He has released a Certificate of Live Birth, There are also Birth
Certificates which contain more information than the document that he
released. I have no doubt that he was born in the US. I don't care
if he wants to release the more inclusive birth certificate or not.
What he did release and the microfilm copies of the two newspapers
announcing his birth back in 1961 is good enough for me.

Jack...

Don't be pig-headed about this.

He released the only birth certificate the State of Hawaii issues.

A US Senator (of asian heritage) from Hawaii is likely to be involved
with the KKK? You are flat out nuts. Secondly, I rejected your claim to
have seen KKK activists in Columbus - not that they were never there (as
they were at some time in practically every major city). You chose to
miss the difference. Lynchings here, though, not so common. You have the
clear advantage on that score.

That's correct.

Being misdiagnosed was only one minor
problem. She was re-diagnosed correctly,
according to the experts. All of the problems
came after being supposedly diagnosed
correctly. She fell and hit her head on a
sidewalk during one of her drug induced
psychotic episodes. Until I inquired she was
had not had an MRI or Cat Scan to see if
she had brain damage. One was done almost
immediately and that doesn't speak ill of the
payment for health services but I'm talking
about the overall care that less poor receive.

It's worse in Child Protective Services. There
are so many children who should be removed
from homes who aren't ... and the state tries to
save money by accepting crappy foster care
parents, in many cases. A child named China
Marie Davis, was killed by her foster mother
in Arizona ... two kids within a week by foster
parents killed. China had dozens of broken bones
other than the ones she received from being
pushed down stairs for not clapping at a birth-
day party. The other bones had healed ... they
were never reported. China was either 6 or 8
when she died.

That was not nearly the worst thing that happened.
The stories are too sick to burden people with
but somehow you have to make people aware of
what is happening without making them sick to
their stomachs and depressed. Hence my skepticism
of services for poor people. Is there really health
care for poor people now? Hell no.
