The only thing this Berg seem good at is hating on Obama... He continues with these frivolous law suits challenging Obama citizenship. Although when he goes to Court, and it gets dismissed and he continues on with his bogus crimes of filing false lawsuits! To make matters worse, he even as the nerve to ask for donation... What a sham! I have listened to this crock pot make his claims and allegations based simply on what he thinks... The ideal of truth needs to take place at some point, right? He wants to look at the mans birth certificate, his college grades, his pass port. Now what does all this have to do with the price of tea in china? Mr Bergs notion is because Obama will not provide his information that he must not be a citizen??? Lets look at it like this, maybe when he was born, if family knew that he was going to be the man... So they developed this conspiracy theory to protect Obama. So after 45 plus years they have concealed his information just so that he could become president? Corny, yea... So why can this Berg not get how silly his allegations sound... I have said enough, you read and listen and tell me what you think. Obama appeals to Supreme Court

Update October 26th, 2008: Philip Berg has appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn the ruling against his lawsuit. The case is Berg v. Obama, No. 08-cv-04083
“I am totally disappointed by Judge Surrick’s decision and, for all citizens of the United States, I am immediately appealing to the U.S. Supreme Court. This is a question of who has standing to uphold our Constitution. If I don’t have standing, if you don’t have standing, if your neighbor doesn’t have standing to question the eligibility of an individual to be President of the United States - the Commander-in-Chief, the most powerful person in the world - then who does? So, anyone can just claim to be eligible for congress or the presidency without having their legal status, age or citizenship questioned. According to Judge Surrick, we the people have no right to police the eligibility requirements under the U.S. Constitution.”
Update October 24th, 2008: A federal judge in Philadelphia last night threw out a complaint by a Montgomery County lawyer who claimed that Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama was not qualified to be president and that his name should be removed from the Nov. 4 ballot.

The Philadelphia Times-Herald reports here of a motion to dismiss the lawsuit of Philip Berg against Barack Obama on September 26th, 2008. [Note: The Times-Herald link is no longer active.] The text of the Philip Berg’s rejection of the move to dismiss is dated September 29th, 2008. The entire case history is here.[New filings are posted weekly. Read the latest entry by scrolling down.]
The lawsuit alleges that Barack Obama was in fact born in Kenya and thus ineligible to be president. Berg’s latest order demands Obama’s “vault” version ( certified copy of his “original” long version ) Birth Certificate; and a certified copy of Obama’s Certification of Citizenship; a certified copy of Obama’s Oath of Allegiance.
Posted on Barack Obama’s website Fight The Smears is his Hawai’ian birth certificate and this statement:
“When Barack Obama Jr. was born on Aug. 4,1961, in Honolulu, Kenya was a British colony, still part of the United Kingdom’s dwindling empire. As a Kenyan native, Barack Obama Sr. was a British subject whose citizenship status was governed by The British Nationality Act of 1948. That same act governed the status of Obama Sr.‘s children.Since Sen. Obama has neither renounced his U.S. citizenship nor sworn an oath of allegiance to Kenya, his Kenyan citizenship automatically expired on Aug. 4,1982.”
A broader issue however is that even though Barack was certainly born in Hawai’i when Obama was possibly adopted by Lolo Soetoro around age six that meant that Barack’s name was changed to Barry Soetoro and he may have become an Indonesian citizen as a child. This also means that the birth certificate posted on Fight The Smears would have been sealed per adoption laws in Hawai’i and a new record created listing Lolo Soetoro as the father. This documentation has never been shown. As with Kenya, Indonesia did not allow dual-citizenship at that time.
The Constitution of the United States of AmericaArticle IISection 1.[Paragraph 5:] 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.
