The Pennsylvania Democrat who has sued Sen. Barack Obama demanding he prove his American citizinship - and therefore qualification to run for president - has confirmed he has a recording of a telephone call from the senator's paternal grandmother confirming his birth in Kenya.
The issue of Obama's birthplace, which he states is Honolulu in 1961, has been raised enough times that his campaign website has posted an image purporting to be of his "Certification of Live Birth" from Hawaii.
But Philip J. Berg, a former deputy attorney general for Pennsylvania, told the Michael Savage talk radio program tonight that the document is forged and that he has a tape recording he will soon release.
"This has been a real sham he's pulled off for the last 20 months," Berg told Savage. "I'll release it [the tape] in a day or two, affidavits from her talking to a certain person. I heard the tape. She was speaking [to someone] here in the United States."
He said the telephone call was from Obama's paternal grandmother affirming she "was in the delivery room in Kenya when he was born Aug. 4, 1961."

I call BS. If he has the tape why not post it...?
Well now. Isn’t this going to be fun!
this better get traction or we could end up with a foreigner running our country.
LOL
Oh, stop it. He’s either fishing for a payoff or he doesn’t have it.
This guy Berg is a joke.
Another tape, another day. Geesh.
I wouldn’t hold your breath folks. Let’s stay focused, and not let these kooks distract us until they provide proof.
I heard about this. The tape is not in English and he has to get a couple of native speakers to generate and certify a transcript.
Whatever. I have no doubt he was, but RELEASE THE TAPE (that doesn't exist.)
Old news....nothing to see here.....
I am sick of this. Corruption cannit be rewarded. If this is true...release the dang tape and bring directly to the public. Clearly the courts are not the way to go.
Ahhh...the B.S. conspiracy threads.
Must be Sunday!
ii) Even if the tape does exist, and the other camp doesn't immediately say its fake, or they have to do is show that Obama's paternal grandmother is not only very old, but she needs a personal translator (a relative called Said Obama) to translate for her. Thus, they'd just say that she either did not understand the question, that the translator mistranslated it for her, or that she gave the correct answer but the translated said the wrong response in English.
Unless the tape is in Dholuo ...
Anyways, the best way to hammer this issue is not to wait for tapes that I doubt will ever exist. It would have been for McCain to say today (at Meet the Press), or for Palin to release a TV ad, straightup challenging Obama to release the BC for the 'sake of citizen concerns.' That will either make Obama to release it, or it will make people wonder why he is not doing so should he refuse.
If we wait for magic tapes of Whitey or Grannies or API confessions, I fear that you are simply being taken for a ride.
Problem is, the guy is looking for his 15 minutes.
“let’s stay focused.”
Exactly, socialism looms and the tin-foil hats are fiddling.
I fear Dan Rather is laughing at us somewhere...
NBC wouldn’t care if there was video of Obama molesting a dead horse.
