Katelew this is the crux of the argument as I understand it.

The "Certification of Live Birth" posted online and widely touted as "Obama's birth certificate" does not in any way prove he was born in Hawaii, since the same "short-form" document (is/was?) easily obtainable for children not born in Hawaii.

The true "long-form" birth certificate – which includes information such as the name of the birth hospital and attending physician – is the only document that can prove Obama was born in Hawaii, but to date he has not permitted its release for the public or press.

In a nutshell...Obama supporters often do not realize the difference, or are ok with the rubber stamped response that he provided a certified legal document, which is true but possibly misleading.

Birthers will not accept that the legal document (Cert. of Live Birth) actually provides proof of where he was born, because the young state of Hawaii in the early 60's was known to issue Cert. of Live Birth by request with just a signature from parent or legal guardian, as I understand it.
