Obama Refuses to Answer Birth Certificate Lawsuit
Newsmax ^ | Friday, October 24, 2008 | Kenneth R. Timmerman

Posted on 10/24/2008 9:26:51 PM PDT by Jim W N

A Pennsylvania lawsuit alleging that Barack Obama is not a “natural-born citizen” of the United States took an unusual twist this week, after a federally mandated deadline requiring Obama’s lawyers to produce a “vault” copy of his birth certificate expired with no response from Obama or his lawyers.

The lawsuit, filed by former Pennsylvania Deputy Attorney General Philip J. Berg — a self-avowed supporter of Hillary Clinton — alleges that Barack Obama was born in Kenya and is thus “ineligible” to run for president of the United States. It demands that Obama’s lawyers produce a copy of his original birth certificate to prove that he is a natural-born U.S. citizen.

Berg's suit and allegations have set off a wave of Internet buzz and rumors, though Obama could easily have put the matter to rest by providing the federal court with the basic documentation proving he is eligible to take the oath of a president. But Obama has apparently decided to deny the court and the public that documentation.

The Constitution provides that any U.S. citizen is eligible to become president if the person is 35 years of age or older and is a natural-born citizen; that is, born in the territorial United States.

Barack Obama’s African grandmother Sarah Onyango Obama roots for him

Looks as if the name Hussein is carried by the males of the Obama clan. Now that makes sense. The woman’s ethnicity doesn’t count to an arab. The arab name follows the male line.

I think I know where this is headed. Obama is going to deliver a speech along the lines of Dick Nixon’s “checkers” speech on prime time. It won’t matter if he admits that his dad is some commie, or his middle name is Mohammed, or if he says he’s an illegal alien because the MSM will fawn all over him until election day.

What can we do to counter this strategy?

The MSM never bothered to check on the research performed on the Obama COLB image, and consequently, continue to write it off as a crazy conspiracy theory."

We need to hammer into their heads three points:

1. Obama has never released an actual copy of his original birth certificate or an actual copy of his Certification of Live Birth to anyone, because, in all likelihood, one exists. 2. Instead of posting genuine copies of these documents to the Internet (assuming their existence), Obama's campaign fabricated a forged COLB image instead that it claimed was Obama's original birth certificate, for the sole purpose of defrauding the American public into thinking that Obama was a natural-born citizen of Hawaii. This COLB image was conclusively proven to be a fake and yet Obama refuses to submit a genuine COLB copy to refute this charge. 3. Three copies of this single, fabricated image were subsequently posted to the Daily kos, Fight The Smears, and FactCheck.org. These copies differ only in size and quality. 4. FactCheck, in particular, attempted to cover-up the charges that the COLB image was bogus by creating composite and superimposed photos that were altered to resemble what a real COLB might look like. These photos were also intentionally fabricated to defraud the American public. The existence of a phony birth certificate goes hand-in-hand with the failure of Obama to produce his real one as requested by the court. When crooks want to get lots of money and they do not care how they get it, then making counterfeit bills is an attractive option. The existence of counterfeit bills in someone's possession is enough to charge them with committing a crime. So, too, is it with the counterfeit COLBs.

"If Obama is not eligible and 'wins' the election, McCain becomes President."

I'm not ABSOLUTELY positive, but I'm pretty sure that if 0Bama wins, is found ineligible, then it is say hello to President Biden, not McCain.

Then when Biden realizes what just happened, his head will explode, then Nancy Pelosi becomes President.

That last part was a joke, but would actually, unfortunately, horribly, be true if it happened.

***Perhaps you meant “because, in all likelihood, one does NOT exist.” Or something along the lines of, “IF one exists, it shows a live birth in Kenya” or something like that?

Speculation is that either he has no birth certificate in Hawaii or the name is substantially different. Either is death to the campaign at this point. Part of the application to get your name on the ballot asks if you have changed your name or have any aliases. Obama said no to both.

Who cares if the DNC replaces him. If I was in McCain camp I would love to see Obama taken off the ballot. If Hillary got put on ballot she would lose. Berg, the man that started this, is a Hillary supporter. Most of Obams’s supporters would blame her for Obama getting taken out and wouldn’t vote for her. She can’t win if they don’t vote for her.

No matter how obtuse an electorate is, no spin ever devised would make them buy that. I don't think.

From What kind of people vote a month before the campaign ends?:

These people were making such well-informed decisions that none of them said they were nervous that something would happen before the election to make them regret their vote. "Obama would have to eat a baby onstage with condiments and not wash his hands after," one told me. Another thought about my question for a minute and said, "Nothing could happen that I couldn't rationalize."

NObama was born in Kenya. His own Grandma said so.

Where is the oversight on this?

How difficult is it to provide a Birth Certificate?????

Hey, where are Wright, Rezko, Ayers and Farrakan? No support.

What infuriates me time and time again are the FReepers who continue to argue that if one parent is a US Citizen, then so is obama, completely missing the issue:

FORGERY=FRAUD!
