George Stephanopoulos of ABC's Good Morning America brandished an Internet copy of President Obama's birth certificate today -- and appeared to persuade a Republican critic that the so-called "birther" flap is a non-issue.

"That's what should settle it," said U.S. Rep. Michelle Bachmann, R-Minn., who is considering a run for next year's Republican presidential nomination. "I take the president at his word and I think -- again, I would have no problem and apparently the president wouldn't either. Introduce that, we're done. Move on."

Stephanopoulos showed Bachmann a copy of the Certificate of Live Birth published on FactCheck.org.

The exchange starts shortly after the 4:05 mark of the video.

An excerpt from the interview:

Stephanopoulos: Well I have the president's certificate right here. It's certified, it's got a certification number. It's got the registrar of the state signed. It's got a seal on it. And it says 'this copy serves as prima facie evidence of the fact of birth in any court proceeding.' Bachmann: Well, then that should settle it. Stephanopoulos: So it's over? Bachmann: That's what should settle it. I take the president at his word and I think -- again I would have no problem and apparently the president wouldn't either. Introduce that, we're done. Move on.

Bachmann noted that the birth certificate isn't a big issue anyway -- budget deficits and the federal debt are.
