Apparently that is simply not true.... (Unless you can first tell me WHO you think defines what is "real" and what is NOT.) Right now though the legislatures in all the FIFTY STATES each decide what constitutes a "real birth certificate", and the US Government decides (through, for example, the State Department's written guidelines for what is acceptable proof for issuing a passport, and also through the new post-9-11 national rules governing the issuance of Drivers Licenses in the States) decides what is "real". And, of course, the Federal Court system decides.... When I say 'who decides', that is what I am pointing to: A) Legislatures in 50 States. B) Federal Government. C) Federal Courts.
