Is Obama’s Birth Certificate a Forgery?
If you go to Obama’s website, fightthesmears.com, you will notice that he claims to have released his birth certificate and even provides a link with a copy of it for proof.
However, if you look closely, you will notice that the font is problematic in that the only typewriter available at that time which Mrs. Bulldog and I could think of that would be able to duplicate such a font is the IBM Selectric which was introduced on… Drum roll please…. July 23, 1961 – Obama was born August 4th, 1961 and the birth certificate featured on Obama’s website was filed on August 6th, 1961…
It seems odd to us that a Hospital in Hawaii would have had access to such a typewriter just a couple of weeks after its introduction…
It may be nothing, but it piqued our curiosity and so, after a little googling, we discovered an article from the future (June 20th) on Townhall.com that seems to cast doubt on Obama’s birth certificate.
Now, I’m not saying that Obama is lying, but he is a politician and there are some apparently interesting inconsistencies in his birth certificate that need clarification by unbiased experts more qualified than us before we’ll give him the benefit of the doubt:
Was Obama’s “Certificate of Birth” manufactured?

The Daily Kos blog has posted a JPG that allegedly is Barack Obama’s “Certificate of Birth.” From a detailed analysis of the image and the text, it looks like it was created by a graphics program, and is not a true copy of an original, certified document.
I’ve been working with computers, printers, and typewriters for over 20 years, and given a set of printed letters, I can discern what kind of device made them. Printer output is quite different from the text created by a graphics program, and even if a document looks “official,” it may not be.
The “Certificate of Birth,” which I will call “COB,” is posted on the Kos website as a color JPG. The reason for making it a color JPG, IMHO, is to induce the viewer to believe that this is a genuine copy of an original document — something that a black & white, or even greyscale, reproduction would not convey as well.
Basically, anyone could have produced this document on his or her own computer, and I’ll tell you why.
[Click on Image to Enlarge]
As represented by the JPG, the “original” COB seems to be a sheet of paper measuring 8.09″ x 7.90″ with a green “Rattan” pattern embedded in, or printed on, the paper and a “Bamboo mat” pattern for its border:
At the bottom of the JPG image, reading right from left, one can see following text:
OHSM 1.1 (Rev. 11/01) Laser This copy serves as prima facie evidence of the fact of birth in any court proceeding. [HRS 338-13(b), 338-19]
There are a lot of problems with this statement, foremost of which is that the text in this document were produced by a graphics program and not a laser print, or any other printer, for that matter.
If the letters were made by a laser printer, you would be able to see the background, the pattern, through the spaces of the letters.
Click Here to Continue Reading this at Town Hall
Update: Here is a copy of a Hawaiian Birth Certificate. These are not photo-copies of the original, but are “duplicates” printed on a laser printer (note the lower left hand corner where it says rev. 11/01 Laser).
So, that explains the font problem, however, take notice that the characters do not have the fringing problem associated with Obama’s record of birth that blocks out the background of the certificate. Also, in the following photo, notice the raised seal that is clearly visible and the fold lines from mailing the birth certificate. Not so on Obama’s… Bottom line, I’m starting to suspect that Obama’s record of birth has been created with the help of a photoshop type program…
Any one out there with experience in this field care to comment, or is it time I put my tin foil hat on?

What are we to expect? A media contrived fraud must also come complete with a fake birth certificate. It makes total sense.
19 June, 2008 at 5:00 pm
here’s an update from LGF that’s a pretty good explanation.
UPDATE at 6/12/08 10:21:56 am:
LGF reader Jinxmedic has some more information:
A “certificate of live birth” is a government extract of the original birth certificate filed with the state or commonwealth. The certificate shown on Kos’ page is what you would get if you applied for a duplicate of an existing birth certificate, in the event that you needed it for employment or identification, or whatever. It is NOT a copy of the original document, simply the extracted information printed onto a proprietary paper at the time of the request. So, yes, a certificate of live birth from 1961 can be authentic, printed via Microsoft Word with a laser printer.
That said
1. why is the certificate no. field blanked out?
2. is the seal authentic?? Does it have an authentic government seal?
In Massachusetts at least, such a document must have an official government seal to be used as a legal document.
3. At the bottom of the certificate, it states “any alterations invalidate this certificate ” Since the certificate no field is blanked out, this PICTURE does not represent a valid certificate (tho the certificate itself may be valid).
4. Why is there no date of issue of this document…which would tell us approximately when it was requested.

JMB,
Thanks for the info. I didn’t know that you could get a “duplicate” of your birth certificate.
That would explain the font.
What started this whole thing between Mrs. Bulldog and I was that last year, I had to replace my birth certificate, and it was a photocopy of the original with the official raised seal on it.
When I saw Obama’s, my wife and I were amazed at how “modern” the type looked in comparison to my own birth certificate from about the same year…
Thanks for clearing the air.
Cheers

Look at the COB above, and then at the alleged document of Obama’s birth.
Pay special attention to the border, and to the way the vertical and horizontal portions overlap at the corners of Obama’s, but NOT on the real one below it.
Obama’s is also missing the embossed seal and the dates and signatures.
Also see the comments here…
http://polarik.blogtownhall.com/2008/06/20/was_obamas_certificate_of_birth_manufactured.thtml
It’s a cheap a forgery as was Dan Rather’s “fake but true” lie about Bush.
20 June, 2008 at 3:10 am
Tin foil hat, the state of Hawaii has said it’s an authentic birth certificate.
20 June, 2008 at 8:45 am
ER,
How did they explain the discrepancy with the field labeled “Date Filed by Registrar” on one birth certificate and on another: “Date Accepted by State Registrar.”
Both Birth Certificates are OHSM 1.1 (Rev. 11/01) LASER, so I’m not understanding – why the field discrepancy between the two?
3 October, 2008 at 3:12 am
Even if Obama’s Hawaiian birth certificate were real (which it aint), there is still the fact that his mother remarried an Indonesian man and moved to Indonesia where Obama was adopted by his step father and became a natural citizen of Indonesia. If he had US citizenship then, he lost it. He never filed for U.S. citizenship when he turned 18 and never renounced his foreign citizenship so, as far as I can tell he’s an illegal alien. He’s not even qualified to be a senator.

TheNightFly,
Right!
Here is a legal brief we posted around midnight that PROVES he isn’t a U.S. citizen:

The signature of the State Registrar is missing. You should be able to see it bleeding through the back.
On one I have it is on the front, but it is from 1993. Obama’s is a “copy”, but what they do is just print another one. Even though this is the case it should have the Registrar’s signature, the embossed seal, and the date certified by the Registrar. Obama’s is NOT CERTIFIED by the State Registrar. The Registrar’s statement is “I certify that this is a true copy of the record on file at the Hawaii State Department of Health” and it should be signed “Alvin T. Onaka.. Phd.”
22 October, 2008 at 6:30 pm
Yeshuanation,
The hard-copy of the Certificate of Live Birth looks pretty convincing.
Here’s a photo of it:
http://doctorbulldog.wordpress.com/files/2008/10/birth_certificate_2.jpg
The real issue is that Obama refuses to release his vault (long form) Birth Certificate. There are currently four lawsuits in court requesting Obama produce said document.
As of today, Obama is STILL fighting tooth and nail in court to keep from having to release his vault birth certificate.
That certainly does raise a red flag, when all he has to do is produce it, and EVERYONE will shut up. Instead, he and the DNC continue wasting time and money in an effort to hide Obama’s vault birth certificate.
No doubt, there is something VERY interesting on that certificate!!!
Cheers
22 October, 2008 at 6:43 pm
I didn’t see any mention of the “June 6, 2007″ bleeding through on the back. This would show when Obama obtained his cert. of live birth. This doesn’t really mean much, except that he will need to provide his birth certificate, not cert. of live birth for us to believe him.
29 October, 2008 at 11:16 am
b4rton said: “he will need to provide his birth certificate, not cert. of live birth for us to believe him.”
The Hawaii State website clearly says that their official birth certificate says “Certificate of Live Birth” on the top (as do many other states) I’m providing the URL so you can check.
http://hawaii.gov/dhhl/applicants/appforms/applyhhl
Notice, it describes the “Certificate of Live Birth” as the original, official birth certificate.
Newsweek also reported on this:
http://www.newsweek.com/id/154599
There is no difference between a birth certificate and a COLB. It’s just a matter of what title the state puts on the top (just like my Driver’s License actually says “Auto Driver License” at the top. That doesn’t mean they’re two different things) The fact that it has become “common knowledge” that there is a difference, and that people are offering detailed discriptions of a difference that doesn’t exist, just goes to show the lengths that the anti-obama are going to find something bad to say about him.
29 October, 2008 at 11:33 am
Anchan,
You certainly are quick to regurgitate the kool-aid.
Why don’t you explain to us what a vaulted Birth Certificate is?
Better yet, here is a copy of a Hawaiian vault Birth Certificate from 1963:
http://doctorbulldog.files.wordpress.com/2008/10/hawaii-birth-certificate-1963.jpg
Now, THAT is what WE want to see! So, NO the COLB IS NOT the ORIGINAL Birth Certificate.
The ORIGINAL, or vault Birth Certificate has the name of the Hospital and the attending physician on it.
One thing that many are overlooking is that Hawaiian laws are such that ANYONE can get a Hawaiian COLB issued in their name at any age, just as long as they provide a “witness” to the birth.
So, quit spreading the lies from the MSM – who are in Obama’s pocket.
19 November, 2008 at 2:57 pm
That last birth certificate posted by Dr Bulldog is exactly what it should look like. If you loose that and obtain a “copy” as i did several times, its an exact replica of the original for the expect ion its on the town halls official letterhead and with a raised seal. I just looked at my copy, i was born in 78 and have that old font style..just reprinted on new paper, with the date printed.
Also as mentioned another good point the “real” photo shows the document with 2 fold marks-the reprint has nothing…way to clean. Not to mention the “real folded one” just looks like someone snapped a real shot and photoshoped it. Also as stated above when you scan/copy a legal paper such as that-it usually shows a watermark or obvious signs its a copy- like the 2nd one turned almost black.
FAKE FAKE FAKE…cmon its a little convenient he will only show a digital copy.

Wasn’t hawaii a state starting in the sixties? This “Real” COB has a date of 1930, and says state of hawaii on top. I could be wrong, but it is worth sorting out. (His COB is still junk, see syc1959 on youtube).
1 March, 2009 at 1:43 am
Anonymous Person,
Hawaii became a state in 1959, I think. 1930 was when the person in question was born and the birth registered. The COB was likely issued after Hawaii achieved statehood. I can’t read the date on it to tell when it was issued. I think it is genuine, as it clearly has the seals and signature verifying its authenticity, which Obama’s document lacks.
1 March, 2009 at 6:07 pm
Hi. I’m the paralegal/secretary in DC in 1961 who
knew straight off the document O. was proffering was a fraud, and could only have been done with the complicit help of Hawaian officials within the Bur. of Vital Statistics who trumpted the whole thing up on a newer version of typewriter than existed August 4 1961. I’m sure a frantic check of thrift shope and such was done trying to find the exact older models used for years, probably, in Hawaii prior to them being able to afford any IBM’s–which was always Cadillac typing for years and years until it became mainstream probably mid 70’s. I typed on my first one in 1977 as a legal aid secretary and it was like dying and going to heaven from the old days of manuals. Note: I was typing as a Kelly Girl in WASHINGTON DC in 1961. IBM selectrics weren’t even used yet in the IBM office, because I had a short stint there and my typing was horrible and on a good old manual at that.
I put this info out all over the place because I don’t have the wherewithall to get my act together and put a website up. If “Mrs. Bulldog” actually did find it, then she’s my soul sister. But I do believe you are the only person to pick it up and fly with it as I was desperately putting out the message to so do.
Now. Will you please help me go the next step. First, I will work on locking down info at IBM about the actual details, provided we are not actually dealing with a sci-fi type conspiract if global–and I mean global–proportions, and insiders at IBM have doctored changes in their archives. Barring that absurdity AT THIS POINT AT LEAST then it can be proven Hawaian authorities provided O with a bogus new deal after the lawsuits started.
In case no one has noticed, such activity is at least felony misdeamors, if not class 1-2 felony, period.
Also need to look up what I would be charged with if I typed up my own document and then submitted it to any govermental agency. With a car, this is definitely a felony misdeamor.
Since you have put this out, does Berg know? I emailed him and Corsi under another email account, lost the password and will never know if they answered me. YOU ARE THE ONLY ONE I CAN FIND, right? Or are others also spreading this around. It needs to be spread everywhere.
I have a next step I would like to discuss with you. It was premised on someone like you publishing the IBM smoking gun, standing over the dead body, as I see it, on the net in the first place so the next step could be taken.
Look, a million monkeys could write shakespeare, but if they didn’t, you are very important to me because I only generate ideas, and if it doesn’t involve an animal cruelty issue, I tend to drift back to real life and do nothing.
Want to really set a bon fire under some bottoms?
Then please get back to me and will you please speak in code because we are all walking into areas real angels probably are smart enough to stay out of. This is NOT your father’s America. I see it as slowly, rather quickly at that, morphing into Putin’s Russia. And that’s not a happy place or a place to discuss much reality.
Get back to me please.
1 March, 2009 at 6:15 pm
disregard my prior posting. Just having some fun on a boring winter’s day, and went to send before I could erase and move on to stock news. Any resemblance to characters living or dead is purely coincidental, as they say at the end of a movie.
1 March, 2009 at 6:27 pm
Scarlett Pimpernel,
Obama’s fraudulent COLB is well known on the blogosphere, now.
Unfortunately, our government, the Supreme Court, and the Main Stream Media have chosen to ignore the issue and label us all as “tin-foil hat” types. Kind of interesting, since an AOL online poll of over one million people showed that 53 percent of America believes there is a problem with Obama’s eligibility.
Right now, there’s not much we can do but vote out the Commie Congress & Senate in 2010. Then, vote out the Oppressor in 2012. If that doesn’t work, rebellion is in order…
Cheers
P.S. – Here’s my COLB, just to prove that I’m eligible to be POTUS:

2 March, 2009 at 12:23 pm
Ah. Well, wasn’t happy to make my comments open to prowling KGBers, anxious to stifle all but socialist/humanist reguritations, but it is done.
At this moment I believe free speech still extends beyond expressing obscenity and/or depravities of all possible nature and imagination. Hopefully.
The Hawaian officials, if they did so, or the well meaning O. representative, relative, paid staffer who did so, as in typing up a purely bogus document, having nothing to do with any other documents of that time, and with every other vital statistic department in America, committed a felony of some sort.
Or the equally absurd scenario this consortium of unknowns present on the websites that Hawaian officials paid for such activities actually produced the original document from their deep vaults, walked it to a desk, laid it down, found paper from a later time period, reproduced the information vaguely, using “African” rather than “negro”, and IN ALL CAPS WITH 2 SPACES BETWEEN EACH NAME–boy that is the sure mark of a higher up who is not a 1961 clerk-typist—-and then sent that re-type to Obama– or his people– and then took the original back to the bank vault with U.S. Mint-like security where it now resides. The REAL original, to be kept in perpetuity in seclusion from all prying eyes…
Hawaian officials should be forced to explain such a wasteful and ludicrous manner to provide a copy of an existing real document. I.e., it never happened, I argue, therefore what did happen falls under a variety of felony misdeamors, I believe, if it were done by anyone who is a registered Republican or Libertarian, or whatever.
Democrats do not fall under the same laws of the land, and this could be because they receive special dispensation being highly composed of humans who are labeled as a member of a groups which calls its a “minority”. And the minority members are quickly becoming a majority of all government representatives, now making the poor original western European Americans the actual minority, so they now should begin to received a special dispensation and preferred status as “disenfranchised majority now reduced to minority by burgeoning birth and infiltration of non-Western Eropean immigrants.” But I doubt the new census will reflect this sociological shift; it’s too wordy, and they are moving it to the White House where all manner of curious mixing and arranging of new minority representatives, congresspeople and senators can be created.
O.K. There is a point to my caring about Obama’s bogus document which he had to present because there is no real one anywhere. Ergo, the Supreme Court will simply bury this like other embarrassing history which causes too much trouble for everyone to cope with and clean up–to make it all legal and as it should be.
Two horrible points present themselves to my very simplistic, childlike mind:
1. Many calls to the White House when Bush had every reason on earth to question this mess were made and totally ignored. At that time the Republican Administration commanded all offices involved in assuring that the next American President is in fact and American as laid out in the Constitution and codes and statues of the Immigration Department, and possibly several others.
Even Cheney ignored this issue, ergo, THEY WERE COMPLICITE IN THIS FRAUD BY PROTECTING IT FROM INVESTIGATION, no? So, empirical deduction proclaims the Republican Party was complicite and a party to this fraudulent document which enables a non-citizen to rule this country and thus the world.
My question: what in plu-perfect hell would be their reason? Black helicopter crowd can give a 1000 answers, I’m sure.
2. As a registered Democrat who switched parties to vote for decent change, I now see the precedent set in hardened concrete for a variety of scary persons coming to this county at will, working in minority ghetto settings to get a platform, greasing palms and generating strange alliances and slowly out of the air like magician’s rabbit running for President of the United States of America. And like O., getting a slam dunk from the growing hordes of minority voters who sling people over what used to be a barrier wall.
Said barrier wall Constitutionally built to protect colonists who had lived under the horror of the English government and it’s obscene relationship with the Italian Pope, who ruled all countries from afar–ergo the sensible separation of church from state in the new government of American colonies. Meaning hideous lives spent in horrific dungeons. Like John Bunyan and countless others. But I digress.
On point, Hawaian officials are perhaps guilty of felony misdeamors, and should therefore produced the actual original they proclaim is buried in their private vault, from which they typed the new one on a typewriter which was not available to them in August of 1961. Or probably August of 1965 or later.
Again, what in plu-perfect hell would keep this document as sequested as the original Declaration of Independence? Even Nic Cage should question this at length.
And that, ladies and gentlemen, is the reason this must be resolved, and soon, even if it takes a national referendum through petition.
Is there a petition on this matter on petition.com?
That’s an obvious place for everyone to start with all of their angry and justified unhappinesses at this moment, playing themselves out ad nasium every second of our lives.
Anyone reading this please please pass it on. It is way to tedious to type all of this up yourself, let alone think about it.
I think the change we need is for the government of the United States to protect the United States.
But on the good side, all of the vast hordes from every island and hamlet on the earth all swimming, flying and walking this way will find America is becoming nothing but the same corrupt, inept, socialist dictatorship they are all escaping, and they will all suddenly cease and desist, and millions already here will pack up and go back home to friends and relatives.
I think it is national petition time thought out by people who can get things done for the right reasons.
Will that person please materialize?
Just be sure you don’t owe taxes, have a totally perfect life with no flaws, or you will be crucified and left to rot for months for general public amusement.
Unless you are a minority or a registered Democrat.
2 March, 2009 at 2:53 pm
bulldog, I have now seen your most excellent certificate of live birth. I wish it could be hand delivered to Justice Souter, who will languish in the river in Egypt because he really can’t do anything else, barring angry mobs surrounding his palacial office building. And as we know, persons of european decent simply do not that kind of stuff. Therefore all wheels will go ungreased and we can look forward to a hand picked Iranian jihadist immigrant–legal, illegal, who cares anymore–to run in 2012.
Does anyone read this blog btw?
2 March, 2009 at 3:25 pm
scarlet pimpernel,
Thank you.
Your write-up was excellent. I saved and printed out a copy of it for my files earlier today.
And, yes; many people read this blog. We consistently average about 2,500 readers a day. A quick check of the Stats shows 1,578 readers have already been here so far, today. It may not be as active as a mega-website, but we are a tight-knit little community.
Sad to say, but I think the lack of response to your excellent write-up is because most have taken a defeatist attitude when it comes to the eligibility of Obama.
We fought ever so hard and were let down by Congress and the Supreme Court. So, they’re probably all licking their wounds…
That being said, come join us on the main page:
http://doctorbulldog.wordpress.com
And, look over to the sidebar on the right where you can see the links to the most recent comments from our “Opinionated Infidels” (our readers).
We would very much enjoy your perspective on the news of the day.
Cheers
2 March, 2009 at 7:31 pm
Will be there. And thank you. Also Mrs. Bulldog was on to the IBM type thing way back in July of 2008, so I must say she is one smart lady. What saddens me is that looking all over the websites and UTube to see if anyone had already noted this, I found nothing 3 months ago. That is just not right. It should have been out there all over the place INHO.
One last rant here.
Am unable to comprehend the explanation offered by JMB to explain the modern fonts as a laser printer phenomenon.
Am baffled how a simple duplicating copier machine
can be elaborately programmed to completely change the face, type and wording of original documents.
I.e., putting all names in all caps, adding an extra space between all proper names, and in the case of Obama’s, providing it ever existed, changing the Kenyan to African rather than black, while the mother is white rather than American.
If such elaborate software exists to so change a document from the one laid down on the copying surface to the copied document that emerges in the tray, what is that progam called?
And why doesn’t anyone on the mainland have it? I’ve had to get my own replaced, and my son also replaced his, and they are simply zerox copies of the original. Including the hospital.
So. No fancy elaborate software or magic copiers in either California or Missouri. Just Hawaii. Or have all state Vital Statistics Depts. in the U.S. procured the magic duplicators? I just never seen such a magic duplicator, and must research who sells them and for how much and how Hawaii has them.
Too strange, too perplexing.
But enough ranting here. JMB, if you can help the mentally handicapped with this and have specific explanations I can understand, I would so appreciate being educated.
3 March, 2009 at 12:09 pm
JMB, if you ever read this babble, apparently Puff the Magic Copier’s wizardry is explained somewhere within “LGF reader and Jinxmedic” software. (?)
So, forgive me. I will research this whole mess.
Just heard about it 3 months ago.
But. On the good side, rather than being totally burnt to a crisp on this, I am just getting started.
