Philip J. Berg

A prominent Pennsylvania Democrat has sued Sen. Barack Obama, the Democratic National Committee and the Federal Election Commission,


Philip J. Berg, a former member of Pennsylvania's Democratic State Committee and former deputy attorney general of Pennsylvania, filed the lawsuit this week in U.S District Court, asking the court to declare Obama ineligible for the presidency and to prevent him from running for the position.

However, a WND investigation has found that at least part of Berg's lawsuit relies on discredited claims.

A separate motion was also filed seeking a temporary restraining order on Obama's presidential campaign until Obama's eligibility can be verified.

The lawsuit claims Barack Obama's eligibility is questionable on several grounds, including the allegation that he was born in Kenya to parents unable to automatically grant him American citizenship, that his Hawaii birth certificate is a forgery â?? a now discredited claim â?? that he was made a citizen of Indonesia as a child and that he retained foreign citizenship into adulthood without recording an oath of allegiance to regain any theoretical American citizenship.

In short, the suit claims Obama was not born an American citizen; lost any hypothetical American citizenship he had as a child (Editor's note: This point is not supported by U.S. citizenship law); may not now be an American citizen and even if he is, may hold dual citizenships with other countries. If any, much less all, of these allegations are true, the suit claims, Obama cannot constitutionally serve as president.

Why would a Democrat do this to his party's own candidate? And why right before the National Convention?

We have to wait till Thursday.....Then it will be ripe.

School record that lists "Barry Soetoro," a.k.a. Barack Obama, as Indonesian citizen (AP photo)


He is toast.......

The lawsuit then claims an investigation has shown that in 1981, "Obama traveled to Pakistan using his Indonesian passport. At the time of travels to Indonesia, Obama was 20 years old. He was well aware he maintained his Indonesia citizenship, and failed to regain his United States citizenship. â?¦ Even if Obama maintained his United States Citizenship, which he failed to do, he also carries citizenships in Kenya and Indonesia. Obama has divided loyalties with foreign countries. Thus, Obama carries multiple citizenships and is ineligible to run for President of the United States."

This is By far the biggest story of the week

He will be sued Thursday, and not be able to Run. with any luck...:thumbsup:

While I'll probably be among the first in line to knock around Barry on his position of the week on any given stance I'm not so sure I'd be quick to jump on this boat.

If he does indeed hold multiple citizenships he should be pulled from the presidential race immediatley. However let's not count our chickens before they hatch.

In either case I'm not concerned. With the shift in momentum swaying away from Obama and moving to a more neutral position I think McCain will walk away with this one. I don't anticipate a landslide, but I don't see Obama winning either.

Here's to hoping :hippy:
