You honestly believe that modifying the image of a document invalidates the original document?


Well, if the document says it, I guess so.

Look, I don't have any doubt Obama was born in Hawaii. The birth certificate is apparently not evidence of it, from what little I've read, in that they are not the same as a birth certificate issued in say, Texas. Prior to a particular date, they did not have any repository of such data.

The more compelling evidence, IMO, is the birth announcement which appeared contemporaneously in the newspaper.

But I don't think it is too much to require that a president of the United States, when there is some doubt as to his qualification, should present an official copy of the birth certificate, which apparently should be on file with the hospital. It is a simple thing and he ought to do it just to end the debate. Too many people are skeptical of his bona fides already.

Just end it.
