(Address)

(Dear Congress-member/Senator _________:)

It is my understanding that a letter has been sent to you via certified mail from Mr. Lucas Smith
asserting that Mr. Smith has personal knowledge indicating that Barack Obama was born in
Mombasa, Kenya; and further that Mr. Smith provided a certified copy of the Kenyan birth
certificate for Mr. Obama (which Mr. Smith has in his possession).

The learned constitutional scholarship and meticulous research of Attorneys Mario Apuzzo and
Leo Donofrio has demonstrated clearly that the “natural born citizen” requirement relating to
eligibility for the office of president set forth in Article II of the United States Constitution
means, as defined by Emerich de Vattel in “The Law of Nations,” “born in the country of parents
who are citizens.” (Vattel provides an exception regarding the first requirement in the case of
“children born out of the country in the armies of the state” which apparently covered John
McCain.)

Thus the presidential eligibility clause in Article II of the U.S. Constitution means that there are
TWO independent conditions which must be met to satisfy the NBC requirement to serve as
president (or vice-president in accordance with the Twelfth Amendment to the Constitution), and
for which, by implication, the people have a right of verification and substantiation:

1. the person elected to the office of president must have been born in the United States
(subject to the single exception stated above); and
2. the person elected to the office of president must have been born of parents who are
BOTH citizens of the United States at his or her birth.

The purported Kenyan birth certificate may or may not be authentic, but it seems unlikely that
Mr. Smith would send this document by hand-addressed certified mail to 535 members of
Congress, as well as to the non-voting members of the House, unless he believed it to be
authentic.

If this document is valid, then Obama is clearly and unequivocally ineligible to serve in the
office of president, and he must be removed.

On the other hand, if it can be proven that he was actually born in Hawaii as he claims, then the
parental citizenship issue must be resolved, most likely requiring a clarifying decision by the U.S
Supreme Court in spite of the clear language of the Constitution. (See note below) This is why it
is so important to get the matter of the legally-admissible documentation of Obama’s birth
location resolved promptly, so as to move expeditiously to the Supreme Court if that becomes
necessary as a result of the production by Obama of a valid Hawaiian birth certificate.

1
It is without doubt the responsibility of Obama himself to provide this documentation. His
refusal to do so is not only absolutely unprecedented – it is an outrage against the American
people, and itself creates a mandate for a congressionally-ordered resolution of this matter,
including a forensic examination of the Lucas Smith document if a valid Hawaiian birth
certificate is not produced.

If the law does not provide a remedy to the denial of a vested legal right of the people to have a
constitutionally-qualified president, then this government is no longer “a government of laws,
and not of men”, in the famous words of no less an authority than Chief Justice John Marshall in
Marbury v. Madison.

For your information, an interview was conducted with Mr. Lucas Smith by Sharon Rondeau,
editor of The Post and Email, and published here.

A related guest editorial containing certain observations relating to the presence of Mr. Smith at
the September 8, 2009 hearing at the Federal Courthouse in Santa Ana, CA in the Obama
eligibility case Barnett et al v. Obama, was published shortly thereafter here.

Since I believe that this is an extremely urgent matter relating directly to the national security of
the United States, I feel it is necessary for you to be aware of this information in order to fulfill
your duties pursuant to your oath of office as a member of the United States House of
Representatives to “support and defend the Constitution of the United States of America against
all enemies, foreign and domestic”.

I hereby request a substantive response from you or your authorized representative concerning
such action as you intend to undertake in connection with this matter, a matter which I believe
represents a true constitutional crisis unprecedented in the history of this nation.

Sincerely;
