Does any aspect of Donofrio’s case even challenge the actual location/country of Obama’s birth?

ICBW, but I believe Donofrio's case does....albeit in a round-about manner.

He is suing the NJ SoS for not vetting BHO or the other candidates as to their Constitutional qualifications for office. If the NJ SoS did not vet the candidates, Donofrio wins and SCOTUS would rule that such vetting must take place. If the NJ SoS did vet the candidates, then whatever bona-fides (e.g. birth certificates) were used by the candidates must be presented.

Either way, IMO, this will require the release of BHO's birth certificate which may show that he was not born in HI.

But if Donofrio is suing for something that he himself has claimed is already public knowledge, and supported by Obama’s own COLB, than on what basis would the SCOTUS request further documentation, such as original birth records?

Unless I missed something, Donofrio is only holding the NJ SoS liable for not acknowledging what was made public by Obama himself, via his own “forged” COLB. If they are going to rule as to what is printed on his his COLB (forged or not), rather than its accuracy, I just do not see a path to the original birth records for his case.
