FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
INTERNET POWERHOUSE ANDY MARTIN IS BACK IN HONOLULU TO FIGHT FOR ACCESS TO BARACK OBAMA’S ORIGINAL, TYPEWRITTEN 1961 BIRTH CERTIFICATE
AN INSIDE LOOK AT THE PREPARATION NECESSARY TO PRESENT A COMPLEX CONSTITUTIONAL CASE 8,000 MILES AWAY FROM HOME
(HONOLULU)(November 16, 2008) Aloha from Hawai’i.
I landed in Honolulu Friday and we have set up a fully functional “fighting camp” to prepare for the court hearing Tuesday, November 18th at 10:30 A.M. on access to Barack Obama’s birth certificate
This will be the first court hearing anywhere on access to the original, 1961 certificate. The only state that has jurisdiction over such a lawsuit is Hawai’i, because Hawai’i officials are the custodians of the 1961 typewritten paperwork.
Before we get to the back story, let me start with a disclaimer. I have no idea what the judge will do on Tuesday. I make no predictions, except one: I will prepare to the best of my ability and present as professional a case as the judge permits. Monday morning I will be on the street serving papers and filing with the Clerk in preparation for Tuesday.
And, looking ahead, whatever happens on Tuesday, on Wednesday we hope to launch my “Conversation With America” about our future course of action in an Obama administration. I invite all of you to join in and support this mission.
Just as the FBI always attends every Gambino Family funeral to see who is there, ContrarianCommentary.com was in Honolulu Friday to observe the “independent” (not family-sponsored) “memorial service” held in memory of Barack Obama’s grandmother, Madelyn Dunham. We will have a full column later Sunday, or possibly Monday.
It occurred to me that you might appreciate some insight into the effort that goes into preparing and presenting a major piece of litigation 8,000 miles away from home.
Anyone who has read our Memorandum of Law (see the ContrarianCommentary.com blogs below for a full copy) will not be surprised that it took us the better part of a week to analyze, research, write and finalize a 25-page document (which we will be filing with the Clerk on Monday morning) setting forth why Obama’s birth certificate must be made public.
If a large law firm was handling the case of Martin vs. Obama, they would probably send a minimum team of four lawyers as well as support personnel. They would have a trial counsel, a couple of associates, and a senior partner to guide the overall process. There would be at least one paralegal, possibly more. That’s why high stakes litigation is so costly.
Martin vs. Obama is a high stakes lawsuit: it seeks to open a vital record of American history to public review and analysis.
And I will be working alone.
Ask any lawyer: it’s not easy landing in a strange town, setting up an office and firing off legal documents in a controversial constitutional case. But we managed to file the lawsuit two days after arriving in Honolulu in October, and now we are back for the first court hearing anywhere to address the issue of Barack Obama’s origins.
Landing in an unfamiliar city, any lawyer would need a support network. We managed to recreate our October “fighting camp” in 24 hours and are up and running. I dragged a printer on the 12 hour flight because we have to be able to react immediately to any development. Saturday morning we were out assembling office supplies to be ready to move quickly on Monday morning.
I even purchased a box of envelopes so that if we have a breather, we can start mailing out thank you notes to everyone who contributed to the financial support of this very costly and complex venture. There is no wasted time on a trip of this nature, and no wasted money.
I will take time off Sunday morning to attend services at Saint Andrews (Episcopal) cathedral in downtown Honolulu. And I forgot to pack my sunglasses, so I need to go shopping for a pair.
Unlike other lawsuits involving Obama, mine is narrowly and specifically focused on access to the original, typewritten 1961 certificate which Hawai’i officials have confirmed they possess. There is no way anyone can express an opinion on the circumstances of Obama’s birth without seeing the vital gateway document. I have refrained from speculating on the contents of the original because my focus is on expressing an informed opinion (a term CNN once made fund of).
Mr. Obama and his Chicago crew have been very crafty in creating a cloud of confusion over the “abstract” that he furnished to FactCheck.org as a purported original birth certificate, when obviously it was nothing of the sort. Many millions of people were confused even though the term “abstract” was clearly visible on the FactCheck.org site (and even though FactCheck.org seems to have missed that significance, as well).
We will also be continuing and conducting the research and investigation we began in October to document Obama’s origins in Hawai’i with interviews and contacts with people who knew his family and the other “players” in the Honolulu dramas of the 1970’s and 80’s.
As these comments are being prepared Sunday morning I can only conclude with a sense of deep humility at the enormity of the task and the nature of the burden. I continue to bear Barack Obama no ill will. Nevertheless, I passionately and sincerely believe that he owes the American people a detailed exposition of both his personal and his family history, and that he has not been candid with the American people. Without candor, he will not be able to establish the legitimacy that is essential for national leadership. He remains a stranger to the American people.
Barack Obama and his character assassins such as Robert Gibbs have done everything they can to demonize and defeat and intimidate me. They have failed utterly and abjectly. Tuesday morning I will stand up in court, stand tall, and stand proud for every American who believes Barack Obama needs to start telling the truth about himself. The election may be over. But the search for the truth about Mr. Obama is continuing.

Thanks.
Birthgate needs to be settled before this guy assumes office.
Good luck.
Andy, in your opening paragraph you have Obama born in 1962. You might want to edit it... --jws
Hope the sunglasses you seem to feel u need do not reflect injustice in the courts. You can hold off mailing thank you's in the event the court rules in your favor as it should be the public sending thanks to you. Best of luck, brush your teeth, look to the vulcano Gods or whatever it takes for a good day in court.
Best of luck to you. We appreciate all your effort. Had I known you could have used some help, I would have been able to assist you.
Thanks Andy for your hard work. Cannot wait to hear what happens today. There are many praying for you and justice!
HAHAHAHA
Even if the esposure of Obummers birth certificate does not cause him to be ineligible to be president, there has to be some information he is withholding that he has lied about.
Keep up the good work Andy, this is all worth while.

Andy why hasn't McCain brought up this birth certificate issue or any other congressman, what the hell's wrong with this country, and the people, a bunch of girley men

Thanks Andy
I will help you all i can to expose Hussan, it's obvious his birthcirtificate isn't authentic since Hawaii judges won't expose him they have been paid off...
After insulting everyone else and questioning their motives and credibility, your not saying much as to what your doing now with your suit. All I know is that yours got shot down just like the others. Anyone who refers to themselves in the third person ("Internet Powerhouse") is a little wacko, and suffers in the credility department too. SO...what are you doing to make you better than the others?
