I recently took the liberty of reading more on the "birther" movement.  I will start by saying that the President of the United States must be 35 years old and a natural born citizen.  The "elites" in D.C. would have you believe that an Ivy League education is part of that, but it is not.  I agree that the complete lack of any documentation on President Obama's education/work/health history is very strange.  The Presidency is a public office and requires public disclosure.  Don't want your records made public?  Don't run on your RECORDS.  The article though does an AMAZING job of documentation the "cover up" of Obama.  When Gov Sarah Palin was announced, dozens of lawyers, reporters, et al, were dropped into Alaska to dig up dirt.  Did any dig up dirt on Obama?  Nope!  That is one of the scandals here.  Now back to the point...  We must look at the main requirement for the Presidency more closely.  Must be 35 years old and a natural born citizen.  There is only one way to verify this.  A birth certificate.  Nothing else.  A certificate of live birth is just that.  A kid was born.  The article states that Hawaii will issue such certificates to non-citizens.  Obama's birth records overseas have been "locked up" as well.  We will likely never know the truth unless Congress gets involved.  Hmmm, won't THAT make an interesting GOP controlled House bill?  Personally, Obama looks very guilty when he refuses to release his birth certificate.  The whole Birther movement would be satisfied then.  However, Obama can paint Birthers as "kooks" by keeping the birth certificate to himself.  If he even has it...
