The Obama DNC camp waited until the deadline date required by the court to produce evidence that Obama is a natural born citizen they did not.

Instead, they filed for a dismissal of the case.

Obama is a man that has something to hide here.

Hillary would be far less ominous than this Obama Nazi, although it may be contitutionaly too late for the Dems to offer a replacement. This means McCain would run unopposed.

Actually, all they would have been required to file at that time is an Answer. In that they either admit or deny the allegations made in Berg's Complaint. Obama would not have been required to produce anything at that point. That would come through the Discovery phase.

So very true. Berg has a good resume but a bit of a nut cases history. It is very hard to read him. But I think he was very clear in stating that all Obama had to do was produce the documents requested and he would happily dismiss the suit.

Not only did Obama not produce these documents...We have seen hide nor hair of a:

Full medical report\

His grades at any school

His IL application for the Bar

His client lists for the brief time he practiced law

Nor much of anything else. He simply refers us back to his flipping books. I should be so lucky as to apply for a job and tell the employer to STFU when they want documents for verification of my statements.

Stringing out what a party considers a nuisance lawsuit is common practice. The complaint is filed. Shortly before the deadline, the defending party asks for, and generally receives, an extension to answer. The “answer” usually is a motion to dismiss based on some perceived defect such as standing, forum non conveniens, statute of limitations, inadequate pleading. The motion is answered and a hearing is scheduled a month or two down the line. If the motion is dismissed, the defendant is given another 30 days or so to answer.

So it is very easy to string this out until past the election. If Obama wins the election, the lawsuit might be able to proceed but if it is successful, it just results in a Biden presidency. If Obama loses, the lawsuit is rendered moot and any challenge to his bona fides as a U.S. citizen would probably have to be brought in Illinois. The Obama campaign gains nothing by taking this lawsuit seriously beyond procedural challenges.

So it would seem.
