Notice the difference between Obama's certification of nomination by the Democratic Party in Hawaii and the last two Presidential nominees before Obama for the Democratic Party in Hawaii. It is interesting that the Democratic Party in Hawaii had no problem stating that Al Gore in 2000 and John Kerry in 2004 "are legally qualified to serve under the provisions of the United States Constitution" but for Obama in 2008 would only state "are legally qualified to serve under the provisions of the national Democratic Party...".
Now before you slam the birther's as right wing nuts for making issue of this do be open and ask yourself is it a fair question to ask the Democratic Party in Hawaii why? Would asking why be the natural proper journalistic conclusion to make for the differences in these certifications? It is curious. I mean it could be a typo or there could be another explanation but to be curious as to why the differences is hardly radical and bad journalism. Actually, what would be bad journalism is to not ask the next naturally curious questions as to why.
Now it could be that these documents are a hoax and if so than they need to be exposed as such and if they are Values Voter News will follow up with an update as to whether or not this is the case.2000/2004/2008 Democratic Party of Hawaii Certifications of Nomination for Presidential Candidates -
Values Voter News has been keeping an eye on this issue with not that much focus but a post here and there when something legitimate pops up. Here is what Values Voter News has concluded so far on this issue. Notice there is no conspiracy involved. Below is just copied and pasted from part of post titled Video: Chris Matthews reports that only 42% of Americans believe Obama was born in the US according to a new CNN poll. So why do Americans have this view?
To the left is the Certificate of Live Birth that our President posted on his site as proof that he is a natural born citizen.
Fact 1: The Certificate of Live Birth that Obama posted on his web site being a "copy" proves there is an "original birth certificate/vital records". This naturally led many to seek the original to evidence forth the copy.
Fact 2: Dr Fukino states she verified the existence of the "original birth certificate/vital records" in '08. This naturally led many to seek to know what the "original birth certificate/vital records" actually read.
Fact 3: Dr Fukino states she has verified what is said on the "original birth certificate/vital records" namely that Obama is born in Hawaii and is a natural born citizen in '09. This is naturally leading many to want to see it for themselves or to have further verification by more than one.
Fact 4: The Obama Administration has yet to release those documents to the public or anyone else as far as we know nor has Dr Fukino. This is naturally leading many to question why.
Fact 5: So the best evidence we have of Obama's natural born citizenship via his original birth certificate/vital records to date is the statement by Dr Fukino.
Now wherever you stand on this issue is up to you. These are the facts. If Dr Fukino's word is good enough for you and you think her word should settle this issue then fine. But none the less at least be understanding of those who seek better evidence when it is available to seek.
So now the obvious and fair question that Big Media and those on the left on this issue are ignoring is: Why not release the evidence? This is not about a conspiracy but rather transparency. Why not release the information to the public or to a non-partisan independent group of some sort or to respected members of both sides to verify? Is it really enough to go on this Dr's word?
So in conclusion what is at base from the perspective here at Values Voter News that is fueling the fire of this controversy is the Administration's and Big Media's inability to put out the flames by actually fanning those flames themselves by:
#1) not asking the right question of the Obama Administration which is: Why not release the original birth certificate/vital records that Dr Fukino has confirmed exists that according to her proves Obama's natural born citizenship?
#2) whenever the issue is brought up by a better informed/understanding of the issue media the Obama Administration continues to fan the flame by failing to answer the above question by continually pointing to the birth certificate they produced online which totally skirts the question.
#3) Big Media only repeats what the Administration set forth in their answer and refuses to seek the best evidence available that is known to exist.
So if Big Media and the Obama Administration want this to go away then they can take some steps forward by 1) asking and understanding the right question then 2) answering the question and 3) to seek and reveal the best evidence that exists.
Again it's about transparency not conspiracy and seeking the best possible evidence when known to exist.
