This is in response to Kenneth Judkins letter in the Aug 20th issue. Kenneth, you question the citizenship of President Obama and cite the fact that his birth certificate says "certificate of live birth" instead of "birth certificate" as proof. You challenged us readers to look at our own birth certificates to clearly see that it would say "birth certificate" not "certificate of live birth". So I did just that. I gave birth to a little girl this January at St. Charles Medical Center, or so I thought. It turns out that my daughter also has a birth certificate that doesn't say "birth certificate" it says "CERTIFICATE OF LIVE BIRTH!" Just like Mr. Obama's birth certificate. Should I also question the citizenship of my daughter or should I take my head out of my ass and do some intelligent research and thinking before making serious accusations against another?
