Even with the election of Barack Obama to the Presidency, the questioning of his birth whereabouts continues. Now Alan Keyes and the American Independent Party of California have filed suit in Superior Court to halt California from giving its electoral votes to Obama. Keyes was the American Independent Party nominee for President. He came in seventh with about 40,000 votes.

During the campaign, conservative bloggers questioned Obama’s birth location. They claimed he was born in Kenya and held citizenship in Indonesia. These skeptics claimed that Obama released a fake birth certificate in June in an attempt to quiet the investigations.

Organizations like FactCheck and Poltifact have provided ample evidence disproving the allegations.

When a birth announcement for Barack Obama was found in the Honolulu Advertiser on August 13, 1961, it would have seemed that this lunacy was over. Yet, no, some conservatives even had a conspiracy for figured out for that. They claim Obama’s mother gave birth in Kenya on August 4 and traveled to Hawaii to put the announcement in the paper.

Right, she must have known her son was going to run for President one day and needed the cover.

As Politifact wrote, “It is possible that Obama conspired his way to the precipice of the world’s biggest job, involving a vast network of people and government agencies over decades of lies. Anything’s possible. But step back and look at the overwhelming evidence to the contrary and your sense of what’s reasonable has to take over.”

If you believe that is possible, then every conspiracy is a fact.

Now that Alan Keyes has lost another election, this is about the only thing left he can do to get attention. Then again Keyes might just like losing to Obama. This lawsuit is going down. Keyes lost this Presidential election too. He also was the emergency fill-in candidate that the Illinois Republican Party put up in 2004 when Obama ran and won election to the Senate. One thing is for certain. Keyes will be back…in 2012 to lose again.
