SPECIAL NOTICE - CALIFORNIA BIRTH ABSTRACTS NO LONGER ACCEPTABLE - PASSPORT APPLICANTS BORN IN CALIFORIA MUST SUBMIT LONG FORM PHOTOREPRODUCTION CERTIFIED COPIES OF BIRTH RECORDS - THE SHORT BIRTH ABSTRACT OF RECORDS ISSUED BY MANY COUNTIES AND BY THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA WILL NO LONGER BE ACCEPTABLE FOR PASSPORT PURPOSES. DUE TO COMPUTER PROGRAMMING THE BIRTH ABSTRACTS SHOW THE COUNTY OF ISSUE AS THE PLACE OF BIRTH EVEN IF THE INDIVIDUAL WAS BORN IN A FOREIGN COUNTRY AND ADOPTED IN CALIFORNIA. A BIRTH RECORD FOR PASSPORT PURPOSES MUST BE THE LONG FORM PHOTOREPRODUCTION CERTIFIED COPIES.
So is someone saying Obama was born in California?
No. Only that a lot of states (INCLUDIND HAWAII) issued COLBs SHOWING THE COUNTY OF ISSUE AS THE PLACE OF BIRTH EVEN IF THE INDIVIDUAL WAS BORN IN A FOREIGN COUNTRY. THIS WAS THE OFFICIAL POLICY OF THE STATE OF HAWAII UNDER HAWAIIAN STATUTE 338.

First of all, I made that comment about California to play dumb, like Columbo. There is a thread on the Denver forum (or maybe Colorado) about a 15 yr old who wasn't allowed to use his city-issued Texas birth certificate to get his learner's permit. He had to get the state certified certificate. So I see California's point in not accepting city-issued bcs that don't say where one was born. But there is plenty of evidence that Obama's vault certificate says he was born in Hawaii. Hopefully, I will have nothing more to say about his for a few pages.

Why not? I've already heard Kenya, Hawaii, and Canada.
California would look good on his resume. Very progressive.
