Best Answer

The US Constitution requires that the president is a natural born US citizen, some people implied that he was an immigrant, his birth certificate however proves he is eligible to hold the office of President as specified by the constitution. There was and is no issue, it was used in attempts to discredit Barack Obama.

What states issue a certificate of live birth as opposed to a birth certificate?

All states issue birth certificates. Usually it is the medical facilities where the child is actually born that issue the 'certificates of live birth.' The parent(s) must then take this 'certificate of live birth' to the city or county office which issues the official birth certificates. Present the certificate of live birth, and the government office will issue a birth certificate based on the hospital's certification. (confused enough?) ------------------ With all due respect, medical facilities almost invariably issue birth certificates and it is they, not the parents, who interface with the agency that officially records births, deaths, marriages, etc. and it is the State that issues certified documents to parents, schools, etc. including Certificates of Live Birth (COLB). A COLB can not be generated until the data from the original Birth Certificate is transcribed into a database in a computer and it is from that information that the COLB is generated, printed and certified. It is my understanding that virtually all states will provide certified photocopies of the original birth certificate upon request and the payment of a fee. I know of none that will not.

Is a child considered a legal descendant of the step-father if the step-father was listed on the birth certificate as the father?

You are considered the legal descendant, for purposes of inheritance, of the parent who is listed on your birth certificate. However, someone supplied false information at the time of the recording of the birth and that issue may come up in the future. A court order could change the situation but until that time the birth certificate would control.

Every state is different in handling this kind of situation. Some states will not do it at all, others will amend or issue a secondary birth certificate. You can find details for the state where you were born at this website: http://www.drbecky.com/birthcert.html

To write a request letter for obtaining a birth certificate from a school, address it to the school's principal or administration office. Clearly state the purpose of the letter and provide details such as the student's name, date of birth, and any identification number. Request that the school issue a certified copy of the birth certificate and include contact information for where it should be sent. Close the letter politely and include your signature.


Should Obama still be president since he can not show a birth certificate?

Yes. Courts have ruled that Mr. Obama is an American citizen by birth and is therefore eligible to be President. Many Americans do not have birth certificates, having instead substitute certificates. This occurs for many reasons. This writer's father was born in rural Idaho and had no birth certificate because he was born at home with no doctor present. Most home births today have a similar issue. Mr. Obama's certificate of live birth is as valid as any birth certificate. Also, his birth announcement appeared in the local newspapers in Hawaii a few days after he was born.
