I do not have an "original" birth certificate. My mother conveniently misplaced it when I was a kid--because she didn't want my father to know she actually was 5 years older than he was and not just 2 years as she had previously led him to believe. To get a passport years ago I had to write to the Commonwealth of Virginia Bureau of Vital Statistics for a certified copy. Pay your money and they send it to you. Looks plenty official even though it is not an "original". BTW, none of us knew my mother's real age until she died from breast cancer in 1992 at the age of 70 --we all thought she was 67. When my father found out her real date of birth, he laughed.
I rarely check this thread anymore because of tangents like this. People love to believe in conspiracy theories. Aren't there more important things to focus on? Hell, McCain was born in Panama for Pete's sake
