Presidential candidate Alan Keyes, AIP leaders sue in CA court to obtain Obama citizenship proof, stop Secretary of State from certifying Electors
Fenton, MI November 14, 2008
Presidential candidate Alan Keyes, vice-presidential candidate Wiley S. Drake, and the Chairman of the American Independent Party, Markham Robinson, have filed suit in California Superior Court in Sacramento seeking to bar Secretary of State Debra Bowen from certifying to Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger the names of Electors, and from transmitting to each presidential Elector a Certificate of Election, until documentary proof is produced and verified showing that Senator Obama is a natural born citizen of the United States, and does not hold citizenship of Indonesia, Kenya or Great Britain.
In addition, they have asked that the court issue a peremptory writ barring Senator Obamas California Electors from signing the Certificate of Vote until such documentary proof is produced and verified.
In response to questions about why the suit was being filed, Ambassador Alan Keyes commented, I and others are concerned that this issue be properly investigated and decided before Senator Obama takes office. Otherwise there will be a serious doubt as to the legitimacy of his tenure. This doubt would also affect the respect people have for the Constitution as the supreme law of the land. I hope the issue can be quickly clarified so that the new President can take office under no shadow of doubt. This will be good for him and for the nation.
Former Reagan administration official Ambassador Alan Keyes and Wiley S. Drake were the 2008 presidential and vice-presidential nominees of the American Independent Party, which is the California affiliate of the new national Americas Independent Party.
Mission Viejo, California attorney Dr. Orly Taitz and United States Justice Foundation Executive Director Gary Kreep are representing the plaintiffs in this case.
Copies of the court filing, along with further information concerning developments in this case, will be made available at www.AIPNEWS.com, or can be obtained by contacting AIP national chairman Tom Hoefling.

bump...
one time ping
this may be of interest, Keyes trying to block electorate until birth certificate verified
He is not producing this stuff because it's damning, obviously, but probably not for the reasons everyone thinks. Kenya or anywhere overseas for that matter could be a blind alley. It could be somewhere else stateside that would open up all sorts of questions.
Nice first post, and welcome to FreeRepublic!
bttt
Do you realize that at this moment we have nearly 500 posts on a thoroughly moronic thread?
Wow, 535 replies so far. This certifigate thing is getting harder to keep up with.
Wow, Keyes is involved now? Interesting.
Understand Berg was going to appeal, despite being denied "standing" (because he was a mere citizen -- pretty shaky damn reasoning if you ask me, in a case involving eligibility of public officeholders) by the federal district court in Philly?
Could he wind up before SCOTUS at the same time? Hell, let's all go!
The Secretary of State of all states, in my opinion, certainly have the required standing to bring the underlying Constitutional issue before the federal courts should the candidate not reply to their request for proof.
If only one Secretary of State from one state can be prodded into action without a writ of mandamus to compel them to act, then the issue could be resolved. If your SOS won't act, consider filing a writ of mandamus. It isn't a difficult petition, although in 27 years of practicing law, I have only filed one.
