Did you happen to see he CNN investigative report on their findings relative to "the birth certificate"?
They interviewed a number of people, including the head of the Hawaii Dept. of Health, who issues birth certificates, and the editor of the newspaper who published the birth announcement. They also interviewed a doctor, a family friend, who was with Obama's mother throughout her pregnancy and personally held Baby Barack only days after he was born. The health department head said she personally had investigated Obama's birth certificate--after all it was her department which was being criticized--and stated emphatically that there was no chance that the birth certificate was invalid or inaccurate and that without question, Obama was born in Hawaii.
The newspaper guy de-bunked allegations that "someone" placed the birth announcement in the newspaper. He explained that the only source of the birth announcements published in the paper is the health department, and is based on the issuance of a birth certificate.
So, those folks who were directly involved say the controversy is baseless and politically-motivated. Donald Trump on the other hand maintains that "his people" have uncovered evidence to the contrary. But in response to Wolf Blitzer's intense questioning, he would not reveal what evidence he had uncovered or the names of his investigators. "I don't give names." said Trump.
Hey, it could be worse. Trump could still be running for POTUS! Turns out he's just as "humorous" as Rick Perry and Herman Cain before him.
