Durbin: Obama’s birth certificate settles issue for ‘any reasonable person’

President Obama on Wednesday released copies of his two-page,
long-form birth certificate showing he was born on Aug. 4, 1961, at
Kapiolani Hospital in Honolulu.

As Durbin suggested, some are not convinced.

“[We’re] going to look at it,” billionaire media mogul and possible
GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump said of the birth certificate.
“We have to see if it’s real, if it’s proper.”

Joseph Farrah, editor in chief of the conserative website World Net
Daily, also said on MSNBC on Wednesday he remained unconvinced that
President Obama was born in the U.S. and therefore eligible to serve
in the White House.
