foreign national status or to deny your US Citizenship - while you are in the US - you have now opened the door (or closed the door) to US citizenship - voluntarily, as an adult.

When in the US you must present yourself as a US citizen, even if you have valid dual citizenship. Which everyone says he had with Kenya. He likely had it with Indonesia. And it is possible that he even still has rights to British citizenship.

This is where the ‘real’ problem is. I am not personally a big fan of the out of Kenya story. I think it was adopted story by him to tie him to his drunken biological father and give him roots and background. He relished being a Kenyan, till it got in the way of being President. But really born there? Logistically - it seems a stretch. But who knows with all this smoke and mirrors. But this is creating enough smoke to keep the eyes off the issue that would be one without debate - using foreign national status for gain in college.

It was interesting and tell that when Trump was told they presented the LFBC his first words were - now where are the college records?

Lets see what happens...the fat lady is nowhere to be seen...there is some drama coming!
