Politicians must disclose how much funding is received from special interest groups such as insurance or pharmaceutical lobbyists or representatives. A limit should be mandated.

He already has.See http://www.snopes.com/politics/obama/birthcertificate.asp for an on-line version. Also Hawaii has two major newspapers, the Honolulu Advertiser and the Star Bulletin.BOTH newspapers include birth announcements, and BOTH newspapers record the August 4th, 1961 birth of Barack Obama.

See http://msgboard.snopes.com/politics/graphics/birth.jpg where the certificate is posted

So the birth announcements in the local paper were forged at his birth? Not likely. Take the time to check out http://msgboard.snopes.com/politics/graphics/birth.jpg
Where the certificate is posted. Remember to check facts before you slander.

He did show his birth certificate and it was discussed on a radio show long ago. It is a hoax that he did not. Check out snopes.com under false rumors. Officials in Hawaii verified his birth in Honolulu in August of 1961 (back in December of 2008). Birth certificates and social security numbers you can not leave available to the general public or accounts will be started using that information. If you do not believe me, ask around.

Many months ago he did, as well as it being verified by hospital officials in Honolulu where he was born Aug 1 of 61. Check snopes.com under false rumors

If you check on www.snopes.com/politics/obama/birthcertificate.asp
It states that in October 2008 Hawaiian officials verified Obama's original birth certificate. Also, the Honolulu Advertiser and Star-Bulletin announced his birth on August 4 1961.

Has anyone considered that the information on his certificate could be used for identity theft, or to harrass family etc. Wouldn't you be concerned if your birth certificate was public information? Clearly he has a passport, and adequate proof of identity. Do we also want his immunization record?!

He must be a citizen definitively to run for president. Quit wasting time questioning his certificate when the American people finally have again someone who we can be proud of to speak to our interests, and that actually attempts to hear us. The last 8 years were a nightmare, but I am so pleased that this intelligent, thoughtful person, whose behavior I applaud so far, is now in office. I have hope that he will assist in restoring the "face" of America

The idea is great but a very broad topic; for example solving global warming ideas,or health care solutions would need special designated areas
