In reply to last week's letter from Kenneth Judkins about whether President Obama actually was born in the United States:

Mr. Judkins is placing too much meaning on specific wording in stating "certificate of live birth" is suspicious. My Oregon birth certificate from 1956 specifically states "Standard Certificate of Live Birth."

Each of us may or not may agree with the actions of Obama (I don't agree with everything and I'm a lifelong Democrat), but please, let's end these conspiracy theories about his U.S. citizenship. If he wasn't born in the U.S., don't you think that would have come out before the election?
