Hawaii Legislature birther law has been voted on and passed. This Legislature measure allows the state of Hawaii to ignore repeated birther requests. The bill was needed because the state is receiving repeated requests over Barack Obama’s birth certificate.
Obama was born in Hawaii on August 4,1961. This is listed in public records but the birther movement has doubts. They want to see the original copy of his birth certificate.
Those that have doubts about Obama’s claim that he was really born in Kenya or Indonesia. If true, it prevents him from serving as President of the United States. Hawaii has already issued two statements confirming they have vital records proving the President is a natural-born American citizen.
President born in Honolulu
Barack Obama was born in Honolulu to a Kenyan father and an American mother. Even so, state officials say they still get between 10 and 20 emails each week seeking verification of his birth. With all the nerve, and while the surf’s up, they have to answer to make time to answer the repeated requests by the right-wing movement.
Bill Passed, Now Get Ready For Lawsuits
The new legislation in Hawaii might ward off the repeated requests, but there are lawsuits. Yes, frivolous lawsuits, challenging Obama’s qualifications for office. It is choking the court system at a time when such institutions are already strapped for resources.
Live Birth Document Released 2008
In 2008, the presidential campaign of Barack Hussein Obama released a copy of his Certificate of Live Birth. However, that proved insufficient evidence for those who believe he was born in Kenya. The White House Secretary, Robert Gibbs, also weighed in on the debate suggesting the so-called birthers would never be happy with any evidence.
