Arpaio insisted that Obama's birth certificate was a forgery. Sheriff Arpaio exposed the results of the second investigation of President Obama's birth certificate by the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office at a press conference on Tuesday afternoon. Apao insists that the birth certificate now with the Hawaii Department of Health is a forgery. "Given how lax Hawaii appears to be in regulating the birth certificates of its residents, it is possible, but not proven, that President Obama, through his own actions, obtained this birth certificate to prove his U.S. citizenship," said Arpaio investigator Mike Zorro. According to Zorro's report, the Hawaii Department of Health uses a coding system established by the federal government to classify and code birth certificates. The process involves specific numeric codes, pertinent information handwritten in pencil on the birth certificate. "The numeric format seen on the Presidential Birth Certificate is not consistent with the encoding of information required by the federal government to match." MCSO reports that there is a possibility that the Presidential Birth Certificate may have been altered or revised. Investigators found the person who entered Obama's birth certificate, 95-year-old Bernard Guangli, who allegedly signed the document on August 8, 1961. The information provided by Na Guangli is that on that day in 1961, Obama was born at Kapiolani Maternity Hospital. The investigators also visited the Hawaii Department of Health, the Attorney General's Office and other places. When they requested to meet with Hawaii Assistant Attorney General Gil Changfeng, they were refused. Changfeng also refused to produce the original birth certificate. Joshua Veitch, special assistant to the Hawaii Attorney General, said in a statement to the state on Tuesday that MSCO's accusations are "untrue, misleading and misunderstand Hawaii's laws." Arpaio again called on Obama to come forward to clarify, but the White House has not commented on the matter.
