Barack Obama's "Fight The Smears" website has now taken down and removed the "proof" of his Certificate of Birth that was supposedly from Honolulu, Hawaii.
Why?
Perhaps it is because when people started asking questions on the left and not just on the right the story took on a life of its own. Now with the lawsuit filed by Philip J. Berg in Pennsylvania the campaign has no choice but to come up with clear evidentiary proof of his Jus Sanguinis "Right of blood" that proves once and for all that Barack Obama is a US Citizen.
At issue is whether or not his mother Ann Dunham gave birth to Obama in the US in Hawaii, or whether or not his mother had him in Indonesia, Kenya or on some island off the Canadian coastline near Seattle and if so, did she file the required paperwork with the nearest US consulates office to certify him as her son and as a US citizen as required by law.
As I said on my last Blog and on the radio program the stories that abound about his birth and even Obama himself does not provide clear answers about it in his book. Each side of his family provide a different version of the story as well.
Regardless, whether the rumors that exist are true or not, because of the lawsuit filed yesterday, his campaign now has no choice but to resolve the issue before is destroys his candidacy.
Just as curious is the exact reason why they would remove a document that they have had on his "Fight the Smears" website for months.
Stay tuned... this story seems to have legs and it might just be the ace in the hole Hillar clinton was waiting for and why she only suspended her campaign and didn't fold her tent completely.
