SACRAMENTO, Calif.- A former opponent of Barack Obama's has come back to haunt him over questions regarding Obama's citizenship.

Former presidential candidate Alan Keyes and other members of his American Independent Party have filed suit in California Superior Court in Sacramento to stop the state from giving its electoral votes to President-elect Barack Obama until documentary evidence is provided to prove Obama is indeed a citizen of the United States.

Some conservatives have questioned Obama's citizenship in recent months. Obama says he was born in Hawaii in 1961.

Keyes also ran against Obama as a Republican for the U.S. Senate seat in Illinois in 2004. Obama won that election to serve his first and only term in the U.S. Senate.

I hope that this reporter doesn’t need a bodyguard to come to NBC and pick-up his final pay check!

Have you seen this citizenship petition against Obama:

That is one possibility. But if born in Hawaii, that would be moot.

If born in Hawaii to a non-citizen and a citizen who had not lived in the U.S. for five years after her 16th birthday he is not a natural born citizen.

He fails the constitutional test independent of birthplace; the math is not lawful, two is not five.

Al Sharpton once called him magic, but he can't surmount this bar.

I believe that your scenario applies ONLY to a US parent when it is an overseas birth. I’m 95% certain that is the case.

There are more witnesses to and photos of Roswell's ufo craft and aliens than Hussein's Hawaiian birth.

QED he wasn't born in Hawaii.

And his mother alone at that age cannot confer upon him natural born citizen status.

“obama has stood by a fraudulent document. Isn’t forging a federal document a crime?”

I think so, but the problem is that it was some underling(s), not Obama himself, who did this. When campaigns violate campaign finance laws, there’s usually a fine or slap on wrist or in worst case the finance director gets in hot water legally. I’m pretty sure the candidate can reasonably claim he isn’t responsible for every single misguided action of literally thousands of campaign workers. To my knowledge, Obama himself never point blank asserted the validity of the document at fight-the-smears etc. As a lawyer, even had he been part of the fraudulent effort, he would be smart enough not to leave behind a smoking gun such as something in writing.

I glanced over there and noticed one person made a comment that Nancy Pelosi is drawing up an amendment to the Constitution that will abolish Article II.

Is this true??!!!!!!!!

You can be born via a pair of illegal aliens in this country and get natural born status, if I’m not mistaken.

Oh to be sure. Due to the complete misinterpretation of the Fourteenth Amendment Section 1 which ONLY applies to those subject to the jurisdiction [of the United States] meaning no illegals.

Liberal judges find Easter eggs and cooked hams in the auras and penumbras.

Dual citizenship at birth gives him a ‘graceful way’ to bow out if he is adament on not releasing his parentage and the unfolding fraud perpetrated on the public.

US Law very clearly states: '. . . If only one parent is a U.S. Citizen at the time of one's birth, that parent must have resided in the United States for minimum ten years, five of which must be after the age of 16.' Barack Obama's father was not a U.S. Citizen is a fact.

The law even more clearly states: "The following shall be nationals and citizens of the United States at birth: (a) a person born in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof;" If Obama was born in Hawaii, as claimed, then his mother could have been any age and he's still a natural born U.S. citizen. If he wasn't born in the U.S. then where's your evidence?

Yes he is. Title 8 > Chapter 12 > Subchapter III > Part I > § 1401 of the U.S. code says he is. The law you quote would only apply if Obama had not been born in the U.S.

Where should the burden of proof be? Upon a job seeker to demonstrate eligibility for a position, or upon an employer to prove ineligibility?

Depends. There is no law on the books which requires a presidential candidate to present their qualification to any state, federal, or local agency. As the person taking issue with his qualifications, if this were a court of law then I believe that as plaintiff the burden of proof would lie with you.
