What Is Donald Trump, Newborn Birther, Trying To Hide From Us?

3/29 UPDATE: Possible proof of Trump U.S. birth uncovered

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?

On a possibly related note, Jamaica Hospital has been the recipient of significant financial largesse from the Trump family. In fact, the Queens institution includes the Trump Pavilion, a nursing and rehabilitation facility that was named for Mary Trump.

[If The Donald wants to hunt in his sock drawer for the official birth certificate, he should look for a document that includes an official Department of Health stamp and resembles city forms like ones used decades ago, like this or this.]

The Clinton's were the ones who initially brought this subject to light regarding Obama's citizenship during that heated primary....Then it all went away very quietly so Hillary and Bill were the first to say "eh, that's enough for us" - or did they? I hope to live long enough to read factual history on this 30-40 yrs from now. The fact is that very few really know All of the details and as I've said elsewhere I doesn't much matter about the Birth Certificate any longer - But, if many of Obama's school records were to be leaked prior to the 2012 election he might have an even tougher fight to get a 2nd term. That is more than likely where the real story about Obama's questionable history could begin to come to light and become a problem for the WH.
Mr Trump wants to be king of America. Watch how many people follow this crazy crazy man.. (that's my opinion) Birther is another word for racist...Don't be afraid..admit it..own it....
If the hospital birth certificate is the official one that the government needs for proof, then what happens if you lose it, such as in a fire? Do you cease to exist? Isn't that why there are Vital Statistic places in every state? Edit correction: Excuse me, but my above comment has more or less already been discussed by a couple of other commenters on a previous page.
While all these Vital Statistics places you tell of may be useful for potential backers of beauty queens and perhaps some perverts, I think that the state Vital "Records" offices are probably more likely to be of use to citizens applying for copy birth certificates lol.
I'm loving the drama.....Keep it up Donald! LOL
Trump's birth certificate is, at least, a valid birth certificate unlike the Certificate of Live Birth which Obama produced. It does give his parents names, the date and time of birth and, quite obviously, the hospital where he was born. It is signed by a designated person from the hospital and bears the hospital seal. Where do you suppose New York City of the State of New York gets its information if not from the hospital itself? If B.O. (Plenty) had produced such a certificate, I doubt that there would have been any question. Instead, he chooses to impune those who question the Certificate of Live Birth which he did produce. This is an ongoing practice of B.O. He has never produced his school records, and his dissertation has gone missing. It would appear that he is intent on seeing that there is no paper trail regarding him. Trump had a point when he called attention to the fact that no one remembers him (other than some in Indonesia). I find this rather interesting. Was he born in Hawaii? Probably, but we will never be sure until he produces the goods.
Ah, you Americans. This kind of nonsense is the reason the rest of the world is constantly laughing at you.
Ah, you foreigners! This is the reason we have to come and save you from each other every now and then. Or, if you are French, we just come in and set you free.
As several comments have already noted, Trump has played TSG for fools. Now all he has to do is release his "official" birth certificate, ask the president to do the same, and stand back and ask why Obama doesn't do the same. I am not a "birther" (I suspect that Obama really does have a genuine US birth certificate) but I cannot for the life of me understand why Obama doesn't just produce it and put this whole controversy to a very easy end. His behavior makes absolutely no sense unless there is something to hide. He has raised questions about his honesty that never need to have been raised if he had acted quickly to put the matter to rest.
Perhaps he's hiding the fact that his mother gave up her citizenship, thus negating his own citizenship that wasn't totally legitimate if he was born in Guam.
