Birtherism

An AP story this morning says that anyone can walk into a vital records office in Honolulu and examine a binder that contains an index of all persons born in Hawaii. This index contains Obama's name and DOB. Also available according to the AP is newspaper birth announcements. Original birth documents are never released, only copies.

I don't know what's in the new book cited earlier in this blog, but if I were looking for birth information for any person, that would be enough to satisfy me. See also here.
