All of the Cases Dealing with Obama’s Birth Certificate Issue
The purpose of this blog is to expose Barack Obama’s rhetoric; however, since holding his press conference last Friday, Mr. Obama hasn’t said anything, so I can’t take up my cause until he speaks again. In the meantime, I know that many of you are following Mr. Obama’s birth certificate (or certification of live birth) issue surrounding the Constitutionality of his election to President of the United States. I thought it might be useful to list all of the websites here, so you have an easy reference point to get information.
Let’s first just summarize the pending cases regarding this issue. Philip J. Berg was the first to file such action in federal court in Philadelphia, PA. Immediately, thereafter, Jeff Schreiber began documenting Berg’s case attempting to give a well rounded view of the issue. Jeff has been a sound speaker on this issue and has done a great job of trying to keep everyone abreast of Berg’s case and the overall issues surrounding the case. I will list Jeff’s site here as well as a place to get a wealth of information on the topic.
Next, a suit was filed in Washington state against the Secretary of State’s office asking for the birth certificate to be produced. Then, Andy Martin, went to Hawaii, the only place he felt a suit could truly be filed and won regarding the birth certificate issue. Since then others have filed including the intent by Patriot Brigade Talk Radio’s to file a suit as well.
Notably, Leo Donofrio and Cort Wrotnowski have filed suits that don’t rely on Obama being born outside of the United States. They contend that because Barack Obama’s father was not a U.S. Citizen and was a British Subject, Barack Obama was British Subject at the time of is birth and is not a natural born citizen. On Leo Donofrio’s Weblog, http://naturalborncitizen.wordpress.com he miticulously discusses his arguments as to Barack Obama’s lack of Natural Born Citizenship status.

He's Not My President? 
This is a very good venue to tackle Obama’s empty but risky rhetoric. Thanks! I suggest you also include the analysis on obama’s use of hypnosis in his speeches. The use of NLP (neurolinguistic programming) to put his audience in a trance-like situation and therefore absorb and “accept” everything “hook, line, and sinker..” Obama, I should say, is one of the most unethical public speakers I’ve ever known. He might even surpass Hitler…

Thanks Rose. I have read the entire PDF document on Obama’s use of conversational hypnosis. I may tackle this subject on my site some day; thanks for the suggestion. My own initial opinion is that conversational hypnosis is ineffective on intelligent people. His hypnotic type rhetoric is easily understood as empty rhetoric for those truly listening.

Obama may be ineligible to be President. Read on:
Nov 10, 2008 2 NEW CASES AGAINST OBAMA. This Donofrio v Wells in U.S. Supreme Court may be stronger than Berg v Obama.
1) Obama Presidency Challenged By New Jersey Voter re:”natural born citizen” – Donofrio v Wells Before US Supreme Court
Obama presidency challenged by New Jersey voter re: “natural born citizen” now before US Supreme Court. Standing not an issue-Birth Certificate not main point of suit. Action was originally filed against both Obama and McCain alleging ineligibility.
Nov 10, 2008 – On October 27, 2008, plaintiff-appellant, Leo Donofrio, a retired attorney acting Pro Se, sued Nina Mitchell Wells, Secretary of State of the State of New Jersey, in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Appellate Division, demanding the Secretary execute her statutory and Constitutional duties to police the security of ballots in New Jersey from fraudulent candidates ineligible to hold the office of President of the United States due to their not being “natural born citizens” as enumerated in Article 1, Section 2, of the US Constitution.

Nov 11,08 UPDATE: Later today, I will release my letter to Justice Thomas as a sworn certification detailing the various unorthodox judicial activity my case has suffered. The case is officially named, “Leo C. Donofrio v. Nina Mitchell Wells, Secretary of State of the State of New Jersey”.

============
2) Another case: this one against Obama’s Mother by Forensic Psychologist who works for Criminal Justice System and the Courts Accuses Obama’s Mother of Fraud on Obama Birth Docs in Hawaii. Dr. T.B. Bradley, Psy. D. Forensic Psychologist who works for the Criminal Justice System and the Courts, accuses Obama’s Mother of Fraud on Obama Birth Docs in Hawaii. “Obama’s Mother engaged in a pattern of illegal and fraudulent conduct as a result of both of her two children’s birth outside of the United States: (1) Obama, Jr. born in Kenya Africa and (2) Maya Soetoro born in Jakarta Indonesia, but the mother, a US Citizen, raced to Hawaii after each of her children’s birth where she engaged in fraudulent conduct upon the United States by declaring a late registration birth for both children claiming that they were born in Hawaii.

This is for REAL. The election is NOT OVER. IF Obama is ineligible because he is not a natural born U.S. citizen then the Supreme Court could decide who will be President OR the Electoral College could reject Obama as a growing list of potential electors are joining a lawsuit demanding proof of birth. Instead of talking let’s do something.
Take action here: http://peoplespassions.org/index.html
It’s EASY. Just click and send emails to Reps. then send letters/emails to Electors asking them to defend the U.S. Constitution and demand Obama provide birth certificate or step down from Presidency. Every email and letter counts! Please help.

PRESIDENT-ELECT OBAMA: PLEASE RELEASE YOUR BIRTH RECORDS
Iknow you are busy setting up your new administration as the President elect of the greatest country in the world, but there are a couple of things about your background and qualifications for the office that concern me and many of my fellow Americans. Never before has a Presidential candidate failed to fully disclose routine information about their background.
It seems that many records concerning your background have either been sealed or are temporarily unavailable for review. I know that any honest person like yourself, who is about to assume the highest office in the land, would never overtly want to keep such information from public review.
Here’s a partial list:
1. College records from Occidental College, Columbia University and Harvard — Not available and secured by college administrators.
2. Columbia Thesis paper — not available, secured by college administrators
3. Certified Copy of original Birth certificate – Not released (sealed?)
4. Certified Copy of Certification of Live Birth — Not released (sealed?)
I believe items #3 and 4 are the most critical and they concern two issues that are very important to the American people:
1. Are Are you a Natural Born Citizen of the U.S.? and
2. Are you legally qualified to hold the Office of President?
There have been several lawsuits filed with various state Boards of Elections, including one that has made it to the US Supreme Court, claiming you are ineligible to be on their ballots because you have not produced proof that you are a natural born citizen of the United States.
As you may recall, there was a Cetificate of Live Birth (COLB) for you posted on your campaign website in the past that was reported as an original, but which was later found to be only an abstract of a computer record having no connection to the original 1961 COLB document. The abstract copy was later taken down.
In an election of a President, where being a “Natural Born Citizen” is a requirement for the position, I believe that the American people have a right to know if you are a natural born citizen.
What does the actual original document say about the birth? What hospital were you born in? Who was the attending physician? What was the date and time? What names are listed on the COLB? I think the question of your birth is a very important constitutional issue and the issue should be publicly put to rest one way or the other.
Mr Obama, it seems that you are creating needless confusion when you could easily avoid all of this doubt simply by asking for release of your original 1961 document and let it be examined. Why haven’t you done this? and why have you fought against every attempt to produce the document?
Mr. Obama, if you are truly and honorable man and a “Natural Born Citizen of the United States” you can clear up this issue very quickly. Just sign a release to have the full document examined and made available for public scrutiny.
Your continued avoidance of the issue and your subsequent failure to provide proof that you are a “Natural Born Citizen of the United States” is very suspicious and raises a very important constitutional issue that must be addressed before you take office. I am asking you to stop using legal technicalities, record sealing and courtroom maneuvers to avoid the issue. The American people have every constitutional right to know whether or not you are a “Natural Born Citizen” and they will eventually find out.
Let’s put this issue to rest once and for all so you can get on with the American people’s business.
