There have been a number of lawsuits filed regarding Obama’s birth status.
None have gained any traction in court.
But the very very first such lawsuit, was filed by a Democrat activist named Philip Berg. His lawsuit was filed on the eve of the 2008 Democrat convention.
I’ve always wondered about this. Philip Berg being a good Democrat, why would he have wanted to set up a s%*^ storm on the eve of his party’s nominating convention that year? If his lawsuit had gone anywhere, it would have upset the applecart.
I have yet to hear anyone in the mainstream media talk about Philip Berg, or talk to him, or ask him why, he being a good Democrat, would file a lawsuit over Obama’s birth.
If you look at Berg’s lawsuit, I think you will find that it focused on Obama’s failure to be a “Natural Born Citizen,” due to a non-citizen parent, not due to Obama’s alleged foreign birth.
There used to be a nice list of archived posts here on Phil Berg because he was involved in an earlier kook conspiracy festival, long before Obama was on the radar, and unrelated to the birther controversy.
I don’t know if we can search back far enough to refresh my memory but it was the main reason I was suspicious of the birther thing. The other reason was because a guy we were already familiar with here for being few pallets short of a truckload , Pat Lang, was hard selling the rumor too. In my opinion Obama simply claimed foreign birth to gain an advantage in college, like his pal Fauxcahontas claimed to be Cherokee, and it stuck.
