Yes I have read the statement
"I, Dr. Chiyome Fukino, director of the Hawai'i State Department of Health, have seen the original vital records maintained on file by the Hawai'i State Department of Health verifying Barrack Hussein Obama was born in Hawai'i and is a natural-born American citizen. I have nothing further to add to this statement or my original statement issued in October 2008 over eight months ago ... "
There are two points
(And I know all the Obama supporters are going to call me crazy - go ahead)
1.) The statement was very carefully worded. It did not mention Birth Certificate or any details - original vital records. That will be taken by the doubters to mean she may be referring to information in the Certificate of Live Birth. And Dr. Fukino will not clarify this issue even though she is aware that her statement leaves doubt.
2.) If there is an original long form birth certificate - I go back to my original question - why spend $1 million dollars no to show it.
There is the Obama Certificate of Live Birth on the internet.
Someone has posted a 1963 long form certificate.
Difference is the Long form is doctor and hospital certified
not parent certified.
This still seems so very odd to me.
Guess because I can think of so many better things to do with $1 million dollars than pay lawyers to keep from showing my birth certificate.
Several things are very odd:
Why is the Hawaii Director of Health making that statement now? Before she was talking in cryptic sentences, unwilling to outright verify anything but he held a Hawaii birth certificate but now she can say it says he was born in Hawaii.
Yes, it is odd if it's 100% certain Obama was born in Hawaii that Mr. Obama would spend over a million dollars to avoid proving that in a court of law. People are asking for proof that he was born in Hawaii and asking for proof of his Natural Born Citizenship.
The Supreme Court should now verify the hospital, doctor and information on both of Mr. Obama's parents for that vital record Dr. Fukino speaks of because that is why the State of Hawaii is maintaining the information in electronic format - for reporting.
There has been confusion as to where Mr. Obama was born:
Excerpt from
White House Briefing 7/13/09 -
Lester Kingsolving, reporter from WND:
KINGSOLVING: I appreciate it. While you and the President were overseas on July the 7th, there was on the Internet a copy of a letter on White House letterhead dated January the 24th, 2009, with the signature “Barack Obama,” which stated “The place of my birth was Honolulu’s Kapi’olani Medical Center.” And my question is, can you verify this letter? Or if not, would you tell us which Hawaiian hospital he was born in, since Kapi’olani, which used to publicize this, now refuses to confirm?
MR. GIBBS: Goodness gracious. I’m going to be, like, in year four describing where it is the President was born. I don’t have the letter at my fingertips, obviously, and
I don’t know the name of the exact hospital.
KINGSOLVING: Can you check on this?
MR. GIBBS: I will seek to interview whoever brought the President into this world. But can we just — I want to do this once and for all, Lester. Let’s just do this once and for all. You can go on this — I hope you’ll take the time not just to Google “President, January 24, Hawaii hospital, birth” and come up with this letter, but
go on the Internet and get the birth certificate, Lester, and put –
KINGSOLVING: It’s not a birth certificate.
GIBBS: I know.
[Laughter]
GIBBS: Just a document from the state of Hawaii denoting the fact that the President was indeed born in the state of Hawaii.
KINGSOLVING: But it doesn’t say where he was born or who the doctor was.
This is where Gibbs avoids answering the actual questions posed to him by droning on and on in a lecture:
MR. GIBBS: You know, Lester, I — I want to stay on this for a second, Lester, I want to stay on this for a second, because you’re a smart man, right?
PRESS CORPS: Hypothetical.
MR. GIBBS: All right, all right, settle down in here. Only I get to make jokes like that. No, Lester, let’s finish this one. Do all of your listeners and the listeners throughout this country the service to which any journalist owes those listeners, and that is
the pursuit of the noble truth. And the noble truth is that the President was born in Hawaii, a state of the United States of America. And all of this incredible back-and-forth — I get e-mails today from people who inexplicably can figure out very easily the White House e-mail address, and want proof of where the President was born.
MR. GIBBS: Lester, the next time you ask me a question I’m going to ask you what reporting you’ve done to demonstrate to your listeners the truth, the certificate, the state, so that they can
look to you for that momentous search for the truth, and you can wipe away all the dark clouds and provide them with the
knowing clarity that comes with that certainty.
Whatever all that meant...
He didn't clear anything up with any certainty.
And it definitely requires some clearing up:

Barack Obama was born on August 4, 1961 at the Queen’s Medical Center in Honolulu, Hawaii. Obama lived here with his parents Barack Obama, Sr. and Ann Dunham until they divorced when he was two. Obama moved back to Hawaii when he was ten and lived with his grandmother Madelyn Dunham and half-sister of our very own, Maya Soetoro. They both attended Punahou School together when they both lived here.

Obama’s backers stress the importance of caucuses
Laurie Au
Obama’s half sister, Maya Soetoro-Ng, who has been campaigning aggressively in Hawaii and on the mainland, shared stories of her older brother’s childhood as a way to connect to local voters.
“This is a place that’s been relatively unchanged for him, and so much of who he is was born here,” Soetoro-Ng told a crowd of about 200 people eating “OBAMAsadas.”
