Fact Check is associated with Obama through the Annenberg group. There is a conflict of interest there.
Annenberg as a source?
Berg is a “truther”, a Bush hating clown, as well as being a Hillary supporter.
Ping to you.
Your factcheck site is allied with Obama.
bttt
That website is a site run by the Obama campaign.
If he couldn’t qualify for the Presidency, would he still be qualified to be a US Senator?
“Actually, I think Berg is a Hillary supporter.”
That makes 2 of us
This one of many suits popping up questioning Obama’s birth certificate.
PASS THE POPCORN....PING!!!!
Prove it.
This could backfire...Hillary may be harder to beat.
Well, good luck.
I’m sure that the court calendar is so full, this court will finally get around to hearing this complaint in year 2017.
US Constitution Article I Section 3: No person shall be a Senator who shall not have attained to the age of thirty years, and been nine years a citizen of the United States and who shall not, when elected, be an inhabitant of that state for which he shall be chosen.
Are there others? Do you know where?
He has held, and maybe still does hold, Indonesian citizenship which also makes him ineligible for holding the Office of President. Can't have dual citizenship and run for President.
However, even if he renounced his Indonesian citizenship there is still a problem, he was adopted by his stepfather, his name was changed to Soetoro, there is no record that he ever changed it back and because he lied about his name and having held Indonesian citizenship this also disqualifies him for holding the office of President.
There is also the fact that most likely(since Indonesian law says you can only hold one citizenship)his step father ivalidated his American citizenship(if he actually held one)in order to declare him an Indonesian citizen.
This means that if he reapplied for citizenship when he reached 18, and there is no record he did, he would then be naturalized citizen and not a natural born citizen, again disqualifying him. This suit has legs and Obama now has to actually prove he was born in Hawaii, that he is NOT NOW or NEVER has been an Indonesian citizen(which he can't do since there is ample proof he held such citizenship and probably still does)and that his name is legally Barrack H. Obama and not Soetoro.
He cannot prove all of those(maybe his birth in Hawaii) and even one of those items is enough to sink him.
Yes, the Wikipedia source is not great—Berg should have consulted the footnotes, if any, and quoted those.
Also, what would be this guy’s standing to sue? Would his status as a citizen be enough?
So he’s a PUMA member.
