Why is there no outrage over Obama's refusal to disclose his birth certificate?Now the governor of Hawaii has "has placed the candidate's birth certificate under seal and instructed the state's Department of Health to make sure no one in the press obtains access to the original document under any circumstances.
In Kenya, [WorldNetDaily] was told by government authorities that all documents concerning Obama were under seal until after the U.S. presidentail election on November 4.
In a startling development, Obama's Kenyan grandmother has reportedly alleged she witnessed Obama's birth at the Coast Provincial Hospital in Mombasa, Kenya."

If Obama was born in Hawaii who was the presiding doctor? What was the name of the hospital?
If Obama was indeed born in Kenya, he would not be eligible to become President of the United States. US Law very clearly stipulates "If only one parent was a US citizen at the time of your birth, that parent must have resided in the United States for at least ten years, at least five of which had to be after the age of 16."
Obama's father was not a US citizen. His mother was was only 18 when he was born. Unless Obama was born in Hawaii (as has yet to be proven) he could only be a Naturalized Citizen. Naturalized Citizens are ineligible to hold the office of President.
The DNC and/or Obama should produce the birth certificate if only to end the speculation. Every other American should DEMAND the birth certificate! It is our right to know!

State declares Barack Obama's Hawaii birth certificate is genuine
By Associated Press

HONOLULU (AP) _ State officials say there's no doubt Barack Obama was born in Hawaii.
Health Department Director Dr. Chiyome Fukino said Friday she and the registrar of vital statistics, Alvin Onaka, have personally verified that the health department holds Obama's original birth certificate.
Fukino says that no state official, including Republican Gov. Linda Lingle, ever instructed that Obama's certificate be handled differently.
She says state law bars release of a certified birth certificate to anyone who does not have a tangible interest.

Obama’s Hawaii birth certificate confirmed
Pacific Business News (Honolulu)
The director of Hawaii’s Department of Health confirmed on Friday what Barack Obama has been saying all along: the presidential candidate was born in Honolulu.
“There have been numerous requests for Sen. Barack Hussein Obama’s official birth certificate,” said Chiyome Fukino. “State law prohibits the release of a certified birth certificate to persons who do not have a tangible interest in the vital record.”
Citing her statutory authority to oversee and maintain Hawaii’s vital records, Fukino said she has “personally seen and verified that the Hawaii State Department of Health has Sen. Obama’s original birth certificate on record in accordance with state policies and procedures.
“No state official, including Gov. Linda Lingle, has ever instructed that this vital record be handled in a manner different from any other vital record in the possession of the State of Hawaii,” Fukino added.
Lingle, a Republican, has been campaigning on the Mainland for Obama’s opponent, Sen. John McCain of Arizona.
Obama, a Democratic senator from Illinois, was born Aug. 4, 1961, in Honolulu. He graduated high school at Punahou School in 1979.

These two versions of the same report seem clear enough. The birth certificate is on file in Hawaii and it is valid.
However, the opponents of Obama simply will not give up. I have seen one Web comment that went along these lines: "It could have been a valid Kenyan birth certificate on file in Hawaii that the Hawaii official was talking about."
Laughable, of course, why would a Kenyan birth certificate be filed in Hawaii?
Oh, and the report that the governor of Hawaii has ordered Obama's birth records to be sealed is false. Apparently it stems from a right-wing news agency. In any case, the governor is a Republican and apparently dislikes Obama, so why should she order his records to be specially sealed? The fact is that all birth records in Hawaii are sealed.
Then why won't Obama release it to the press/public? Are they discussing the birth certificate or the Certificate of Live Birth (two VERY different things)?
