Orly Taitz didn't come remotely close to advancing her bid for California attorney general in Tuesday's open primary, finishing second-to-last in a crowded field of seven candidates. Incumbent Kamala Harris (D) easily prevailed over the competition with 53 percent of the vote.

Actually a Democrat attorney on behalf of Hillary Clinton opened Obama up for that can of worms.

Lawsuit concerning Barack Obama[edit (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Philip_J._Berg&action=edit&section=4&editintro=Template:BLP_editintro)]Main article: Barack Obama presidential eligibility litigation § Berg v. Obama (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barack_Obama_presidential_eligibility_litigation#B erg_v._Obama)
Berg filed a complaint in federal district court on August 21, 2008, against Democratic Party presidential nominee SenatorBarack Obama (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barack_Obama), the Democratic National Committee and the Federal Election Commission, alleging that Obama was born actually in Mombasa (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mombasa), Kenya (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kenya) and that the "Certification of Live Birth" on Obama's website is a forgery. The court dismissed the complaint as "frivolous and not worthy of discussion."[13] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philip_J._Berg#cite_note-edpaorder-13)[14] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philip_J._Berg#cite_note-pdn-14) The judge also found that the harm Berg alleged did "not constitute an injury in fact" and that Berg's arguments to the contrary "ventured into the unreasonable."[13] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philip_J._Berg#cite_note-edpaorder-13)[14] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philip_J._Berg#cite_note-pdn-14) Berg filed a petition for writ of certiorari (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Writ_of_certiorari) to the United States Supreme Court (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Supreme_Court) and also sought an injunction (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Injunction) to suspend the election. The injunction was denied by Justice David Souter (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Justice_David_Souter) on November 3, 2008. Berg also sought an application for injunction pending the disposition of the petition for writ of certiorari; Justice Souter denied it, Berg refiled and submitted it to Justice Anthony Kennedy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthony_Kennedy) (who denied it), then refiled and submitted it to Justice Antonin Scalia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antonin_Scalia), who referred it to the Court. On January 12, 2009, the Supreme Court denied Berg's petition for writ of certiorari,[15] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philip_J._Berg#cite_note-15)[dead link (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Link_rot)] and on January 21 the Court denied the application for injunction.[16] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philip_J._Berg#cite_note-SCtDocket-16)
