Hawaii Gov. Neil Abercrombie suggested in an interview published today
that a long-form, hospital-generated birth certificate for Barack Obama
may not exist within the vital records maintained by the Hawaii
Department of Health.

Abercrombie told the Honolulu Star Advertiser he was searching within
the Hawaii Department of Health to find definitive vital records that
would prove Obama was born in Hawaii, because the continuing eligibility
controversy could hurt the president's chances of re-election in 2012.

Donalyn Dela Cruz, Abercrombie's spokeswoman in Honolulu, ignored again
today another in a series of repeated requests made by WND for an
interview with the governor.

Toward the end of the interview, the newspaper asked Abercrombie: "You
stirred up quite a controversy with your comments regarding birthers and
your plan to release more information regarding President Barack Obama's
birth certificate. How is that coming?"

In his response, Abercrombie acknowledged the birth certificate issue
will have "political implications" for the next presidential election
"that we simply cannot have."


Suggesting he was still intent on producing more birth records on Obama
from the Hawaii Department of Health vital records vault, Abercrombie
told the newspaper there was a recording of the Obama birth in the state
archives that he wants to make public.


Abercrombie did not report to the newspaper that he or the Hawaii
Department of Health had found Obama's long-form, hospital-generated
birth certificate. The governor only suggested his investigations to
date had identified an unspecified listing or notation of Obama's birth
that someone had made in the state archives.

"It was actually written, I am told, this is what our investigation is
showing, it actually exists in the archives, written down," Abercrombie
said.

For seemingly the first time, Abercrombie frankly acknowledged that
presidential politics motivated his search for Obama birth records,
implying that failure to resolve the questions that remain unanswered
about the president's birth and early life may damage his chance for
re-election.

"If there is a political agenda (regarding Obama's birth certificate),
then there is nothing I can do about that, nor can the president," he
said.

So far, the only birth document available on Obama is a Hawaii
Certification of Live Birth that first appeared on the Internet during
the 2008 presidential campaign. It was posted by two purportedly
independent websites that have displayed a strong partisan bias for
Obama - Snopes.com released the COLB in June 2008, and FactCheck.org
published photographs of the document in August 2008.

WND previously reported the Hawaii Department of Health has refused to
authenticate the COLB posted on the Internet by Snopes.com and
FactCheck.org.

WND has reported that in 1961, Obama's grandparents, Stanley and Madelyn
Dunham, could have made an in-person report of a Hawaii birth even if
the infant Barack Obama Jr. had been foreign-born.

Similarly, the newspaper announcements of Obama's birth do not prove he
was born in Hawaii, since they could have been triggered by the
grandparents registering the birth as Hawaiian, even if the baby was
born elsewhere.

Moreover, WND has documented that the address reported in the newspaper
birth announcements was the home of the grandparents.

WND also has reported that Barack Obama Sr. maintained his own separate
apartment in Honolulu, even after he was supposedly married to Ann
Dunham, Barack Obama's mother, and that Dunham left Hawaii within three
weeks of the baby's birth to attend the University of Washington in
Seattle.

Dunham did not return to Hawaii until after Barack Obama Sr. left Hawaii
in June 1962 to attend graduate school at Harvard University in
Cambridge, Mass.

Conceivably, the yet undisclosed birth record in the state archives that
Abercrombie has discovered may have come from the grandparents
registering Obama's birth, an event that would have triggered both the
newspaper birth announcements and availability of a Certification of
Live Birth, even if no long-form birth certificate existed.

WND has also reported that Tim Adams, a former senior elections clerk
for the city and county of Honolulu in 2008, has maintained that there
is no long-form, hospital-generated birth certificate on file with the
Hawaii Department of Health and that neither Honolulu hospital - Queens
Medical Center or Kapiolani Medical Center - has any record that Obama
was born there.
