Quote from trefoil:
Obviously, the State Dept would have known about that Hawaii statute, and would not have accepted merely the Certification doc to issue Obama his passport.
They require an actual birth certificate with a raised seal from the issuing state before they will give you a passport.
Obviously, they got one.
Hawaii also says they've got the docs from the hospital he was born in, in Hawaii.
The only reason to question this is if you are, either
a) a sore loser, or
b) no respecter of democracy.
Of course, being in a) does not exclude the possibility that you are also the kind of scum who inhabits class b). And vice versa.
