Obama’s Birth Location


It is not going away, not yet anyway.

'Constitutional lawsuits’, more than a half dozen of them, still loom over Obama's birth location and his eligibility for President of the United States

In addition to the fact that President-elect Barrack Hussein Obammah is a trained Muslim from his childhood to the twenty years of study under the Black Muslim leadership of his madrassa and friend Jeremiah Wright and Louis Farrakhan, the American National Representative of the Nation of Islam, as well as the indoctrination of Malcolm X. and Elijah Muhammad. But now, Obama may not even be an American. Instead it may be proved in a court of law that he is a citizen of Islamic Kenya and or Islamic Indonesia.

Barrack Hussein Obammah may not only be the first Black President of the United States, and the first Muslim President of the United States, but he may also be the first ‘foreign born’ Black Muslim President of the United States.

‘A country of Law’
As a boy, I remember so-called elections like this one in some third world countries, I never thought this would ever happen in the free and Constitutional Republic of America. Could it be that it is no longer a free and Constitutional Republic.

The California secretary of state Debra Bowen (pictured) should refuse to allow the state's 55 Electoral College votes to be cast this December for the 2008 presidential election until President-elect Barack Obama verifies his eligibility to hold the office, alleges a California court petition filed on behalf of former presidential candidate Alan Keyes and others.

The legal action this week is just the latest is a series of challenges, some of which have gone as high as the U.S. Supreme Court, over the issue of Obama's status as a "natural-born citizen," a requirement set by the U.S. Constitution.

WorldNetDaily senior reporter and author Jerome Corsi even traveled to Kenya and Hawaii prior to the election to investigate issues surrounding Obama's birth. While his research and discoveries yielded no solid answers, it did raise more questions.

As I have so often said regarding the unanswered questions about Obama’s shrouded past, even if none of the plethora of questions and accusations are true, shouldn’t their at least be some answers to these questions or at most a grand jury investigation. Since when doesn’t the public have the right to know as the U.S. and State Constitutions provide?

The biggest question is why Obama, if a real Hawaii birth certificate exists, simply hasn't ordered it made available to settle the rumors, instead of the obvious fake one that he displayed on his website. .

The governor's office in Hawaii said there is a valid certificate but rejected requests for access and left ambiguous its origin: Does the certificate on file with the Department of Health indicate a Hawaii birth or was it generated after the Obama family registered a Kenyan birth in Hawaii?

Obama's half-sister, Maya Soetoro, has named two different Hawaii hospitals where Obama could have been born, yet there is no record of Obama or his Mother at any hospital in Hawaii. While a video posted on YouTube features Obama's Kenyan grandmother Sarah claiming to have witnessed Obama's birth in Kenya.

The California action was filed by Gary Kreep of the United States Justice Foundation on behalf of Alan Keyes, the presidential candidate of the American Independent Party, along with Wiley S. Drake and Markham Robinson, both California electors.

"Should Senator Obama be discovered, after he takes office, to be ineligible for the Office of President of the United States of America and, thereby, his election declared void, Petitioners, as well as other Americans, will suffer irreparable harm in that (a) usurper will be sitting as the President of the United States, and none of the treaties, laws, or executive orders signed by him will be valid or legal," the action challenges.

The petition is a request for the Superior Court of California in Sacramento County to issue a peremptory writ barring Secretary of State Debra Bowen "from both certifying to the governor the names of the California Electors, and from transmitting to each presidential Elector a Certificate of Election, until such 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."

It continues with a request for a writ, barring California's electors from signing the Certificate of Vote until documentary proof is produced.

The popular vote Nov. 4 favored Obama over Sen. John McCain by several percentage points. But because of the distribution of the votes, Obama is projected to take the Electoral College vote, when it is held in December, by a 2-to-1 margin.

Named as defendants in the action are California Secretary of State Bowen, President-elect Barack Obama, Vice-President-elect Joe Biden and the long list of California party electors.
Citing the constitutional requirement that a president be a "natural born" citizen, the case discusses other state and federal court cases regarding "aspects of lost or dual citizenship concerning Senator Obama. Those challenges, in and of themselves, demonstrate Petitioners' argument that reasonable doubt exists as to the eligibility of the Democratic Party’s nominee for President," the case said.

"There is a reasonable and common expectation by the voters that to qualify for the ballot, the individuals running for office must meet minimum qualifications as outlined in the federal and state Constitutions and statutes, and that compliance with those minimum qualifications has been confirmed by the officials overseeing the election process," the complaint said, when in fact the only documentation currently in existence is a signed statement from the candidate attesting to those qualifications.

"Since [the Secretary of State] has, as its core, the mission of certifying and establishing the validity of the election process, this writ seeks a Court Order barring SOS from certifying the California Electors until documentary proof that Senator Obama is a 'natural born' citizen of the United States of America is received by her," the document said.

"This proof could include items such as his original birth certificate, showing the name of the hospital and the name and the signature of the doctor, all of his passports with immigration stamps, and verification from the governments where the candidate has resided, verifying that he did not, and does not, hold citizenship of these countries, and any other documents that certify an individual’s citizenship and/or qualification for office.

"To this date, in this regard, SOS has not carried out this fundamental required duty."
The case said “a simple attestation from the candidate or his party is not sufficient documentation according to law”.

"Historically, California Secretaries of State have exercised their due diligence by reviewing necessary background documents, verifying that the candidates that were submitted by the respective political parties as eligible for the ballot were indeed eligible.

In 1968, the Peace and Freedom Party submitted the name of Eldridge Cleaver as a qualified candidate for President of the United States. The then SOS, Mr. Frank Jordan, found that, according to Mr. Cleaver's birth certificate, he was only 34 years old, one year shy of the 35 years of age needed to be on the ballot as a candidate for President. Using his administrative powers, Mr. Jordan removed Mr. Cleaver from the ballot. Mr. Cleaver unsuccessfully challenged this decision to the Supreme Court of the State of California, and, later, to the Supreme Court of the United States."

Similarly, in 1984, the Peace and Freedom Party candidate Larry Holmes was removed from the ballot.

The "certificate of live birth" that was posted by the Obama campaign (now conveniently removed) cannot be viewed as authoritative, it is obvious even to a layperson that the posted document is a fake, the case alleges.

"Hawaii Revised Statute 338-178 allows registration of birth in Hawaii for a child that was born outside of Hawaii to parents who, for a year preceding the child’s birth, claimed Hawaii as their place of residence," the document said. "The only way to know where Senator Obama was actually born is to view Senator Obama's original birth certificate from 1961 that shows the name of the hospital and the name and signature of the doctor that delivered him as well as a document ID number ."

The case also raises the circumstances of Obama's time during his youth in Indonesia, where he was listed as having Indonesian citizenship. Indonesia does not allow dual citizenship, raising the probability of Obama's mother having given up Obama’s previous citizenship.

Any other subsequent possible U.S. citizenship then, the case claims, would be "naturalized," not "natural-born."

"Based on all of the above, it is the duty of the SOS to obtain proper documentation of Senator Obama's citizenship to confirm his eligibility for the office or the President of the United States," the case said.

Just this week, WorldNetDaily has reported on more than half a dozen other legal challenges have been filed in federal and state courts demanding Obama's decertification from ballots or seeking to halt elector meetings, claiming he has failed to prove his U.S. citizenship status.

THE BOTTOM LINE: Among the States where cases are being tracked are Ohio, Connecticut, Washington, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Georgia and Hawaii, and there were reports of other cases being developed in Utah, Wyoming, Florida, New York, North Carolina, Texas, California, and Virginia.

Can we ask, just where our socialist/communist/Muslim Congress is, in all this?

No! We can’t…
