In this case, a long-form birth cert (filled in at the hospital) usually with a footprint on the back.

According to his Writ of Cert, Berg included one as "Exhibit 3" in his case.

We can only hope. Although if it happens, I'm pretty sure I'll go camping in a remote area of Texas for a while, armed to the teeth.

Kenyan Ambassador Confirms Obama Born There
Go to about 12:15 into this radio interview. The interviewer asks the ambassador nonchalantly if they are going to build a marker on the spot in Kenya in where President Elect Obama was born. He answers that they might, but that the spot is well known in Kenya and is already a tourist attraction! ...[cont.]

Re: More on the Obama citizenship thing UPDATE on SCOTUS

SCOTUS will not hear the Obama citizenship case.

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20081208/ap_ ... otus_obama

My take is that there is enough shadow in this issue to raise a tiny concern and this seems to demonstrate that a constitutional system for verifying citizenship doesn't seem to exist.

The irony is that it seems you and I have to provide more documentation to buy a gun than a presidential candidate has to provide to own the keys to the nuclear arsenal!

That does seem rather odd.

They don't want to touch this hot potato. I know what I'd do if I was on the bench, but then again, I don't really care if I offend 66 million IDIOTS by telling them they're too stupid to be voting in the first place.
