obamathedevil on citizenship: The debate rages on about President Obama’s US citizenship. It is a story that can’t be found in the main stream media, however – it is the most under reported major news story of our time. The bottom line thus far – Obama’s records are sealed and his lawyers refuse to produce them, even as the number of lawsuits filed, requesting such information, continues to grow. Below is a brief timeline concerning this battle for the truth: Alan Keyes has been in the spotlight lately, being part of at least one action to challenge Mr. Obama’s claim to citizenship. Mr. Keyes is an American conservative political activist, author, and former diplomat, and has run in numerous senatorial and presidential campaigns. Regarding the sanctions sought by Obama’s attorneys, Mr. Keyes wrote, “It confirms the common sense suspicion that he won't act forthrightly in this matter because he has something to hide.” On the courts not hearing citizenship challenges, he wrote, “In effect, the courts are refusing to admit plaintiffs on this matter into the courtroom, thereby denying them justice. Madison wrote, 'Justice is the end of government. It is the end of civil society. It will be pursued either until it be obtained or until liberty be lost in the pursuit.'" “The denial of justice is thus a despotic act that violates the basis not only of just government, but of civil society itself," Keyes wrote. "Given the Constitutional requirement, the only fact citizens need to justify their suit is the fact that Obama ran for president. He asked to be chosen, and therefore must answer the eligibility question," Keyes wrote, In a recent interview, Keyes asked the reporter, “"Is he president of the United States? According to the Constitution, in order to be eligible for president you have to be a natural born citizen. He has refused to provide proof." He went on to say, "I'm not sure he's even president of the United States . . . neither are many of our military people now who are now going to court to ask the question, 'Do we have to obey a man who is not qualified under the constitution?' We are in the midst of the greatest crisis this nation has ever seen, and if we don't stop laughing about it and deal with it, we're going to find ourselves in the midst of chaos, confusion and civil war." We at obamathedevil.com agree with Mr. Keyes and feel that the Supreme Court has done the citizens of the US a disservice thus far. The good news is that lawsuits keep popping up and the issue of Obama’s citizenship will not die. Americans want the truth about this man, and, hopefully, soon they’ll have it. 243,000 have already signed the petition for release of Obama’s records on WND (if you haven’t yet, please do so!)

12/11 COMMENTARY
The image above is not truly Barack Obama’s birth certificate. But, then again, it looks like the other one on the internet isn’t authentic, either. One simply may not exist.
The certificate being passed off as real can be found on the FACTCHECK website. It perhaps looks a little bit more genuine than ours, but:
If a valid source had an authentic document, wouldn’t they use current scanner technology to present an unquestionably clear document – as was done above?
