We the People of the United States of America

we need to write to all the governmental official listed in the attachments, including pres Bush, that due to the fact that Mr. Obama refused to provide proof of eligibility (Hawaii allows to issue birth certificates to children of Hawaiian residents, that are born abroad, and issue them based on a statement of one realtive only) , he cannot be certified as President and he cannot receive National Security CIA briefings.

We believe all the Secretaries of State should give Mr. Obama 24 hours to sign the consent for relies of any and all documents, verifying his eligibility, including, but not limited to a certified copy of his original birth certificate with the name and the signature of the doctor and the name of the hospital, certified copy of the birthing records from the hospital noted in the birth certificate, any and all passports with all the immigration stamps, application and registration forms from Columbia university, Harvard college, Occidental College and the schools in Indonesia, that Mr. Obama attended; and official response from the Governments of Great Britain, Kenya and Indonesia in regards to Mr. Obama's citizenship status in those countries. If Mr. Obama refuses to provide such consent, or if the consent is provided, but the documents show him to be ineligible, no Secretary of State and no Governor of State has any legal right to sign the Certificate of Ascertainment, no Elector has any legal right to sign a certificate of vote, since doing so will constitute aiding and abetting fraud in voting and punishable by up to 3 years in jail (California election code 18500) and similarly punishable by corresponding statutes in other states of the union, it possibly can be viewed as aiding and abeting commission of treason.

This has to be forwarded to all the media outlets. We need to write to the media, that American citizens are reasonably relying on them to provide them with information in regards to such issues of National Importance. Refusal by Media to publish information in regards to Mr. Obama's status as a British Citizen by birth and other issues relating to his lack of eligibility to be the President of the US, is de facto aiding and abetting commission of fraud in voting and elections.

I believe we should contact all sponsors and all advertisers and all citizens that believe in the Constitution of this country an demand that they boycott all the media outlets that refuse to air this information that is akin to a Constitutional crisis. We should start a recall of all the Governors and Secretaries of States that sign the certificates of Ascertainment without proof of eligibility. No member of US military can be expected to risk his life under orders of a Commander in Chief, who was not willing to produce proof of his eligibility for office, no order or law signed by somebody, who was not proven to be eligible will be valid. We have to stop this constitutional crisis.

We the People of the United States of America Urgent Appeal 11.11.08. Attention: Governors of States, Secretaries of States, Attorney Generals, FBI Officials, Homeland Security Officials, State Department Officials, Immigration and Customs Enforcement Officials, Federal Elections Committee, Electors and Electoral College, Congressmen, Senators, State, Federal and Supreme Court Judges, Election Officials:

This letter is to put you on notice in regards to the following troubling facts:

1) From August 21 until now some 17 legal actions were filed all over this nation and at least 16 more are about to be filed shortly: those were individual or class actions, in different State and Federal courts. The plaintiffs: US citizens, voters, electors, different Party officials and candidates for office are alleging that Mr. Obama’s eligibility for Presidency was never verified by any governmental agency and mounting evidence suggests that he does not qualify as a Natural Born citizen and therefore cannot be sworn as the President of the United States. These actions were not heard on merits yet. The first action, filed by the former Deputy Attorney general of the State of Pennsylvania, Phillip J Berg against Mr. Obama and DNC, titled Berg v Obama el all is currently in the Supreme Court, awaiting resolution of question, whether a voter has standing to bring an issue of eligibility to court. Regardless of the Court decision on this matter, other parties with superior standing have filed similar actions. A second case has reached the Supreme Court recently. This case was filed by New Jersey attorney, Leo C Donofrio against the Secretary of State of New Jersey Nina Mitchell Wells. Mr. Donofrio states in his legal action that Ms. Wells did not fulfill her duties and did not verify the eligibility of the candidates. For example, she allowed on the ballot not only Mr. Obama, but another candidate, representing Labor party, that admitted that he is not a Natural Born citizen, but was rather born in Nicaragua. The very State and Federal officials that took the oath of office to uphold the Constitution, are trampling all over the Constitution and our rights as citizens to elect a candidate that is eligible to be the President according to the Constitution.

2) Numerous voters, concerned citizens have turned to the offices of the Secretaries of States and found out that none of the Secretaries of States verified Mr. Obama’s eligibility. Routinely the Secretaries of States simply allowed Mr. Obama to sign a form, stating that he is able to perform the function of the President without any independent verification that his statement is truthful and correct.

3) Numerous voters and concerned citizens have contacted the Federal Elections Committee (FEC) and found out that FEC did not do any verification of Mr. Obama’s eligibility either. FEC representatives have stated that they are dealing with financial aspects of the campaign, and even that was not done by the FEC, since for roughly half of the 650 million raised by Mr. Obama, there was no documentation, no names of the donors and there were numerous reports that there is a high probability that at least 65 million came from non US citizens.

4) There was no investigative reporting in the Press, since predominantly liberal media was pushing for Obama for president and was unwilling to show journalistic integrity and investigate or report anything negative in regards to Mr. Obama.

5) Most of the States in the Union contain statues in the election codes, that characterize election fraud or aiding and abetting election fraud, as a felony, punishable by lengthy jail terms. For example, California election statue 18500 states: “ Any person, who commits fraud and any person who aids and abets fraud or attempts to abet fraud, in connection with any vote cast, to be cast, is guilty of a felony, punishable by imprisonment for 16 months or two years or three years”

6) We, the people, the citizens of this country demand that all of you do not aid or abet commission of fraud, do not subject yourselves and others to the possible charges of aiding and abetting fraud and investigate the following facts:

a. according to affidavits presented in the Berg v. Obama to the Supreme Court, Sarah Obama, Mr.Obama’s paternal grandmother has repeatedly stated that Barack Obama was born in Kenya and she was present at the hospital, when he was born, which means that Mr. Obama is not a Natural Born Citizen and not qualified for Presidency. (based on 1952 code)

b. Mr. Obama has responded by posting on his web site “Fight the Smears” a “short version” form of Certification of Live Birth’, but categorically refused to provide a copy of a vault or (long version birth certificate), that would provide for a name of a hospital and a name and signature of the doctor. This is crucial, since the State of Hawaii allows residents of Hawaii to register in the state of Hawaii the birth of their children, born in another state or another country, such as Kenya. Please see in attachment a sample Certificate of Live Birth, Box 7C, asks for the County or State or other country of birth.(this provision exists due to the fact that numerous Hawaiians historically worked outside of the state, mostly on Solomon islands and Guadalcanal). This document also has provisions for the name of the hospital and the name and signature of the doctor. Additionally, Hawaii became a State in 1959, only two years before Mr. Obama’s birth. At a time numerous residents of Hawaii did not have birth certificates, therefore the state of Hawaii allowed residents born from 1902 until 1971 to obtain a different document called Certification of Hawaiian birth, that could be obtained simply by the statement made by a relative without any corroborating evidence. Therefore the short version birth certificate, posted by Mr. Obama on his web site, could’ve been based on an affidavit made by his mother or most probably by one of his grandparents, that he was born in Hawaii, even if he actually was born in Kenya. This could’ve been done not because Mr. Obama’s relatives thought that he would run for president one day, but simply to avoid the hustle and expense of going through some eight years of immigration procedures.

c. As of now no one was able to locate any hospital in Hawaii, any nurse, any doctor that would provide any evidence that Mr. Obama indeed was born on Hawaii.

d. Mr. Obama refused to provide any documents in Berg v Obama case.

e. Mr. Obama refused to consent to release of his vault or long version birth certificate.

f. Mr. Obama refused to consent to release of any records by any hospitals. g. Madelyn Dunham, his maternal grandmother remained silent and never refuted the statements that Mr. Obama was not born in Hawaii and no access was ever allowed to any reporters to ask Mrs. Madelyne Dunham one single question: “in what hospital on Hawaii was Mr. Obama born?’

h. Even if Mr. Obama would’ve been born in Hawaii (all the evidence states otherwise), he would’ve lost his citizenship by virtue of moving to Indonesia and obtaining Indonesian citizenship. Indonesia did not allow dual citizenship and Ms. Ann Dunham- Obama-Soetoro had to relinquish her son’s US citizenship in order to gain Indonesian citizenship.

i . In 1981, during the ban on travel to Pakistan for US citizens, Mr. Obama by his own admission had travelled to Pakistan. The only reasonable explanation, is that he did it using his Indonesian passport and using his prior name Barry Soetoro or his Kenyan passport, since he was entitled to the Kenyan citizenship, due to his father’s Kenyan citizenship (in 1963 Mombasa area became a part of Kenya), or he could’ve had a passport of British protected person, since at the time of his birth, in 1961, the area of Mombasa (his fathers homeland) was not independent yet (not until 1963) and was called Omani Sultanate of Zanzibar, British Protected Area. (it was ruled at the time by the Royal family from Oman and was part of British Protected areas).

Based on all of the above Mr. Obama was never a Natural born citizen, and he would’ve lost his natural born status, even if he had it by virtue of getting an Indonesian Citizenship, and he has divided allegiance and cannot become the President of the US. We the People, citizens of the United States of America, demand that you investigate these acts and refrain from certifying the vote or signing the Certificate of Ascertainment (to be signed by the Governors and Secretaries of States before the December 15 vote by the electors.) We demand that the Electors of the Electoral College refrain from signing the Certificate of Vote until there is verification of eligibility of Mr. Obama by properly authenticated documents, such as vault (long version) birth certificate, that shows the name of the hospital and the name and the signature of the doctor in Hawaii, birthing records from the hospital in Hawaii, certified copies of all and any passports held with immigration stamps, particularly immigration stamps from Pakistan from 1981, school enrollment records from Indonesia, Occidental college, Columbia University and Harvard college, that would show citizenship listed at the time of application. We demand that proper investigation would be done and, if the above facts and allegations are found to be true and correct, Mr. Obama be de-certified of the ballot.

We, the People of the United States of America, the land of law and order, the land of Constitution

Legal Basis
62. Article II, Section I of the United States Constitution, states, in pertinent part, as follows:
“No Person except a natural born citizen, or a citizen of the United States at the time of the adoption of this constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President;”

63. Senator Barack H. Obama is a candidate for the Office of the President of the United States. However, to assume such office, Senator Obama must meet the qualifications specified for the Office of the President of the United States, which includes that he must be a “natural born” citizen. Senator Obama has failed to demonstrate that he is a “natural born” citizen. There are other legal challenges before various state and federal courts regarding aspects of lost or dual citizenship concerning Senator Obama. Those challenges, in and of themselves, demonstrate Petitioners’ argument that reasonable doubt exists as to the eligibility of the Democratic Party’s nominee for President.
64. SOS is responsible for ensuring the validity of the State election process by, among other things, verifying the qualifications of the voters, approving the ballots and the candidates, supervising the counting of the ballots, and certifying the results. This certification of the vote by SOS, based upon which Electors received the highest number of votes in the state, is the method provided for in California

law for ascertaining which Electors are appointed to vote for president (California Elections Code §
15505, 3 U.S.C. § 6). On December 1, or as soon as soon as the election results have been received from all counties in the state, SOS shall certify the names of the ascertained Electors to the Governor, and then transmit to each presidential Elector a certificate of election (California Elections Code § 15505). The Governor then issues and seals a Certificate of Ascertainment which is delivered to the Electors by December 15 (3 U.S.C. § 6), who then meet to sign the Certificate of Vote (Federal Election Code § 192.006). The office of SOS is intended to be non-biased and to provide the critical sense of fairness and impartiality necessary for the people to have faith in the fundamental underpinnings of the democratic basis for our elections.
65. There is a reasonable and common expectation by the voters that to qualify for the ballot, the individuals running for office must meet minimum qualifications as outlined in the federal and state Constitutions and statutes, and that compliance with those minimum qualifications has been confirmed by the officials overseeing the election process. Heretofore, only a signed statement from the candidate attesting to his or her meeting those qualifications was requested and received by SOS, with no verification demanded. This practice represents a much lower standard than that demanded of one when requesting a California driver’s license. Since SOS has, as its core, the mission of certifying and establishing the validity of the election process, this writ seeks a Court Order barring SOS from certifying the California Electors until documentary proof that Senator Obama is a “natural born” citizen of the United States of America is received by her. This proof could include items such as his original birth certificate, showing the name of the hospital and the name and the signature of the doctor, all of his passports with immigration stamps, and verification from the governments where the candidate has resided, verifying that he did not, and does not, hold citizenship of these countries, and any other documents that certify an individual’s citizenship and/or qualification for office.
66. In the case of individuals seeking the Office of President of the United States, the United States Constitution provides for a system of Electors, wherein citizens of the respective states have a state

controlled election in which Electors representing the interests of the respective candidates for President
on the state ballot are elected to represent the interests of the respective state in the Electoral College. Thus, there is no federal ballot controlled by the federal government. There is a California State ballot where voters elect Electors who in turn represent the named candidate for office on the ballot. That is one more reason why SOS has responsibility for the certification of not just the counts of the ballots cast, but,
also, the propriety of the contents of the ballot. In case Senator Obama cannot present proper documentation verifying his citizenship, he cannot be elected President of the United States, and SOS has a duty to bar the casting of votes by California Electors in support of his candidacy.
67. To avert a constitutional crisis which would certainly accrue after the election through
laborious legal challenges, this writ seeks to resolve such complaints. It was incumbent on the candidates to present the necessary documentation confirming his citizenship, but, to date, Senator Obama has failed to do so.
68. At this point, Senator Obama has not allowed independent or official access to his vault (original hospital) birth records and supporting hospital records. Senator Obama’s citizenship status has been, and is being, challenged in 17 different legal actions in various federal and state courts, which challenges cast doubt on the validity of the electoral process, regardless of outcome, if not resolved prior to the certification of the election by the Electors. SOS is specifically charged with certifying and guaranteeing the validity of official documents and overseeing the elections in California, such that the people’s confidence in the fundamental aspect of democracy is maintained. To date, in this regard, SOS has not carried out that fundamental duty.
69. This writ requests a court order barring the SOS from both certifying to the Governor the names of the California Electors, and from transmitting to each presidential Elector a Certificate of Election, until such documentary proof is produced and verified showing that is a “natural born” citizen of the United States and does not hold citizenship in Indonesia, Kenya or Great Britain. In addition, this writ requests a court order barring the California Electors from signing the Certificate of Vote until such

documentary proof is produced and verified showing that Senator Obama is a “natural born” citizen of
the United States and does not hold citizenship in Indonesia, Kenya or Great Britain.
70. Should Senator Obama be discovered, after he takes office, to be ineligible for the Office of President of the United States of America and, thereby, his election declared void, Petitioners, as well as other Americans, will suffer irreparable harm in that an usurper will be sitting as the President of the United States, and none of the treaties, laws, or executive orders signed by him will be valid or legal.
71. 3 United States Code (U.S.C.) Section 8 provides, “The electors shall vote for President and Vice President, respectively, in the manner directed by the Constitution.” This federal statute confers upon each elector an affirmative duty to discover whether the candidate for President for which the elector is seeking election is a “natural born” citizen. Otherwise, the elector would not know if his vote was being cast in the “manner directed by the Constitution.”
72. Given this constitutionally mandated duty, PETITIONERS have standing to bring this Writ before this Court.
73. A growing number of questions have arisen in litigation in at least 10 states contesting whether Senator John McCain or Senator Barack Obama are “natural born” citizens and, therefore, constitutionally eligible to be entrusted with the Office of President of the United States. In the litigation against Senator Obama, allegations have been made that his admitted dual citizenship in Indonesia, and lack of evidence that he renounced the same, caused a loss of his United States Citizenship as a matter of law. Moreover, evidence released by the Obama campaign purporting to be a “Certification of Live Birth” on its face appears to be of questionable authenticity. One of the many problems with this evidence is that the border design differs from the border designs of other Certifications of Live Birth printed during the same time period. All these questions about both of the candidates are still unresolved. In the course of those lawsuits, some of which have been dismissed, it has been determined that there exists no designated official in the federal government, or the government of the states, directly charged with the responsibility of determining whether any Presidential candidate meets the qualifications of

Article II of the Constitution of the United States. In most states, that responsibility is vested with the
political parties, all of which have a conflict of interest in making any such determination, and none of which have been forthcoming with information or evidence verifying any candidate’s compliance with the eligibility requirements.
74. A press release was issued on October 31, 2008, by the Hawaii Department of Health by its Director, Dr. Chiyome Fukino. Dr. Fukino said that she had “personally seen and verified that the Hawaii State Department of Health has Senator Obama’s original birth certificate on record in accordance with state policies and procedures.” That statement failed to resolve any of the questions being raised by litigation and press accounts. Being “on record” could mean either that its contents are in the computer database of the department or there is an actual “vault” original.
75. Further, the report does not say whether the birth certificate in the “record” is a Certificate of Live Birth or a Certificate of Hawaiian Birth. In Hawaii, a Certificate of Live Birth resulting from hospital documentation, including a signature of an attending physician, is different from a Certificate of Hawaiian Birth. For births prior to 1972, a Certificate of Hawaiian Birth was the result of the uncorroborated testimony of one witness and was not generated by a hospital. Such a Certificate could be obtained up to one year from the date of the child’s birth. For that reason, its value as prima facie evidence is limited and could be overcome if any of the allegations of substantial evidence of birth outside Hawaii can be obtained. The vault (long Version) birth certificate, per Hawaiian Statute 883.176 allows the birth in another State or another country to be registered in Hawaii. Box 7C of the vault
Certificate of Live Birth contains a question, whether the birth was in Hawaii or another State or Country. Therefore, the only way to verify the exact location of birth is to review a certified copy or the original vault Certificate of Live Birth and compare the name of the hospital and the name and the signature of the doctor against the birthing records on file at the hospital noted on the Certificate of the Live Birth.
76. An unprecedented and looming constitutional crisis awaits if a President elected by the popular vote and the electoral vote does not constitutionally qualify to serve in that capacity. In addition,

if Senator Obama is not a “natural born” citizen and not eligible for presidency, Senator Obama will be
subject to the criminal Provisions of the California Elections Code, stating, “Any person who files or submit for filing a nomination paper or declaration of candidacy knowing that it, or any part of it, has been made falsely is punishable by a fine not exceeding one thousand dollars ($1,000) or by imprisonment in the state prison for 16 months or two or three years or by both the fine and imprisonment” (California Elections Code § 18203). Further, Senator Obama, SOS, the Governor of the State of California, and all of the California Electors may be subject to the penal provisions of the California Elections Code which states, “Any person who commits fraud and any person who aids or abets fraud or attempts to aid or abet fraud, in connection with any vote cast, to be cast, or attempted to be cast, is guilty of felony, punishable by imprisonment for 16 months or two or three years” (California Elections Code § 18500 ).
77. The Twentieth Amendment to the United States Constitution provides, “if the President elect shall have failed to qualify, then the Vice President elect shall act as President until a President shall have qualified; and the Congress may by law provide for the case wherein neither a President elect nor a Vice President elect shall have qualified, declaring who shall then act as President, or in the manner in which one who is to act shall be elected, and such person shall act accordingly until a President or Vice President shall have qualified.” Thus, if Senator Obama cannot take office due to his citizenship, succession to the Presidency is set.
II
BACKGROUND OF THE CASE
78. The Office of the Secretary of State of California is the California agency responsible for certifying candidates for inclusion on the ballot. Historically, California Secretaries of State have exercised their due diligence by reviewing necessary background documents, verifying that the candidates that were submitted by the respective political parties as eligible for the ballot were indeed eligible. In 1968, the Peace and Freedom Party submitted the name of Eldridge Cleaver as a qualified candidate for

President of the United States. The then SOS, Mr. Frank Jordan, found that, according to Mr. Cleaver’s
birth certificate, he was only 34 years old, one year shy of the 35 years of age needed to be on the ballot as a candidate for President. Using his administrative powers, Mr. Jordan removed Mr. Cleaver from the ballot. Mr. Cleaver unsuccessfully challenged this decision to the Supreme Court of the State of California, and, later, to the Supreme Court of the United States. Similarly, in 1984, the Peace and Freedom Party listed Mr. Larry Holmes as an eligible candidate in the Presidential primary. When the then SOS checked his eligibility, it was found that Mr. Holmes was similarly not eligible, and Mr. Holmes was removed from the ballot. Currently, we have a similar situation in that the Democratic Party has submitted the name of Senator Barack Obama as candidate for President.
79. However, there are a number of separate reasons that would make Senator Obama ineligible to serve as President of the United States. On August 21, 2008, Mr. Phillip J. Berg, former Deputy Attorney General of the State of Pennsylvania, filed a legal action against Senator Obama and the Democratic National Committee. With his action, and in the subsequent appeal to the Supreme Court of the United States, Mr. Berg provided documents to the effect that Senator Obama was born in what is now Kenya (the British East African Protectorate of Zanzibar at the time) and that his paternal grandmother was present at his birth. Senator Obama claims that he was born in Hawaii. According to statements made by his half-sister, Maya Soetoro Ng, he was born in Kapiolani Hospital in Hawaii. According to his biography posted on Wikipedia, Senator Obama was born in Queens Hospital in Hawaii. However, he has never provided the original hospital birth certificate from 1961, with the name of the hospital and the name and the signature of the doctor in attendance. All that Senator Obama has posted on his website is a Registry of Live Birth (short version), obtained in 2007, that does not provide the name of the hospital or the doctor. Clearly, one human being cannot be born in three different places. Hawaii Revised Statute 338-178 allows registration of birth in Hawaii for a child that was born outside of Hawaii to parents who, for a year preceding the child’s birth, claimed Hawaii as their place of residence.
The only way to know where Senator Obama was actually born is to view Senator Obama’s original

birth certificate from 1961 that shows the name of the hospital and the name and signature of the doctor
that delivered him. From August 21, 2008, for over two months, Senator Obama has refused to provide his original birth certificate, even though, in his book, Dreams of My Father, page 26, he states, “… I found the article folded between my birth certificate and old immunization records…” which shows that he clearly has his birth certificate, or that he lied in his book. Particularly telling is the fact that not one single person has come forward, not a doctor, not a nurse, not a hospital administrator, nor anyone else, to state that he or she was present during this birth, except for Obama’s paternal grandmother, who affirmed that she “was in the delivery room in Kenya when he was born Aug. 4, 1961.” Additionally, when Mr. Berg served subpoenas on the hospitals mentioned above, Senator Obama refused to sign a consent form that would allow the hospitals to release any of his information. Instead, Senator Obama has hired three law firms to defend himself, and has challenged the action by Mr. Berg on a technicality, claiming that an ordinary citizen does not have standing to bring the suit. This matter is currently being reviewed by the U.S. Supreme Court. The parties in this case have standing to bring this litigation, due to the fact that Dr. Keyes and Dr. Drake, Sr., are candidates on the California ballot for President and Vice President of the United States, and Mr. Robinson is an Elector for the Keyes-Drake ticket, and Vice Chairman of America’s Independent Party, of Fenton, Michigan, which nominated Dr. Keyes for President. He is also a Chairman of the American Independent Party (California), which nominated Dr. Keyes and Dr. Drake for President and Vice President, respectively. Based on the foregoing, it is imperative for SOS to be provided proof that Senator Obama is a “natural born” citizen.
80. If he was born in Hawaii, there are four (4) other obstacles to Senator Obama’s eligibility. In and about 1967, Senator Obama moved to Indonesia, took the last name of his stepfather, Soetoro, and went by the name Barry Soetoro. In original legal action filed by Mr. Berg, he presented Senator Obama’s school registration, showing him registered as Barry Soetoro, Citizenship-Indonesian,
Religion Islam, signed by L. Soetoro. From 1945, Indonesia has not allowed dual citizenship and, therefore, Ms. Dunham-Obama-Soetoro, Senator Obama’s mother, had to relinquish her son’s U.S.

citizenship in order to obtain Indonesian citizenship for him, which would make him ineligible to become
a United States President. Additionally, the United States could not allow dual citizenship with Indonesia at that time, as Indonesia did not allow dual citizenship, and it was prohibited by the Hague Convention of 1930, as interfering with the internal affairs of another sovereign Country.
81. In addition, upon return to the United States in and around 1971-1972, Senator Obama would have been required to go to the then current immigration procedures to regain his U.S. citizenship. There is no record of him ever doing that. Even if he had done so, he would be considered a naturalized citizen and not a “natural born” citizen.
82. Additionally, assuming Senator Obama was born in what is now Kenya, at the time of Senator Obama’s birth in 1961, (now) Kenya was the British Protectorate of Zanzibar and Senator Obama was automatically accorded a form of British citizenship under Section 32(1) of the British Nationality Act of 1948, effective date January 28, 1949, based on his father’s citizenship.
83. Finally, in 1981, Senator Obama traveled to Pakistan, when there was a ban for U.S. citizens to travel to Pakistan. The only logical possibility for him to do so was by using one of his other passports: Indonesian, Kenyan, or British.
84. Based on all of the above, it is the duty of the SOS to obtain proper documentation of Senator Obama’s citizenship to confirm his eligibility for the office of the President of the United States.
85. On October 25, 2008, SOS was contacted, via e-mail, by Orly Taitz, Esq., discussing the issues mentioned above. SOS has acknowledged receipt of said e-mail and sent a response. As of that time, SOS was on notice and had a duty to act. Ms. Taitz had a subsequent conversation with the election analyst of SOS Office, Ms. Philly Crosby. Ms. Taitz requested an administrative hearing on the matter in question. Ms. Crosby stated that she would discuss the matter with Ms. Bowen and SOS’ General Counsel, Ms. Pam Giarizzo, and that Ms. Giarizzo would telephone Ms. Taitz to discuss the issue. Ms.
Taitz followed this conversation with a second e-mail, confirming all the details of the conversation. As yet, SOS has taken no steps to request the necessary documents from Senator Obama. It appears that Ms.

Bowen is intending to certify Senator Obama, and to certify his Electors, and not protect the people of the
State of California by enforcing its laws. As a result of SOS declining to act pursuant to the above described legal obligations, the only remedy is to request relief from the Superior Court of California, and seek injunctive relief available to bar SOS from certifying the California Electoral votes until such documentary proof that Senator Obama’s United States citizenship is produced.
III
EFFECT OR FAILURE TO GRANT INJUNCTIVE RELIEF
86. Failing to officially and publically validate the status of the citizenship claims of Senator Obama will cast a pall of doubt on the election process and taint the election results themselves. A proper inquiry into Senator Obama’s eligibility will not constitute a hardship on Senator Obama, and it will not deny his voters the right to vote for him, since this very right is dependent on his eligibility for the office as a “natural born” citizen. If Senator Obama is not a “natural born” citizen, and, therefore, not eligible to serve as President, no hardship on him or any other Respondent can be shown. On the contrary, lack of the relief that is prayed for will constitute an insurmountable hardship on the voters of the State of California.
87. Failure to grant the relief sought would allow a potentially corrupted, fraudulent, nomination and election process to continue. If indeed, Senator Obama knew that he is not eligible for the presidency, he would be subject to California Election Code Section 18203, which states, “Any person who files or submits for filing a nomination paper or declaration of candidacy that it or any part of it has been made falsely is punishable by a fine not exceeding one thousand dollars ($1,000.00) or by imprisonment in the state prison for 16 months or two or three years or by both fine and imprisonment”. Additionally, he would be subject to California Elections Code Section 18500 that states, “Any person who commits fraud and any person who aids or abets fraud or attempts to aid or abet fraud, in connection
with any vote cast, to be cast, or attempted to be cast, is guilty of a felony, punishable by imprisonment for 16 months or two or three years”. Clearly it is imperative to vet Senator Obama’s eligibility for

presidency and resolve this issue prior to the certification of the election results by the electors.
88. Failure to grant the relief sought, demanding that SOS be ordered to verify the constitutionally required qualifications of Senator Obama not only allows, but promotes, an overwhelming degree of disrespect for our Constitution and for our electoral process, and creates such a lack of confidence of voters in the primary and electoral process itself, that it would confirm a common belief that no politician has to obey the laws of this Country, respect our election process, or follow the United States Constitution.
89. Petitioners Keyes and Drake will be irreparably harmed by being unable to compete in a fair and unbiased election. Petitioner Robinson will be harmed in that he will not be able to perform his duties as an Elector in voting for the candidate that is eligible to become the President of the United States under the law. It is incumbent on SOS to enforce the eligibility requirements.
PRAYER
WHEREFORE, Petitioners respectfully prays:
90. That the court issue a peremptory writ in the first instance barring Respondent Secretary of State of California, Ms. Bowen, from both certifying to the Governor the names of the California Electors, and from transmitting to each presidential Elector a Certificate of Election, until such documentary proof is produced and verified showing that Senator Obama is a “natural born” citizen of the United States and does not hold citizenship of Indonesia, Kenya or Great Britain. In addition, this writ requests that the court issue a peremptory writ barring Respondent California Electors from signing the Certificate of Vote until such documentary proof is produced and verified showing that Senator Obama is a “natural born” citizen of the United States and does not hold citizenship of Indonesia, Kenya or Great Britain.
91. For Petitioners’ attorney’s fees.
// //
// //
92. For such costs of this proceeding and fees as are applicable by law; and such further relief as the Court deems just and proper.
Respectfully submitted on November 12, 2008
