Here is the link to the FactCheck article where they clearly state they inspected the original printed birth certificate Obama requested in 2007, Hawaii printed, and he received. Nowhere do they state that it is the original long-form. In fact, Factcheck clearly states that Hawaii does not offer ANYONE the long form certificate, only a short form COLB. Perhaps that is because Hawaii no longer uses physical long-form certificates because they went paperless in 2001!

They did not inspect the ORIGINAL Birth certificate. They inspected the electronic file of the real certificate.
We beg to differ. FactCheck.org staffers have now seen, touched, examined and photographed the original birth certificate
“Therefore, I as Director of Health for the State of Hawai‘i, along with the Registrar of Vital Statistics who has statutory authority to oversee and maintain these type of vital records, have personally seen and verified that the Hawai‘i State Department of Health has Sen. Obama’s original birth certificate on record in accordance with state policies and procedures.

“I, Dr. Chiyome Fukino, Director of the Hawaii State Department of Health, have seen the original vital records maintained on file by the Hawaii State Department of Health verifying Barrack Hussein Obama was born in Hawaii and is a natural-born American citizen.
I have nothing further to add to this statement or my original statement issued in October 2008 over eight months ago,” Fukino said, in hopes of ending the controversy surrounding Obama’s citizenship.

Emphasis mine. She never said anything about pulling a physical form out of a file cabinet and inspecting it. She said she inspected the certificate they have on record in accordance with Hawaiin policies and procedures.
What are Hawai'i's policies and procedures? To store birth certificates in electronic form and print out a COLB when a party with a tangible interest requests it.
I have answered your questions, now let's see if you can answer mine...
Why is it you don't believe: 2 birth announcements in two separate papers (one issued by relatives and one issued by the hospital), a COLB, the statement from Hawaiin officials clearly stating he is a natural born citizen, and the testimony from someone who remembers Obama's birthday?
Why do you throw your belief behind blogs that talk talk about how Jews are evil, the holocaust is a myth, and African Americans are dirty, and dismiss sources that counter the Kenyan birth myth?
Interesting, to say the least.

Where is the birth certificate
There are others but I'm sure you can find them.
Let's not forget the conspiracy:
forged birth certificate
Y'know, we'd all probably be satisfied with the easily reproduced COLB put online months ago, if it weren't for the myriad of other inconsistencies surrounding the past of Barack Obama. The foreign exchange student that is a natural born citizen with 183 social security numbers and 478 places of simultaneous residence, who's home village in Kenya is erecting a monument at his other place of birth.
Without all that rust, the COLB would be more than satisfactory. Add all the other discrepancies though, and people want what he has sealed, to be unsealed, and they want to know why he'd seal it, then show us a reproduction. Any free-thinking individual would want the same.

And neither is barack obama. Since all "evidence" that points in that direction consists of blog posts, wich, even if true, wouldn't hurt his standing. If one of your parents is an american, you are too, wether you like it or not. sorry.
Edit to add:
Ok. Maybe read to fast on that one then and i apologize. I am glad we both agree that the level of evidence for *any* crime should be a bit higher than mere hearsay.

All that is required is for the parent or guardian to provide something saying they were legal residents of Hawaii for at least a year preceding the birth or adoption of a child for that child to receive a Hawaiian birth certificate. [edit on 28-7-2009 by Jenna]

Not true.
CASE CLOSED. THIS OP IS COMPLETE MADE UP BS. NOW DEBUNKED.
Maya Soetoro does NOT have a Hawaiin COLB that shows her born there.
NOWHERE HAS ANYONE EVEN SHOWN A LINK SUPPORTING THE SAME....JUST BLOGGERS STATING IT.
President Obama....IF HE WAS BORN OUTSIDE HAWAII HIS CERTIFICATE WOULD SAY SO....PROOF?

Heard this on the radio today.
Maya Soetoro was born to Indonesian businessman Lolo Soetoro and American cultural anthropologist Ann Dunham and half-sister to the 44th President of the United States, Barack Obama. While living in Indonesia, she was home schooled by her mother and then attended Jakarta International School and returned to Hawaii and attended the private Punahou School in Honolulu, Hawaii, graduating in 1988.
Besides being the First Sister Maya has a HawaiiaCertification of Live Birth despite be born in Jakarta Indonesia. Supposedly this certificate was used by the Daily Kos to forge an Obama version. Anyone find it odd that Maya, undisputedly born in Indonesia, would have the same type of document as Barack Obama to forge?
Here's the link to the article: Link Here

I'm glad you debunked it by just your words. All you have for proof that this story is incorrect is your opinion that the OP is false. Wow, that is such a high level of proof.
Recently FactCheck representatives got a chance to spend some time with the birth certificate, and we can attest to the fact that it is real and three-dimensional and resides at the Obama headquarters in Chicago. We can assure readers that the certificate does bear a raised seal, and that it's stamped on the back by Hawaii state registrar Alvin T. Onaka (who uses a signature stamp rather than signing individual birth certificates). We even brought home a few photographs.
The document is a "certification of birth," also known as a short-form birth certificate. The long form is drawn up by the hospital and includes additional information such as birth weight and parents' hometowns. The short form is printed by the state and draws from a database with fewer details. The Hawaii Department of Health's birth record request form does not give the option to request a photocopy of your long-form birth certificate, but their short form has enough information to be acceptable to the State Department. We tried to ask the Hawaii DOH why they only offer the short form, among other questions, but they have not given a response.

It proves NOTHING regarding the OP.
You must have your rose colored 'Messiah' glasses on.

It's like talking to mud.
The Hawaii Department of Health explains that if someone that was not born in Hawaii applies for a COB and recieves one then that COB will state the same....that they were born somewhere else.

It is so much fun when birthers tell the truth by accident.
You don't believe your own BS about him being born somewhere else, but rather are clinging to the ...."there is so much we don't know about this scary man"....type of attack.
Let me answer that honest question for you...the nature of that question will always be unanswered. You will never know everything about someone, not even yourself.
He has writtten books about his life and his biography and his opinions have been scrutinized more thoroughly than any other politician alive. ...not becuase he is black though...right? Not because he has an unusual name? or that he is hoping to genuinely change the status qou?
No..never...you just want answers to every minutia that you feel entitled to and until then you will call him names and make up lies about him.
Birthers are nothing more than hateful fringe bullies...never having evolved past a high-school mentality. A not-so-sophisticated all out attack on anyone different than yourselves...in race, name, opinions etc..
Intolerance expressed through propaganda.
If you want to know whether his mother had a excessive bleeding during delivery or if he was born late or premature...tough s#$%. Enough already. He doesn't owe you people answers to those questions.
And to the questions he does owe you answers to ...he has given them...AD NASEUM
He has provided more proof that he is who he says he is than any president or candidate in history.

again for those who don't remember - Fact Check is run by Annenberg. Obama was on the board of directors. Annenberg is a major $$$ donor to Obama's campaign.
