A Pennsylvania Attorney is trying to convince the Supreme Court that according to the U.S Constitution President-elect Obama is not qualified to lead the country.
Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy has rejected two more efforts to get the court to consider whether President-elect Barack Obama is eligible to take office.
Kennedy on Wednesday denied without comment an appeal by Philip J. Berg, a Pennsylvania attorney, that claims Obama is either a citizen of Kenya or Indonesia and is ineligible to be president because he is not a "natural-born citizen" of the U.S. as required by the Constitution.
Another appeal from California, based on Berg's claims, also was denied.
Individual justices and the entire court have turned down emergency appeals over Obama's eligibility at least seven times in the past six weeks.
Obama was born in Hawaii in 1961 to an American mother and a Kenyan father.
Reacting to Internet-fueled conspiracy theories that Obama's birth certificate is a fake, Hawaiian officials have said they examined the document and have no doubt it is authentic.
Lafayette Hill Attorney Philip Berg has created a website obamacrimes.com.
On the site he insists that President-elect Obama is not a natural born citizen.
