In addition, WND has a column showing that the number assigned to the President’s birth certificate doesn’t fit the process which was used by the state at the time, and a youtube video which claims that parts of the recently released long form birth certificate have font characteristics which a typewriter couldn’t have created:

Edit:  Josh suggested that the “M” in “Male” was higher than the other characters, which caused the word to look straight once the page was curved.  Looking at the PDF file under magnification I think he has a good point here.  I drew a line under the entire name of the hospital using the GIMP straight line feature:
