WorldNetDaily billboard campaign

 

In a statement released today, WorldNetDaily Editor and Chief Executive Officer Joseph Farah says he is offering a $10,000 reward to anyone who can prove he or she was present at the birth of Barack Obama – and he's asking Americans to donate to the cause in hopes of raising the bounty to an irresistible amount.
 
"Barack Obama claims to have been born in Honolulu Aug. 4, 1961," explains Farah.
 
"His entire constitutional claim to the presidency rests on this premise. Yet, he refuses to release a copy of his long-form birth certificate – the only document that could possibly corroborate his claim. Therefore, in the interest of truth, justice and the Constitution, I am making the extraordinary offer to entice someone to come forward with the facts of his birth – whether it took place in Hawaii or elsewhere."
 
The “birther” movement has been a niche the political right wing, has attempted to overturn the results of November’s election by proving that President Obama is ineligible to serve. It also fuels Obama conspiracy theories surrounding his faith and true allegiance to Christianity and the United States. The statement includes a copy of Obama’s birth certificate appearing to disprove the underpinning of their cause. The “short form” Certification of Live Birth includes a statement "This copy serves as prima facie evidence of the fact of birth in any court proceeding.” The “birther” movement believes that only the long-form certificate provides valid proof of birth.
 
The statement continues:
 
"It is clear now that Obama will never willingly release his birth certificate," said Farah. "It's time for Americans who still value the Constitution to step up and force the issue. It's time for us to learn the truth of where Obama was born. We may find he was born in Hawaii. We may find he was born elsewhere. I have no pre-conceived ideas. But this issue has haunted the American people long enough. It's time for some truth and transparency."
 
To collect the reward, the subject must:
 
1. Agree to an interview with WND journalists;
2. Provide persuasive evidence, such as pictures, documents or verifiable details;
 
3. Agree to a polygraph test.
 
"I think it's disgraceful that Americans should be forced to go to such lengths by the intransigence of public officials toward accountability," said Farah. "But that is what it has come to in 2009 with our current president. He prefers to dodge and weave, while his apologists in government and media viciously attack citizens for attempting to see that the Constitution is observed."
