It seems there is some question as to whether or not Obama is an American citizen. Yet we have heard nothing from the biased news media about this. Where is the story New York Times?
Philip J. Berg, a former deputy attorney General, raises questions about the place of Barack Hussein's birth. He contends that Obama was born in Kenya and that his mother merely registered his birth in Hawaii.
Berg a prominent Philidelphia attorney, former gubernatorial and senatorial candidate, former chair of the Democratic Party in Montgomery (PA) County, former member of the Democratic State Committee, and former Deputy Attorney General of Pennsylvania. According to Berg, he filed the suit--just days before the DNC is to hold its nominating convention in Denver--for the health of the Democratic Party. Â Berg filed suit this afternoon in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania against Illinois Sen. Barack Obama, the Democratic National Committee and the Federal Election Commission. The action seeks an injunction preventing the senator from continuing his candidacy and a court order enjoining the DNC from nominating him next week, all on grounds that Sen. Obama is constitutionally ineligible to run for and hold the office of President of the United States.
Berg claims in the lawsuit, that Obama was born in Kenya, not Hawaii as Senator Obama claims (and we all know Obama doesn't lie). The lawsuit claims Obama's mother traveled to Kenya with his father but was prevented from flying back to Hawaii because of the late stage of her pregnancy, "apparently a normal restriction to avoid births during a flight." Which is also what Obama's paternal grandmother, half brother and half sister have also claimed.
According to Berg, inconsistent accounts of Obama's birth, including reports that he was born in two different hospitals--Kapiolani Hospital and Queens Hospital--in Honolulu, as well a profound lack of birthing records for Stanley Ann Dunham, though simple "registry of birth" records for Barack Obama are available in a Hawaiian public records office.
If Obama was really born in Kenya, Berg says, thelaws on the books at the time of Obama's birth hold that U.S. citizenship may only pass to a child born overseas to a U.S. citizen parent and a non parent if the former is at least 19 years of age. Obama's mother was only 18 at the time and therefore, because U.S. citizenship could not legally be passed on to him, Obama couldn't be registered as a "natural born" citizen and is thus not eligible to seek the presidency pursuant to Article II, Section 1 of the United States Constitution.
Berg also states that if Sen. Obama could have somehow been deemed  "natural born" that citizenship was lost in or around 1967 when he and his mother took up residency in Indonesia, where Stanley Ann Dunham married Lolo Soetoro, an Indonesian citizen. Berg also states that he possesses copies of Sen. Obama's registration to Fransiskus Assisi School In Jakarta, Indonesia which clearly show that he was registered under the name "Barry Soetoro" and his citizenship listed as Indonesian.

Seems everyone is ignoring this issue.
Why doesn't the Barack Hussien Obama camp come clean and release proof of his citizenship?
Why hasn't Hillary or McCain pushed the issue?
Do these people know something we don't know?
Com'on people, I know the koolaiders have been in. And not one single rant about McCain or Bush.

(compliments of snopes.com)
You really just look stupid when you do this.
He won't recite the Pledge of Allegiance or sing our National Anthem or wear an American flag pin on his lapel.
It would be more accurate to say that Obama sees himself as a "citizen of the world," rather than as a citizen of merely one country.
If he wins in November, many who believed in him and voted for him will realize this apparent fact too late and will rue the day they made him our country's president.
This is absolute bushit. Wherever you got this information, you should scratch that source off your list, or scratch his/her eyes out for being such a loser.
"it is better to remain silent and let people THINK you are an idiot than to speak and remove ALL doubt".....sheesh!
if "ignorance is bliss",then you and those of your ilk must be freakin' delirious.....!
It says plain as day I won't wear the pin on my chest, how can that be a lie?
Senator John McCain,
Born : August 29, 1936 in the Panama Canal Zone
Goodness! There must be millions of poor people out there who are no longer US citizens and don't know this.
Do women (and their dependent children) still lose their citizenship if they marry a foreigner? Who's the last person this happened to? How would they know this happened, and that they should take the oath of allegiance to reestablish their citizenship, if they are still issued a US passport and treated as a citizen by the state?
(If they had indeed lost their citizenship, they would have been denied a US passport, as this guy was. Oops, he sued, and note the decision that guides current policy.)
Seems everyone is ignoring this issue."
Or, fifty-nine out of sixty people are not whack jobs and can see through another hysterical bit of idiotc fear-mongering.
Don you should read the Chicago Tribune and other real newspapers every now and then.
Fact Check. Org sent investigators to check it read below.

The truth about Obama's birth certificate.
Summary
In June, the Obama campaign released a digitally scanned image of his birth certificate to quell speculative charges that he might not be a natural-born citizen. But the image prompted more blog-based skepticism about the document's authenticity. And recently, author Jerome Corsi, whose book attacks Obama, said in a TV interview that the birth certificate the campaign has is "fake."
We beg to differ. FactCheck.org staffers have now seen, touched, examined and photographed the original birth certificate. We conclude that it meets all of the requirements from the State Department for proving U.S. citizenship. Claims that the document lacks a raised seal or a signature are false. We have posted high-resolution photographs of the document as "supporting documents" to this article. Our conclusion: Obama was born in the U.S.A. just as he has always said.
Analysis
Since we first wrote about Obama's birth certificate on June 16, speculation on his citizenship has continued apace. Some claim that Obama posted a fake birth certificate to his Web page. That charge leaped from the blogosphere to the mainstream media earlier this week when Jerome Corsi, author of a book attacking Obama, repeated the claim in an Aug. 15 interview with Steve Doocy on Fox News.
Corsi: Well, what would be really helpful is if Senator Obama would release primary documents like his birth certificate. The campaign has a false, fake birth certificate posted on their website. How is anybody supposed to really piece together his life?
Doocy: What do you mean they have a "false birth certificate" on their Web site?
Corsi: The original birth certificate of Obama has never been released, and the campaign refuses to release it.
Doocy: Well, couldn't it just be a State of Hawaii-produced duplicate?
Corsi: No, it's a -- there's been good analysis of it on the Internet, and it's been shown to have watermarks from Photoshop. It's a fake document that's on the Web site right now, and the original birth certificate the campaign refuses to produce.
Corsi isn't the only skeptic claiming that the document is a forgery. Among the most frequent objections we saw on forums, blogs and e-mails are:
* The birth certificate doesn't have a raised seal.
* It isn't signed.
* No creases from folding are evident in the scanned version.
* In the zoomed-in view, there's a strange halo around the letters.
* The certificate number is blacked out.
* The date bleeding through from the back seems to say "2007," but the document wasn't released until 2008.
* The document is a "certification of birth," not a "certificate of birth."
Recently FactCheck representatives got a chance to spend some time with the birth certificate, and we can attest to the fact that it is real and three-dimensional and resides at the Obama headquarters in Chicago. We can assure readers that the certificate does bear a raised seal, and that it's stamped on the back by Hawaii state registrar Alvin T. Onaka (who uses a signature stamp rather than signing individual birth certificates). We even brought home a few photographs.
The photos are on the fact Check Link

(Thanks, Brian. Just in case some people don't read to the end of your long comment.)
Obama is a U.S. Citizen.
In other news, yes, grass really is green. The sky really is blue. And you are an idiot.
http://www.snopes.com/politics/obama/anthem.asp
I would advise those in opposition to Mr. Obama to seek to completely validate all he's statements.
No. That would be the correct way to pronounce the word. I mean that word people use when they think they are insulting intelligent, thoughtful people. Librul.
Now, if a guy can be involved in politics as long as Obama and get as far as the Senate, without being a US citizen, then we have wasted a shitload of money on Homeland Security. Or wait! Maybe GOD wants Obama to be president!
He says, "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."
That's a lot of balogna, BUT it is interesting that he is an avid Clinton supporter, though the article also states that he's acting on his own here, and not an agent of Clinton. What makes it especially interesting to me is that I read an article from The American Thinker that was published today saying that Hillary has not really given up the fight, and she's got a telephone campaign going still hounding superdelegates. All other reports I've read indicate that she's 100% behind Obama now. Perceiving her as I do, I find that so 'un-Clintonesque.' I do find this lawsuit and the telephone campaign much more her style. I'm not saying she's behind the lawsuit either, but the timing is interesting. We have also to note that Berg, the attorney filing the suit, is a bit of whacko. Some of the very commentators here would be the first ones behind him because he's a big 9-11 conspiracy theorist too. I want to watch how this goes. It's just very intriguing to me because the players and the 'possible players' are Democrats. It's that same phrase that Mark-John pointed out to me in one of my articles, "sharks eat their own."
Don (send the repugnicons home in Nov. ) S., Aug 23, 2008, 11:26am EDT
Great contribution there Don I wanna be a republican. I must be a racist, I don't like Barack Hussein. LMAO. Get a life jerk.
I also included this information about factcheck.org that everyone keeps talking about.
Hhave you seen the questions that have been raised about Obama's connection to this organization? Factcheck, Obama, Ayers, Annenberg, and ACORN: a family affair?
The koolaid crowd only beleives what their great half white hope, the prince of pander, the king of flip flop, tells them to beleive. They could care less about Ayers, Khalidi, Manning, Meeks, Wright, Rezko or any of the other sleazy associates of Obama.
Gale, the herd left earlier, I suggest you join the other cows.
Philip Berg is definitely a whacko -- but not only that he has been fined in federal court for ethics violations in the past...
Lawyer Slapped With $10K in Sanctions for 'Laundry List of Unethical Actions'
Shannon P. Duffy
The Legal Intelligencer
July 25, 2005
Finding that a Pennsylvania lawyer had committed a "laundry list of unethical actions," a federal judge has imposed more than $10,000 in sanctions and ordered the lawyer to complete six hours of ethics training.
U.S. District Judge J. Curtis Joyner's 10-page opinion in Holsworth v. Berg is packed with criticism of the conduct of attorney Philip Berg of Lafayette Hill, Pa.
"Other attorneys should look to Mr. Berg's actions as a blueprint for what not to do when attempting to effectively and honorably perform the duties of the legal profession," Joyner wrote.
"This court has grown weary of Mr. Berg's continuous and brazen disrespect toward this court and his own clients. Mr. Berg's actions ... are an enormous waste of judicial time and resources that this court cannot, in good conscience, allow to go unpunished," Joyner wrote.
In the suit, Berg is accused of legal malpractice by former clients who claim his failure to respond to an ERISA claim against them led to a default judgment.
But the sanctions against Berg stem from his decision to file a third-party counterclaim of fraud against a pension fund that had sued his former clients, according to court papers.
Joyner blasted Berg for filing the fraud claim, calling it an "irresponsible decision" because the claim was "utterly barren of any scintilla of legal principles."
In the ERISA suit, Berg's former clients -- Richard Holsworth and his company, Richard's General Contracting -- were sued by a group of pension funds led by the Carpenters Health and Welfare Fund of Philadelphia and Vicinity.
Carpenters Health claimed that Holsworth and his company had failed to make required payment of fringe benefit contributions.
According to court papers, Joyner found that Berg "neglected to file a response to [Carpenter Health's] claim or provide any legal defense whatsoever for his client."
Even after a default judgment was entered against Holsworth, Joyner found that Berg "remained silent."In April 2002 -- two months after the default judgment was granted and 11 months after the suit was first filed -- Joyner found that Berg "broke his silence" by filing a petition to strike the judgment or to open the default judgment.
Berg's motion was rejected and a default judgment of more than $5,300 was entered against his clients.The judgment swelled to more than $10,000 when Carpenters Health later successfully moved for a supplemental judgment to recover more than $4,700 in attorney fees for its efforts in responding to Berg's untimely motions.
Holsworth and his wife later filed a legal malpractice suit against Berg in the Philadelphia County Court of Common Pleas, alleging that Berg negligently failed to represent them in the Carpenters Health case.
A year later, in February 2005, Berg moved to join Carpenters Health as a third-party defendant in the malpractice suit, demanding more than $20,000 in damages.
In his counterclaim, Berg alleged that the ERISA suit filed by Carpenters Health in 2001, which led to the malpractice claim against him, was "a fraud upon the court and a fraudulent taking from the Holsworths."
Carpenter Health's lawyers removed the case to federal court and filed a motion to dismiss the claim.Joyner agreed, finding that Berg's fraud claim was "frivolous" and was motivated by an intent "to harass Carpenters Health and the Holsworths, as well as to delay and disrupt the administration of justice."
The claim was fatally flawed, Joyner found, because Berg had no standing to bring suit against Carpenters Health and had "failed to conduct even a minimally reasonable inquiry before filing his complaint."
Granting summary judgment in favor of Carpenters Health, Joyner said he found it "wholly unnecessary" even to consider the facts of the ERISA case because it was "abundantly clear" that Carpenters Health was entitled to a judgment as a matter of law.
Joyner invited Carpenters Health to file a motion for Rule 11 sanctions. When it did, Joyner found that Berg "continued his trend of unprofessional conduct by, once again, failing to file a timely response."
In a footnote, Joyner said Berg's response to the sanctions motion was due on May 26. In a phone call to chambers on May 31, Joyner said, Berg's assistant requested permission to move for an extension of time, saying Berg had been out of town for two or three weeks and would not be returning until June 9.
Joyner said he agreed to accept such a request if it were filed the next day, but none was.
Instead, Joyner said, a letter signed by Berg's assistant was faxed to chambers on June 2, requesting that the deadline be extended until June 27.
Joyner said he refused because "in light of Mr. Berg's persistent and repeated neglect of his professional obligations, this court was not inclined to permit Mr. Berg to further delay the review of Carpenters Health's ripe motion."
In a June 2 opinion, Joyner found that Berg had violated Rule 11 by "filing a complaint completely devoid of any basis in fact or law, as would be apparent to any reasonable attorney after the slightest inquiry."
Berg's fraud claim, Joyner said, was "inadequately pled, not grounded in fact, time-barred, and utterly irrelevant to the pending malpractice action against him."
In his sanctions order, Joyner ordered Berg to reimburse Carpenters Health the $10,668 in attorney fees and costs it incurred in defending the claim. He also ordered Berg to complete six credits of ethics courses certified by the Pennsylvania Board of Continuing Legal Education, and recommended that Berg be investigated by the Pennsylvania Bar Association's Committee on Legal Ethics and Professional Responsibility.
On June 16, Berg filed a motion for reconsideration urging that the sanctions imposed on him should be forgiven due to "extenuating circumstances," including health problems, a three-week European business trip and financial difficulties.
Berg conceded in his brief that "there were numerous procedural errors, untimely responses and omissions," but said he "did not do so with intention or defiance."
Joyner flatly rejected the motion, saying "in no way, shape or form do the 'extenuating circumstances' proffered by Mr. Berg even begin to justify, excuse, or explain his unprofessional and unethical course of conduct throughout this matter. These transparent excuses are not only patently insufficient to meet the legal standard for a motion for reconsideration, they are insulting to this court and demeaning to the legal profession."
Berg, reached in his office, declined to comment on Joyner's decision except to say that he is considering whether to file an appeal.
Carpenters Health was represented by attorneys Sanford G. Rosenthal and Eric B. Meyer of Jennings Sigmond.
Oh yeah, the reason this isn't being covered in the mainstream media is because they get in trouble when they report LIES!!!!
Sue B., do you read (or think at all) about claptrap like this that you are posting?
This myterious "indonesian connection" is part of the same crock of strageness to make under-educated yokels think thre is something odd about Obama.
It makes the errors in the details even more laughable.
Adoption cannot change citizenship. Look it up, for once.
Obana is a very poor candidate. He has no experience and no new ideas for solving our problems.
Now let's talk about the real issues. Don, your nonsense posts will get votes for Obama and the last thing America needs is to have Obama for a president.
http://www.americasright.com/2008/09/berg-v-obama-update-tuesday-september-9.html
Berg is a former Pennsylvania Deputy Attorney General.
He has lodged a Temporary Restraining Order against Obama in court and has sued the Federal Election Office and the D.N.C. This is my understanding. He claims that Barack Hussein Obama was first named Barry Sotaro and was actually born in Kenya, therefore, disallowing him to even be a candidate for President of the United States. He moved from Hawaii, to Indonesia and Kenya and some think he might have been born in Canada. His birth certificate must be investigated before election day.
I asked Philip J. Berg if he can take his paper work to the Supreme Court of the United States or must he go through the lower courts first?
Please, flood your concerns to his FAX to: 1-610-834-7659 if you think it is important that Obama is a true American citizen.
ACORN, citizenship, and the evil trifecta of Ayers, Farakkhan, and Wright. A good reason to sort through the other possible Democratic candidates.
