Trump releases unofficial birth certificate! What's he hiding?!
What Is Donald Trump, Newborn Birther, Trying To Hide From Us?



What is Donald Trump hiding?

The multimillionaire developer has, overnight, become a leading voice of the “birther” movement, members of which doubt that President Barack Obama was born in the United States (and, thus, is unable to produce an authentic U.S. birth certificate).

“It’s inconceivable that, after four years of questioning, the president still hasn’t produced his birth certificate,” Trump told Newsmax. “I’m just asking President Obama to show the public his birth certificate. Why’s he making an issue out of this?" To prove how easy it was for a household employee to find his birth certificate, Trump, 64, crowed, “It took me one hour to get my birth certificate.”

As seen above, he provided the conservative web site with what he purports to be his birth certificate.

Except the document is not an official New York City birth certificate, but rather a document generated by Jamaica Hospital, where Trump’s mother Mary reportedly gave birth in June 1946. Official birth certificates are issued (and maintained) by the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene’s Office of Vital Records.

So, what is Trump trying to conceal?

11. Jamaica in the borough of QUEENS, NYC
An official NYC BC would say that.

17. Yes, Jamaica was still British at the time, and ruled by the Queen!

Donald Trump is a British citizen descended from rebellious slaves!

12. I used a birth certificate with footprints for 50 years
When I applied for a passport, I learned it was an unofficial birth certificate issued by the hospital. Common in WW@ era. I had to get a state certificate - pretty plain jane in comparison. Let see what passport the Donald carries.

10. Very true
because I met him back when the Trump Towers were being built in Manhattan. He would have been in diapers if he was born in 1966! That is in error. It must be 1946.

7. At least mine says born in the borough of Manhattan, the City of New York
and has a NYC seal on it, although it doesn't list the names of my parents or anything about them because the original long form was lost decades ago. As a genealogist, I know all about NYC Birth Indexes. If originals are not available, they take the info from these records, which only list the minimum facts about a person. If Trump have requested a short form from the City, this is what he would get.

He didn't write to the Bureau of Vital Statistics. If he did it would have cost more MONEY and taken WEEKS. As another said, JAMAICA? Jamaica, QUEENS, the City of New York. An official BC would say that.

I am 2 years younger than Trump and was born in St. Vincent's Hospital in Manhattan.

14. His mother was born in Scotland. Based on the birther movement he is an anchor baby and
is not qualified to be called a US citizen, much less run for President.

21. Right---per the extensive legal analysis of the birfer movement, based
on the "Law of Nations" by some dude named Vattel from 200 years ago, you must have two parents born in America to make you a natural-born citizen.

That this legal theory is completely unsupported by any judicial precedent is not deemed relevant by the birfers. It does make for interesting, fact-free briefs, however...

18. He's also purportedly a germaphobe
That will likely produce a lot of entertainment during GOP Presidential debates.

20. Social Security Admin does not accept hospital BC's as legitimate proof
If the Donald ever applies for Social Security/Medicare (requiring proof of age) I can guarantee his claim will be held up until he provides an official NY state birth record like Obama's from Hawaii that is on the internet.

24. The Freepers think this was a genius move, causing people to say if TRUMP'S COLB isn't legit,
neither is OBAMA'S COLB, and they swear it's a grand plot not only to point that out, but soon Trump will provide his "long form" BC and THEN he'll demand that Obama show HIS. :rofl:

25. This would not get you a SS # or a U.S. Passport. It is not issued by the State of New York.
Hospital birth certificates are not legal documents.
