Values Voter News

The most popular post at Values Voter News is Snopes.com changes hospital of Obama's birth 90 minutes after WND.COM article but has no conclusive evidence of correction according to Wikipedia. where VVN has been keeping track of this issue and sticking to the facts and staying away from conspiracy ideas. Here is the latest finding just out today.



The last post on this issue was titled Steve Pearce and President Obama's original birth certificate that not even FactCheck.org, Snopes.com nor PolitiFact.com have been able to obtain. and so it appears we can add our current Government to the list of those who have yet to verify our President's original birth certificate.

"The analysis by the Congressional Research Service, a research arm of the U.S. Congress, openly admits no one in the federal government, including Congress, ever asked to see Obama's long-form, hospital-generated birth certificate. It explains no one was required to do so."-wnd.com.

I will just recopy the same argument that Values Voter News has been making for some time now that argues why this issue has yet to go away. Values Voter News asks those skeptical of "birthers" to have an openness of mind for a moment. Below are THE FACTS that many news sites seem to ignore. It is a very simple argument and easily verifiable and gives a rational reason why an 08/2010 CNN poll showed only 42% of Americans believe Obama was born in the US and it has nothing to do with race (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?).

Here we go and it is quite simple:

To the left above 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.
