Berg Fined $10k for Unethical Behavior!
and here is what Mr. Berg really is . . .
He is a Charlatan!
It's unfortunate that somebody who is an attorney and has some mental problems get's any press or attention.
any proof of his mental problems?

Let me break it down so you might understand the concept better. If your mother is a legal US citizen so are you..it matters not where on the planet she happens to give birth to you. Let's say your mom was in Mexico for vacation when she gave birth to you, that doesn't make you a Mexican.
Barak's mother was a legal citizen at the time of his birth. It's irrefutable and well documented.
This whole argument is laughable..

Sorry, but you're wrong. I'm not even going to jump back into the argument of whether or not he was born in Hawaii. However, you need to read my post explaining why it matters where he was born. You're opinion above is incomplete and needs researched a bit more. You're on the right track, but you didn't find the part about the law you're quoting not applying retroactively to those born before the bill was enacted.
Here's the post... Citizenship Law

I read through threads regarding these issues, and frankly it is time for all to move on. The election is over. We must unite NOW.
I said the following in another discussion which I read through today...
Stop it already.
Obama is our president, elected by the majority of Americans. I did not vote for him, however the election is over, he is MY president now, it is time for everyone of us to rally behind him, to support his administration to STOP these insane games aimed at disqualifying him from office.
The American people have spoken in overwhelming numbers.
The time to have done something regarding his eligibility and citizenship passed long before November. Can any of you imagine what would happen now if for some reason Obama is prevented from taking office?
Everyone say it with me...
I am an American, Barack Obama is my President, I will support him.
After 8 years of a Bush administration and all that resulted from that, the new President is going to need ALL of the support he can get. No one should envy him, look at what he is going to be walking into on day 1.
Best of luck President Obama.

I understand that this subject is interesting to many, but looking at the issue from a more practical perspective, there are several reasons why Obama will not be removed from office:
1) He received a majority of the vote, and I'm sure most of them do not care if he was only registered as an American citizen after a week of life--afterall, they didn't care that he was black and his father was Muslim.
Barely a majority, a good lead in electoral college. Most don't care about his politics or history. And you can not register someone as an American if they were born elsewhere, unless they fit other criteria.
2)As far as Obama's personality and loyalty are concerned, he is 100% American. The reason for that law was, essentailly, to ensure such loyalty.
Obama's personality is a lot more like one A. Hitler, and he is about as American as one K. Marx. And you are making some brash assumptions, stating why someone did something two hundred years ago.
3)No one is going to take him on. He has the Congress and Senate fully behind him, as well as powerful people throughout the country. Also, the MSM won't touch it with any seriousness (and even Fox is no longer attacking him--with the exception of Hannity who I believe will soon be let go).
No one is taking him on? What planet are you from? Congress is composed of both the Senate, and the House. You need to go back and read your high school civics book. And if they are behind him, not all, it is because the people they represent, not us, told them to remain silent and support. The media relating any supposed facts or giving their political support, hardly lends those things any credibility. They have a history and a reputation as creating their own facts, or interpretations. Just like lawyers can prevaricate but not lie.
4) Most important, removing him from office will cause widespread and massive civil unrest at the worst possible time. It could mean the destruction of the US.
If he is ruled an illegal alien, I think I will purchase a gun. Whenever the worst elements of society face something they do not like or agree with, they get violent. Fortunately, they tend to stay in and destroy their own neighborhoods.
I know its fun to speculate about these things, but it's time to move on and work on rebuilding the country...a country that was nearly destroyed by men who were born in the US, and whose fathers and fathers' fathers were born there.
Huh? This is not merely blog speculation, this is being handled by the Supreme Court. It is NOT time to move on, this still remains to be settled. And what are you talking about, nearly destroyed? The civil war? That was over Federal dominance or states rights. Not black slavery, which was already going out. It was used by the North as a PR angle to garner support. There were some incredible stories and events by the likes of men like Fredrick Douglass. I do not wish to disparage their greatness. But it was a war over states rights vs. Federal rights.

Those announcements come from official records, but that doesn't matter when you got the tin foil thing going!
