Phillip Berg says he’s a lifelong registered Democrat and is more politically aligned with Barack Obama than with John McCain. But he says that if Obama fails to produce his birth certificate by next Tuesday, people shouldn’t vote for him.

Berg is the attorney who filed a federal lawsuit, dismissed Friday night, which demanded that Obama produce the birth certificate to the court. Berg is in the process of preparing an emergency appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court.

Berg believes that Obama was actually born in Kenya, and therefore not qualified to be president of the United States. And he believes that there’s a good chance that the supremes will agree to hear his lawsuit and will rule before Election Day.

If they do, and find in his favor, it would create, if not the constitutional crisis he envisions, certainly a political crisis for the Democratic Party.

Berg, appearing on News Talk Online on Paltalk.com, is dismissive of independent fact checking organizations that claim they’ve inspected Obama’s birth certificate and find him to be a natural born citizen.
