What's probably most ironic about the bizarre "controversy" surrounding Barack Obama's birthplace is always that he's actually the only sitting President in US history to get made his birth record public (it's online for everyone to see and has been confirmed from the State of Hawaii to his real birth certificate.)

Isn't it funny how the President who has provided more proof than any other of his birthplace is the one who has these ridiculous rumors (including the completely insane baseless myth which he was born in Kenya) swirling around him? By funny, I mean funny "weird" more than funny "ha ha" although in a dark humor kind of way it's funny like that too.

It's clear that you've a certain segment of america population that just can't stand that a black "liberal" (he's really not particularly liberal, he'd be right of center in most Western democracies and he's a centrist in america) was elected President in November of 2008 by nearly Ten million votes. They can't stand it so much that they make up ridiculous conspiracy theories about how exactly the President is hiding his "long form birth record."

So What About this "Long Form Birth Certificate"?

There is no such thing. What these conspiracy theorists are probably referring to is the "birth certificate" that people sometimes get at a hospital (quite often complete with the baby's footprint, etc) but the truth is that kind is actually nothing more than a souvenir meant for scrapbooks and it has absolutely no legal meaning. Including the hospital souveneir is not appropriate for getting a passport, while the official state certified certificate of a birth Obama put online is.

President Barack Obama - In other words, these "birthers" (the name for the conspiracy theorists who won't admit the obvious fact that Obama came to be in Hawaii) won't accept the state run certified birth certificate that Obama has put online because they'd rather visit a meaningless souvenir instead. It's such a ridiculous concept as to be truly hilarious.

There's Just one Type Of State Certified Birth record

When you contact the condition of your birth and ask for a certified copy of your birth certificate they send you a particular type of "certificate of live birth" (each state's forms are particular compared to that state.) In Hawaii they give you the type of document that Obama put up. That's it. There's no other kind. There's nothing he's hiding. Actually, as mentioned at the beginning of this short article, he's shown a lot more than any President ever.

When you ask for your birth record there's no box you look for "short form" or "long form." There's just one official birth certificate document in a condition at any one time (these forms may change over the years of course, which is why many people show examples of forms with increased or less info on them, even in exactly the same state.)

This Is About The "Birthers" Being Anti-American

election 2012 - So as you can see there's absolutely nothing to this what are known as "issue." It's a complete fantasy within the minds of some conspiracy theorists referred to as "birthers" who are looking for any type of loophole they can find to overturn the democratic will of the American people. To me you cannot get anymore Anti-American than that. If The president isn't their President, then they aren't Americans.

You don't have to like President Obama's politics (it's our right as Americans to disagree with the President) but you should at least respect the office it comes with he won the election by nearly 10 million votes.
