Supremes asked to halt Tuesday's vote
Constitutional crisis feared over Obama's 'qualifications'
 
The U.S. Supreme Court is being asked to help the nation avoid a 
constitutional crisis by halting Tuesday's election until Democratic 
presidential nominee Barack Obama documents his eligibility to run for the 
top office in the nation.

Democratic attorney Philip Berg had filed a lawsuit alleging Obama is 
ineligible to be president because of possible birth in Kenya, but as WND 
reported, a federal judge dismissed the complaint claiming Berg lacks 
standing to bring the action.

The 34-page memorandum that accompanied the court order from Judge R. 
Barclay Surrick concluded ordinary citizens can't sue to ensure that a 
presidential candidate actually meets the constitutional requirements of 
the office.

Instead, Surrick said Congress could determine "that citizens, voters, or 
party members should police the Constitution's eligibility requirements 
for the Presidency," but that it would take new laws to grant individual 
citizens that ability.

"Until that time," Surrick says, "voters do not have standing to bring the 
sort of challenge that Plaintiff attempts to bring."

Berg has maintained that uncertainty about how the U.S. does enforce the 
requirements of presidency may result in a constitutional crisis should an 
ineligible candidate win the office.

In a statement today, Berg said he is applying to Justice David Souter for 
an "Immediate Injunction to Stay the Presidential Election of November 4, 
2008."

"I am hopeful that the U.S. Supreme Court will grant the injunction 
pending a review of this case to avoid a constitutional crisis by 
insisting that Obama produce certified documentation that he is or is not 
a "natural born" citizen and if he cannot produce documentation that Obama 
be removed from the ballot for president," Berg said.

"We must legally prevent Obama, the unqualified candidate, from taking the 
office of the presidency of the United States," Berg said.

The issue of Obama's eligibility first got traction among Internet 
bloggers and later was heightened when several campaigns were launched to 
determine whether a "certificate of live birth" posted on the Internet by 
the Obama campaign was valid.

The issue gained more attention when Berg told radio talk show icon 
Michael Savage he had an admission from Obama's grandmather that she was 
at his birth – in Kenya.

"This is a question of who has standing to stand up for our Constitution," 
Berg told Jeff Schreiber of America's Right blog. "If I don't have 
standing, if you don't have standing, if your neighbor doesn't have 
standing to ask whether or not the likely next president of the United 
States – the most powerful man in the entire world – is eligible to be in 
that office in the first place, then who does?"

As WND reported, Berg filed suit in U.S. District Court in August, 
alleging Obama is not a natural-born citizen and is thus ineligible to 
serve as president of the United States. Berg demanded that Obama provide 
documentation to the court to verify that the candidate was born in 
Hawaii, as Obama contends, and not in Kenya, as Berg believes.
