Berg v. Obama, is he a US Citizen?

There is a lawsuit filed in a Pennsylvania court by an attorney who is footing the bill for the suit from his pocket and donations. Philip J. Berg, the attorney who filed suit against Mr. Obama, challenged him to produce his original birth certificate to prove he meets the constitutional requirements to serve as U.S. president.

 

There are many ways to learn of it. A simple Google of Berg v Obama will abound with results from around the internet.

 

The case number is No.08-cv-04083.

 

There are several arguments that are compelling. Equally compelling is the ease which Mr. Obama can put an end to this speculation regarding his true citizenship.

 

All the suit requests for dismissal is for Mr. Obama to provide the following documents in a timely fashion (before the election takes place):

 

"A Genuine certified copy of his original long version "vault" birth certificate

 

A Certificate of Citizenship

 

A Certified copy of his Oath of Allegiance 1"

 

These three documents will end this case and once and for all put to rest claims of citizenship against Mr. Obama.

 

Instead of readily providing these documents, Mr. Obama and the Democratic National Committee (DNC) have instead tried to squash the case, requested dismissal, and not addressed the claims. Mr. Obama put an electronic photo of a birth certification on his "Fight the Smears" Web site, a document that his critics have found unconvincing. The raised seal and authoritative signature needed to validate the document cannot be seen on the scan. The Obama campaign was unwilling to release the original document to the court when Mr. Berg filed suit in August, choosing instead to argue against Mr. Berg's standing. Notwithstanding that the font used in the document didn't exist when he was born.

 

If Mr. Obama wants to prove that his presidency won't be more of the "same old politics" why not complete this?

 

The only logical answer is possibly the claims made in this lawsuit may have substance to them?

 

Did he travel on an Indonesian passport in 1981? If so, he is not a native citizen and is instead, at best, a naturalized citizen. He is unable to seek the office of president.

 

Was he born in Hawaii, which no hospital appears to have a record of, or was he born in Kenya as his family there claims and which may be substantiated by birth records of a Kenyan hospital? The Governor of Hawaii has suppressed all files in regards to Mr. Obama.

 

Did he register to attend college as a Kenyan citizen? Why has he refused to provide these records if he is legal in this country and legally eligible to run for the office of president?

 

Again, could it be that the charges may be true?

 

Mr. Berg remarked today, "I look forward to receiving Defendant Obama's response to the Writ and am hopeful the U. S. Supreme Court will review Berg v. Obama. I believe Mr. Obama is not a constitutionally-qualified natural-born citizen and is ineligible to assume the office of President of the United States."
