First, let me ask you this:
Why is the issue of Barack Obama’s birth certificate and U.S. citizenship as a prerequisite for Presidential eligibility still worth our time? Aren’t there more important issues to address?
Next, what do you know about Obama’s place of birth and the factors that determine if he is, indeed, a U.S. citizen?
Tonight on my radio program …
THE BIRTHER ISSUE REBORN
Court Hearings Scheduled for Obama Eligibility Challenges

Thanks, in large part, to the 2012-cadidate publicity swirling around real estate celebrity Donald Trump, the doubts about Barack Obama’s past and the legitimacy of his U.S. citizenship have caught a second wind in the media.
However, working beneath all the renewed chatter and accusations regarding Trump’s political motivations are individuals like attorney Gary Kreep, president of the United States Justice Foundation (USJF), who has been very methodically building a serious case to challenge Obama’s eligibility to be President.
As a result, unlike much of the hype about the issue, Kreep’s work has been moving well beyond the speculation and into the federal courts.
On May 2nd, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals will hear oral arguments in Drake v. Obama, a case Kreep has been building in a formal challenge of Barack Obama’s eligibility to serve as President. No other eligibility case has been granted oral argument by any federal appellate court.
According to Kreep, whichever side loses the case will certainly file an appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court.
Meanwhile, in a separate case, later this month, Kreep will also be filing the USJF’s petition to the U.S. Supreme Court in Keyes v. Bowen, another eligibility related case, on appeal from the California State Supreme Court.
So, why is Kreep relentlessly dedicated to this issue, particularly when so many in the media have been marginalizing people like him as conspiracy theorists under the “birther” label?
“Look, if they want to call us birthers, that’s fine,” says Kreep. “But I consider myself a constitutionalist. I believe the United States Constitution needs to be upheld and is worth fighting for, which is why I’ve spent the better part of the last two years working this case. And 60 percent of Americans have expressed questions about Obama’s eligibility. It’s simple. If we respect and cherish our form of government, this is not something we should ignore.”
Tonight we’ll find out more about the case that has been climbing up through the federal courts in California. What is the case, formally, and what is the legal process in motion right now?
And we’ll learn about the Drake v. Obama case going before the notoriously liberal 9th Circuit. What is transpiring there?
