Abercrombie told theHonolulu Star Advertiserhe was searching within theHawaiiDepartment of Health to find definitive vital records that would prove Obamawas borninHawaii, because the continuing eligibility controversy could hurt the president's chances of re-election in 2012.
Donalyn Dela Cruz, Abercrombie's spokeswoman in Honolulu, ignored again today another in a series of repeated requests made by WND for an interview with the governor.
Toward the end of the interview, the newspaper asked Abercrombie: "You stirred up quite a controversy with your comments regarding birthers and your plan to releasemore informationregarding President Barack Obama's birthcertificate. How is that coming?"
In hisresponse, Abercrombie acknowledged the birthcertificateissue will have "political implications" for the next presidential election "that we simply cannot have."

Suggesting he was still intent on producing more birth records on Obama from theHawaiiDepartment of Health vital records vault, Abercrombie told the newspaper there was a recording of the Obama birth in the state archives that he wants to make public.

Abercrombie did not report to the newspaper that he or theHawaiiDepartment of Health had found Obama's long-form, hospital-generated birthcertificate. The governor only suggested his investigations to date had identified an unspecified listing or notation of Obama's birth that someone had made in the state archives.
"It was actually written, I am told, this is what our investigation is showing, it actually exists in the archives, written down," Abercrombie said.
For seemingly the first time, Abercrombie frankly acknowledged that presidential politics motivated his search for Obama birth records, implying that failure to resolve the questions that remain unanswered about the president's birth and early life may damage his chance for re-election.
"If there is a political agenda (regarding Obama's birthcertificate), then there is nothing I can do about that, nor can the president," he said.
So far, the only birth document available on Obama is aHawaiiCertification of Live Birth that first appeared on the Internet during the 2008 presidential campaign. It was posted by two purportedly independent websites that have displayed a strong partisan bias for Obama –Snopes.com released the COLB in June 2008, andFactCheck.org published photographs of the document in August 2008.
WND previously reportedtheHawaiiDepartment of Health has refused to authenticate the COLB posted on the Internet by Snopes.com and FactCheck.org.
WND has reportedthat in 1961, Obama's grandparents, Stanley and Madelyn Dunham, could have made an in-person report of aHawaiibirth even if the infant Barack Obama Jr. had been foreign-born.
Similarly, the newspaper announcements of Obama's birth do not prove hewas borninHawaii, since they could have been triggered by the grandparents registering the birth as Hawaiian, even if the babywas bornelsewhere.
Moreover,WND has documentedthat the address reported in the newspaper birth announcements was the home of the grandparents.
WND also has reportedthat Barack Obama Sr. maintained his own separate apartment in Honolulu, even after he was supposedly married to Ann Dunham, Barack Obama's mother, and thatDunham left Hawaii within three weeks of the baby's birthto attend the University of Washington in Seattle.
Dunham did not return toHawaiiuntil after Barack Obama Sr. leftHawaiiin June 1962 to attend graduate school at Harvard University in Cambridge, Mass.
Conceivably, the yet undisclosed birth record in the state archives that Abercrombie has discovered may have come from the grandparents registering Obama's birth, an event that would have triggered both the newspaper birth announcements and availability of a Certification of Live Birth, even if no long-form birthcertificateexisted.
WND has also reportedthat Tim Adams, a former senior elections clerk for the city and county of Honolulu in 2008, has maintained that there is no long-form, hospital-generated birthcertificateon file with theHawaiiDepartment of Health and that neither Honolulu hospital – Queens Medical Center or Kapiolani Medical Center – has any record that Obamawas bornthere.
