Sheriff Arpaio: Obama birth certificate a ‘forgery’

134. The "original" birth certificate given to parents

at the time of birth is nothing more than a keepsake from the hospital. It is not a government record of any kind and cannot be used to obtain passports (there may be some miniscule exception, but not the rule) or any other official purpose. In order to get a certified copy of one's birth certificate, application must be made to the appropriate authorities in the state in which the person was born. The state then reaches into its vault, and after 9/11, makes a summary of the contents of the document on file (the so-called "short form&quot and certifies it to be true and correct. It's what I obtained when I wanted to apply for my passport. It's what Mr. Obama had to furnish when the election commission ok'd him to be on the ballot in the first place and which President Obama posted to his website a few years ago. When this became an issue, the Republican governor of Hawaii reached into that same vault and had a copy of the original document made which was certified by the state and the governor that it was a true copy. The original remains safely in that same vault along with the birth certificates of all the other citizens born in Hawaii.

Why don't these birfer pin-heads just come out with it: they can't stand that a black man won the election and is in the White House. Well, they're mad at the wrong person. The fact is, the American Public elected a black man who is now in the White House. So where's the poutrage against the American Public? If a majority of people thought a black man shouldn't be President, they wouldn't have elected him, right?

ARRRRGGGGGGGGGG -- this issue just pisses me off. I can understand people who are opposed to policies of the Obama Administration, but challenging his citizenship is just preposterous.
