Barack Obama - and the eligibility issue
If you believe in this issue, you get labeled a "birther".

Bob Unruh has been following the Obama eligibility issue for quite some time. This comes from his latest posting at WND.com:
"An appeals court has indicated it is listening to arguments in a case that challenges Barack Obama's occupancy in the Oval Office with a ruling that gives special permission for an extra-long document to be filed in the case.
WND has reported on the case brought by attorney Mario Apuzzo in January 2009 on behalf of Charles F. Kerchner Jr., Lowell T. Patterson, Darrell James Lenormand and Donald H. Nelson Jr.
Named as defendants were Barack Hussein Obama II, the U.S., Congress, the Senate, House of Representatives, former Vice President Dick Cheney and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
The case alleges Congress failed to follow the Constitution, which 'provides that Congress must fully qualify the candidate 'elected' by the Electoral College Electors.'
The complaint also asserts 'when Obama was born his father was a British subject/citizen and Obama himself was the same.' The case contends the framers of the U.S. Constitution, when they adopted the requirement that a president be a 'natural born citizen,' excluded dual citizens."
