As I'm in Honolulu and can easily go to the newspaper library, I can print a microfilm clipping of the Vital Statistics list.<br> <br> Once upon a time, I had a job requiring work with these lists. They are compiled from hospital reports. There's no way a parent can come to the Department of Health, or to the newspaper, and get a birth announcement inserted.<br> <br> Finally, for those who maintain the state law enables foreign-born babies to get a Hawaii birth certificate: That's true, but the certificate would reflect the foreign birth, not state that the baby was born in Honolulu. That's from the staff at the DOH. <br> <br> However, don't everybody call them up. They are TRULY sick of this whole issue. Folks have been rude enough to ignore the time difference and have awakened staff at home in the middle of the night.<br> <br> It's all such rubbish. The Constitution doesn't require a long-form birth certificate. It just requires you prove your citizenship status. The short-form document Obama provided took care of that.
