A letter received by the Citizens Wells blog that was posted
in the US Constitution Hall of Shame on on January 6, 2009:
“I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the
Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and
domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same;
that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation
or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge
the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God.”

A letter received from Representative John Mica of
Florida regarding Barack Obama’s eligibility issues:
“August 18, 2008
Thank you for your fax message regarding Barack Obama’s eligibility
to run for president. I appreciated hearing from you.
As you know, emails questioning Senator Obama’s eligibility to serve as
President have been circulating in the internet for number of months.
Generally they are considered to be hoaxes and without merit. As you may
know, Senator Obama was born in Hawaii two years after Hawaii became a
state. While I do not support his candidacy for President, I have not
seen evidence that cause me to question his eligibility to run. If valid,
I am confidant these questions would have been raised by Senator Clinton’s
campaign, or one of the several other candidates during the Democratic
primary.
Thank you again for writing.
With my regards and best wishes, I remain
Sincerely,
John L. Mica
Member of Congress”
First of all, in fairness to Representative Mica, his letter was written
August 18, 2008 and he does not provide a litany of falsehoods. If he cares
to respond and look at the evidence, his errors can be forgiven.
Representative John Mica stated:
“Generally they are considered to be hoaxes and without merit.”
Mr. Mica, did you do any research on the eligibility issues surrounding
Obama?
Representative Mica then stated:
“As you may know, Senator Obama was born in Hawaii two years after Hawaii
became a state.”
Mr. Mica, how would you or anyone else know for a fact that Obama was born
in Hawaii? Obama has never produced a birth certificate despite many
attempts in court to force him to. Obama, instead has spent hundreds of
thousands of dollars and employed numerous attorneys to avoid proving
eligibility. Furthermore, being born in Hawaii is not sufficient to make
Obama a natural born citizen. If it did, then British citizens vacationing
in Hawaii and delivering a child would enable that British child to be
president.
What Hawaii Health Official really said
Latest information on court cases
From the Alan Keyes lawsuit
“A press release was issued on October 31, 2008, by the Hawaii Department
of Health by its Director, Dr. Chiyome Fukino. Dr. Fukino said that she
had “personally seen and verified that the Hawaii State Department of
Health has Senator Obama’s original birth certificate on record in
accordance with state policies and procedures.” That statement failed to
resolve any of the questions being raised by litigation and press accounts.
Being “on record” could mean either that its contents are in the computer
database of the department or there is an actual “vault” original.”
“Further, the report does not say whether the birth certificate in the
“record” is a Certificate of Live Birth or a Certificate of Hawaiian Birth.
In Hawaii, a Certificate of Live Birth resulting from hospital documentation,
including a signature of an attending physician, is different from a
Certificate of Hawaiian Birth. For births prior to 1972, a Certificate of
Hawaiian Birth was the result of the uncorroborated testimony of one witness
and was not generated by a hospital. Such a Certificate could be obtained up
to one year from the date of the child’s birth. For that reason, its value
as prima facie evidence is limited and could be overcome if any of the
allegations of substantial evidence of birth outside Hawaii can be obtained.
The vault (long Version) birth certificate, per Hawaiian Statute 883.176
allows the birth in another State or another country to be registered in
Hawaii. Box 7C of the vault Certificate of Live Birth contains a question,
whether the birth was in Hawaii or another State or Country. Therefore,
the only way to verify the exact location of birth is to review a certified
copy or the original vault Certificate of Live Birth and compare the name of
the hospital and the name and the signature of the doctor against the
birthing records on file at the hospital noted on the Certificate of the
Live Birth.”
