Birth Certificate Petition at RallyCongress.com

Rally Congress.com has a petition demanding release of Barack Obama's birth documentation. The petition is located here. The petition reads:

>Article II, Section 1 of the U.S. Constitution reads: "No Person except a natural born citizen, or a citizen of the United States at the time of the adoption of this constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any person be eligible to that office who shall not have attained to the age of thirty five years, and been fourteen years a resident within the United States."

>There are numerous questions as to Obama's citizen status raising suspicion and doubt about Obama constitutional qualification to be president. To settle these questions Mr. Obama must produce proof of citizenship!

>Documents that must be produced include;
(a) a certified copy of "vault" (original long version) birth certificate;
(b) certified copies of all reissued and sealed birth certificates in the names Barack Hussein Obama, Barry Soetoro, Barry Obama, Barack Dunham and Barry Dunham;
(c) a certified copy Certification of Citizenship;
(d) a certified copy Oath of Allegiance taken upon age of maturity;
(e) certified copies of admission forms for Occidental College, Columbia University and Harvard Law School; and
(f) certified copies of any court orders or legal documents changing his name from Barry Soetoro.

>It is reasonable that these documents should be produced considering that his father is Kenyan, his adoptive father is Indonesian, and his grandmother claims to have been present at his birth in Kenya. If he is a natural born citizen then producing these documents should not be any problem.

>These allegations will not go away until Mr. Obama produces proof to federal authorities and the public. If he will not do so voluntarily he must be compelled by every means available. You, as an employee of The People, have sworn an oath to support and defend the Constitution.

>We The People are demanding you to make every effort, both public and private, to resolve this fundamental Constitutional question before 20 January.

Dear SMRStrauss: Thank you for your thoughtful comment (as was the last comment or two that you have made--I appreciate your thoughtfulness). I do not doubt that the birth certificate issue may be the result of intentional manipulation by the Obama camp. When I first got involved with this I premised everything I said and wrote with the idea that the entire issue might be a ploy to get his opponents into a trap. However, there still may be something interesting underneath this, namely, the identity of his father who may be on the vault copy of the certificate. At this point a judge has reviewed the Hawaiian birth certificate so there is little support for the claim that he was born in Kenya.

As well, you need to remember that manipulation works both ways. Rumors like this can be fertile grounds for better findings. Getting a lot of people excited about this so late in the game can hardly be the outcome for which the Obama camp hoped.

Given the news media's eagerness to embrace the man, this much agitation, even if misguided, energizes people. Down the road there will be plenty of grounds for complaint about the Democrats, and if I'm wrong you can kick me twice.

The most important question facing the nation is monetary policy. It is one about which academics and the "mass media" (I prefer the phrase pissant propagandists) engage in systematic lying, fraud and deception, and have since day one. This includes academics who study the issue as well as newspapers and television. The television stations do not discuss it, or they lie outright about for instance, the role of monetary policy in wealth transfer and in inducing recessions. Even people like William Greider, who wrote a lengthy book about the subject, are utterly deceived by the endless lying about monetary policy. The public is utterly bamboozled about the subject, and policy is based on utter chicanery.

That said, what harm is there in a few rumors about Obama's birth certificate? Moreover, such rumors energize those most likely to protest. Even if the rumors are refuted (and they may not be entirely vis-a-vis the identity of Obama's father) I do not think Obama likes to have thousands of people buzzing about what a liar he is, even if the specifics are confused a bit.

Mr. Langbert: Which judge is it that supposedly reviewed his birth certificate?

It is important enough of an issue that the Supreme Court is planning a Dec. 5 "conference" to discuss the Donofrio suit.
