    At the conclusion of a press conference led by Cold Case Posse chief investigator Michael Zullo that detailed the reasons the long-form birth certificate of President Barack Obama is a forgery, Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio said it's time for a higher authority to investigate the issue.

    Mr. Arpaio said he would like Congress ... "someone" ... to look at the material his investigative team had gathered. As he had told WND earlier: “Although I am having a difficult time deciding who to forward this information to given the fact that the obvious choices report directly to the president, I cannot stand by and hold on to information that threatens to weaken national security.”

    The press conference held Tuesday clarified some of the issues discussed in an earlier press conference held in Phoenix on March 1, at which the Cold Case Posse presented its initial findings of a six-month-long investigation into the authenticity of President Barack Obama's birth certificate. "I cannot in good faith report to you that these documents are authentic," Mr. Arpaio said at the time.

    Tuesday's press conference added weight to the Cold Case Posse's earlier findings. In addition to the electronic evidence that the president's long-form birth certificate had been altered, the investigators introduced supporting evidence related to a box titled "Race of Father." In it was written the word "African." Not only was "African" not used as a race identifier until 1989, 28 years after Obama's birth, but the box is also coded with a number nine. Nine signifies that no information was provided, meaning the box should have been empty. The fact that there is information in the box suggests someone had tampered with the birth certificate, investigators say.

    The press conference also discussed the recent trip to Hawaii by lead investigator Michael Zullo and others to further investigate the anomalies associated with the president's birth certificate. Mr. Zullo and his team received a cold reception and most doors were closed to them. Hawaiian officials also tended to over-react to their presence. In at least one case, local police were called."

    Obama's birth certificate is 'definitely fraudulent', claims Sheriff Joe Arpaio

    Barack Obama's birth certificate is 'definitely fraudulent', claims Sheriff Joe Arpaio after fresh investigation into disputed document

    By Associated Press

    "Investigators for an Arizona sheriff's volunteer posse have declared that President Barack Obama's birth certificate is 'definitely fraudulent.'

    The team formed by Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio said in March that there was probable cause that Obama's long-form birth certificate released by the White House in April 2011 was a computer-generated forgery.

    Now, Arpaio says investigators are positive it is fraudulent.

    This is the latest salvo in an ongoing political war between the Obama administration and the man dubbed 'America's toughest sheriff.' The Republican has been under pressure from the Justice Department over allegations his office racially profiled Latinos and failed to fully investigate numerous sex crimes cases.

    A civil rights lawsuit brought by federal authorities goes to trial on Thursday and critics say Arpaio's press conference was nothing more than a diversionary tactic to distract from the legal case. Supporters say the timing is coincidental.

    Mike Zullo, the posse's chief investigator, said numeric codes on certain parts of the birth certificate indicate that those parts were not filled out in the original form, yet those sections asking for the race of Obama's father and his field of work or study were completed in the version the president released in April 2011.

    Zullo said investigators previously did not know the meaning of codes but that the codes were explained by a 95-year-old former state worker who signed the president's birth certificate.

    Zullo said a news reporter who has helped out in the probe let investigators listen in on an interview of the former state worker he conducted.

    The Obama campaign declined to comment on Arpaio's allegations.

    The Arizona Democratic Party says in a statement that Arpaio's investigation is intended to draw attention away from problems within his own agency, such as hundreds of sex-crimes cases that the sheriff's office failed to adequately investigate over a three-year period.

    So-called 'birthers' maintain Obama is ineligible to be president because, they contend, he was born in Kenya.

    Hawaii officials have repeatedly confirmed Obama's citizenship, and state officials did again on Tuesday.

    'President Obama was born in Honolulu and his birth certificate is valid,' Joshua A. Wisch, a special assistant to Hawaii's attorney general, said in a statement.

    'Regarding the latest allegations from a sheriff in Arizona, they are untrue, misinformed, and misconstrue Hawaii law.'

    Wisch also said that 'not only are Hawaii's vital records some of the best managed, but they also have some of the strongest restrictions on access to prevent identity theft and fraud.'

    Obama released a copy of his long-form birth certificate in an attempt to quell citizenship questions.

    Courts have rebuffed lawsuits over the issue."
