The Pennsylvania Democrat who has sued Sen. Barack Obama demanding he prove his American citizenship – and therefore qualification to run for president – has confirmed he has a recording of a telephone call from the senator's paternal grandmother confirming his birth in Kenya.
The issue of Obama's birthplace, which he states is Honolulu in 1961, has been raised enough times that his campaign website has posted an image purporting to be of his "Certification of Live Birth" from Hawaii.
But Philip J. Berg, a former deputy attorney general for Pennsylvania, told the Michael Savage talk radio program tonight that the document is forged and that he has a tape recording he will soon release.
"This has been a real sham he's pulled off for the last 20 months," Berg told Savage. "I'll release it [the tape] in a day or two, affidavits from her talking to a certain person. I heard the tape. She was speaking [to someone] here in the United States."
He said the telephone call was from Obama's paternal grandmother affirming she "was in the delivery room in Kenya when he was born Aug. 4, 1961."

Three, be a natural-born citizen. He is not."
Obama campaign officials acknowledged the dispute by posting the image purporting to be a copy of his certification of live birth earlier this year. But they've declined to return WND requests for comment...
WND reported earlier this week Berg's claim that Obama has legally "admitted" the accusations included in his lawsuit, including that he was born in Mombosa, Kenya, by not responding to the allegations.
Berg has cited Rule 36 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, which states that unless the accused party provides written answer or objection to charges within 30 days, the accused legally admits the matter.

The story has real legs. This ain’t something they can duck.
Obama looks guilty here.
I sure hope so.
I hope Michelle’s ‘whitey’ tape can be released the same time as the ‘grandma’ tape. The two together will be devasting to Obama’s campaign.
I thought he had the grandmother’s confirmation in writing, not as a recording.
Oh goodie, another tape promise.
Pity we can’t focus on facts and we focus on some Carnival Barker who keeps bringing up this ridiculous story. The serial number and the certificate with raised seal WERE produced. If this were a real problem Clinton would have wiped him long ago. They base the forgery deduction from the one on Obama’s site and not on the one he produced for FactCheck. This is NO defense of Obama whatsoever, but my god how long are we going to keep chasing rainbows?
I can’t buy this stuff without proof but WOULDN’T IT BE FN HILARIOUS! Mass suicides at the DUmp, the Kos Kommie Kiddie playground and at the Huffingandpuffing Post. LOL!!! It’s too good to be true.
Maybe we’ll get the Michelle Whitey tape, the Michell African Press International tape and the grandma tape all in one day.
BFD
If he is not a “natural born citizen,” his accolytes are not going to give a rat’s ass. After all, if they are going to vote for a condescending elitist who votes to let babies die after being born alive - they are not going to care about whether or not he’s “qualified.”
It’s not a shadow, and hey welcome to FR.
My Gosh, I sure hope so...I have been waiting months for something to come up....we here at FR know a lot more than most. MSM doesnt say anything about Obama.....They cant ignore a tape!!!!! strike one
Next Whitey Tape, strike two
Third at bat R.Odinga, Obama uses U.S. money to support...strike three See YAAAAAAAAA!
i hope
I think the media and the obamaniacs would try to pass a law that it doesnt matter...he is what is right with America....they will go to the Supreme Court!!!!
OBama will be the first Kenyan Citizen to be our Pres.
It might not matter.
All my children were born in Japan, yet all are citizens by birth with US Passports.
I don’t know what the law was in 61, but a child born overseas to a US citizen today can derive citizenship from parentage.
Thanks!
It’s just that I was a trial lawyer and judge for 40 years and, though of course I could be wrong, from what I have found on this issue it looks ludicrous.
Well they can’t do that. Would need to be a constitutional amendment and that won’t happen. But this 9/11 conspiracy theorist’s rantings (Berg) are bogus.
Only if the mother is of age. Obama’a mother was a teenager.
