If Soetoro’s grandmother filled out a form with the Hawaii Dep’t of Health in 1961, absolutely regardless of where Soetoro was actually born, the newspaper announcements would have appeared.
The newspapers’ entries were in the “Health Bureau Statistics” sections of the papers. The data came from the Hawaii Health Bureau which is what the Department of Health was called back in 1961, along with marriage certificates issued and death certificates issued. The Obama Certificate of Live Birth is signed by Stanley Ann Dunham and Dr. David A Sinclair, MD. Attending Physician at Kapi’olani Hospital. Verna K.L Lee also signed as Local Registrar.
