He should just say “a lot of people have raised questions they would like answered, but fankly I want to talk about more important things, like where the next president will take the country”. That leaves the questions hanging, without opening Mitt up to charges of being a “birther”. Obama is going to lose on the issues anyway.
Romney isn’t the one who should be pursuing this. If we have any rule of law in this country, the state SOS’s should be pursuing this, knowing that if they don’t their state AG’s will prosecute THEM for fraud.
And I say that because we have a now-public document from HI state registrar Alvin Onaka confirming that Obama’s HI BC is not legally valid. There’s no way that Obama can qualify when we have no way of legally determining even how old Obama is.
Onaka would not verify any birth fact about Obama, including all the critical ones - date of birth, city and island of birth, mother’s name, and father’s name. He verified that those claims are on the BC they have, but he would not verify that Obama’s claims are actually true. The only reason allowable by law for him to not verify those facts upon request by a qualified requestor is if he CANNOT certify that the birth really happened that way. If the claims are on the BC they’ve got, the only reason left for him to not be able to verify those things is if the record they have is not legally valid.
This document by Onaka has been made public, and no SOS or state AG has any excuse to accept an Official Certification of Nomination that can be known immediately as perjurious, since nobody in the country can lawfully swear that Obama is eligible or the “duly chosen candidate of the DNC” given that any genuine BC Obama could have shown them would be legally non-valid.
IOW, it is an open public fact at this point that Obama has no legally-determined birth facts based on a HI BC. The cat is out of the bag in a published legal document straight from HI state registrar Alvin Onaka. At this point any lawyer who treats Obama as if he was eligible is engaging in open fraud.
There is no way that Mitt Romney should have to even touch this, if we have a system that functions at all.
