For Immediate Release: - 08/21/08

Suit filed 08/21/08, No. 08-cv-4083

Contact information at the end of this press release. Documents filed with the court and a copy of this press release can be downloaded at the end of this press release.

(Lafayette Hill, Pennsylvania – 08/21/08) - Philip J. Berg, Esquire, [Berg is a former Deputy Attorney General of Pennsylvania; former candidate for Governor and U.S. Senate in Democratic Primaries; former Chair of the Democratic Party in Montgomery County; former member of Democratic State Committee; an attorney with offices in Montgomery County, PA and an active practice in Philadelphia, PA, filed a lawsuit in Federal Court today, Berg vs. Obama, Civil Action No. 08-cv-4083, seeking a Declaratory Judgment and an Injunction that Obama does not meet the qualifications to be President of the United States. Berg filed this suit for the best interests of the Democratic Party and the citizens of the United States.

Philip J. Berg, Esquire stated in his lawsuit that Senator Obama:

1. Is not a naturalized citizen; and/or

2. Lost his citizenship when he was adopted in Indonesia; and/or

3. Has dual loyalties because of his citizenship with Kenya and Indonesia.

Berg stated: “I filed this action at this time to avoid the obvious problems that will occur when the Republican Party raises these issues after Obama is nominated.

There have been numerous questions raised about Obama’s background with no satisfactory answers. The questions that I have addressed include, but are not limited to:

1. Where was Obama born? Hawaii; an island off of Hawaii; Kenya; Canada; or ?

2. Was he a citizen of Kenya, Indonesia and/or Canada?

3. What was the early childhood of Obama in Hawaii; in Kenya; in Indonesia when he was adopted; and later, back to Hawaii?

4. An explanation as to the various names utilized by Obama that include: Barack Hussein Obama; Barry Soetoro; Barry Obama; Barack Dunham; and Barry Dunham.

5. Illinois Bar Application – Obama fails to acknowledge use of names other than Barack Hussein Obama, a blatant lie.

If Obama can prove U.S. citizenship, we still have the issue of muti-citizenship with responsibilities owed to and allegance to other countries.

Berg continued:

Maybe it is, but people believe fact check for the most part. It would be pretty stupid for them to say they have touched and photographed the real birth certificate if it doesn’t exist.

No, it’s not going anywhere in the near term, but it’s aim is more political than legal — to sow doubt in the minds of the Super-delegates.

I recognize that, but I don't think this is going to cause any superdelegates to waver. A lot of them are lawyers, and they are going to recognize this for what it is -- a rant and nothing more.

That said, there are a lot of interesting issues raised in Berg's Complaint. I would love to see them really investigated by someone competent.

Factcheck.org has very heavy ties to both Barrack Obama and his bestest bomber buddy weatherman Bill Ayers.

Obama is probably a citizen of Kenya, Indonesia, Canada and (maybe) the US. The question is which nation will he be deported to.

See the bottom of their website page:

Love this part:

FactCheck.org's staff, not the Annenberg Center, is responsible for this material. {yeah, right...whatever you say}

I beg to differ; First, this puts a lot of pressure on Obama to come open and clean on his whole citizenship status. Secondly, even if the chances are slim, the stakes are enormous for the Dem Party, and that will make for some head-scratching.

I can understand the argument (though it's not in accordance with current Supreme Court law) that birth in the US + American Citizen Mom (if under a certain age), isn't enough to make you a citizen.

BUT, IF you are a citizen at Birth, I can't possibly see how being jerked around the world as a kid, voluntarily or involuntarily, by mom, dad, step dad, kidnappers, or whoever, can possibly de-citizenize you.

Imagine that your kid is 100% American. your spouse decides to split when kid is 5, goes to Flyspeckia, marries a Flyspeckian -- your kid's not an American any more?? She can never be President?? I doubt that you would think so.

Yeah. It's a great program.

I have a "Youngster" (2nd year Naval Academy) who did the NAPs program.

Goes WITH THE KID -- if that wasn't understood as implied.

I sent an email to my brother in Washington, DC yesterday, as soon as I heard about Berg's lawsuit, and received this reply from him last night:

[excerpt]

Actually a friend of mine who works at a wire service called be around 9 telling me "YOU WON'T BELIEVE THIS!" ...

He told me the below [my email] and I told him I've heard rumor of it already ... Then I told him he needs to spend less time with the NYT and more time reading THE SPOTLIGHT ...

Anyway, he said that it is all anyone is talking about at the National Press Club ...

I wrote him back, a bit harshly, saying that the media was ignoring Berg's lawsuit, and that his friend probably meant the Factcheck thing.

He wrote me back today, correcting me.

[excerpt]

No - my friend at the Press Club was talking about the exact same thing you were: The temporary restraining order out of the PA US District Court ...

He said they were trying to figure out if it is something to report or ignore ...

CNN, acknowledging, though dismissing, the question BHO's birth certificate their take, not mine, on how to handle the potential issue ... Though it was still more than anyone else in the MSM has done ... And it also indicates how the story will be spun if it has to be discussed ...

My goal was just to let you know that the MSM is actively concerned they might have to talk about this ...

I consider my brother a reliable source on this. So, on the word of his friend, we have it that -- although the media have been ignoring the Lawsuit story in public, in private it was "all anyone is talking about" at the National Press Club in Washington, DC, last night.

AND that the media folks are worried that circumstances might force them to report on Philip Berg's Lawsuit.

Incidentally, this is the same brother who told me about Shepard Fairey.

Hmmmm! what is going on here!

From Berg’s Lawsuit!

Wayne Madsen, Journalist with Online Journal as a contributing writer and
published an article on June 9, 2008 stating that a research team went to Mombassa, Kenya,
and located a Certificate Registering the birth of Barack Obama, Jr. at a Maternity Hospital,
to his father, a Kenyan citizen and his mother, a U.S. citizen.
At the time of Obama’s birth in 1961, Kenya was a British Colony. There is a
purported Canadian Birth Certificate, posted on the Internet, in the name of Barack Hussein
Obama, Jr.; however, the date of birth is shown as August 23, 1961.

“I can understand the argument (though it’s not in accordance with current Supreme Court law) that birth in the US + American Citizen Mom (if under a certain age), isn’t enough to make you a citizen.”

You misunderstand the entire case. The question is not whether Obama is a citizen, but whether he fulfills the requirement of a “natural born citizen” ie born-on-American-soil. A citizen and a natural born citizen are two different things. I hope that cleared it up some, I know it’s a bit confusing.
