The national billboard campaign asking the simple question “Where’s the Birth Certificate?” has hit Cajun country.
The campaign instituted by Joseph Farah, editor and chief executive officer of WND, has been in dozens of locations in just about as many states already.
Now the question appears on IH-10 east of Lake Charles for traffic headed toward New Orleans.

The campaign, which names no names, cites no political affiliation, doesn’t sell anything and doesn’t ask readers to do anything, already is having an impact, Farah says.
“We’re determined to keep this important constitutional issue alive through the 2012 presidential campaign if necessary,” said Farah. “If Barack Obama seeks re-election, he’s going to need to prove he’s eligible – something he didn’t do in 2008 and hasn’t done since. Instead, he has chosen to fight in courtrooms all attempts to get him to reveal this simple document, to the tune of millions of dollars. There’s a distinguished soldier and surgeon in prison right now because of Obama’s refusal to turn over his birth certificate as a starting point in proving his constitutional eligibility.”
The campaign apparently causes so much alarm that it’s been censored by five outdoor advertising companies, but Farah says many locations remain available, and the postings depend only on the finances available.

“I want everyone to understand there are still plenty of billboards available to lease,” Farah said. “Many supporters of this campaign have gotten the wrong impression – that we simply have been shut out of further billboard purchases by this political suppression. That is not the case. We could buy billboards every single day if we had the financial support we had when this campaign began. There are still plenty of independent outdoor advertising companies happy to accept our money and our campaign.”
Farah believes the billboards have contributed significantly to the sweeping skepticism Americans have regarding Obama’s constitutional eligibility for office, as shown in poll after poll.

Farah cites the doubts about Obama’s eligibility now held by at least 58 percent of the American people, according to the latest national public opinion survey by CNN.
Before the campaign was launched, only half of Americans were even aware of the controversy.

“Every day we hear from Americans seeing these billboards,” said Farah. “Many of them congratulate us on the work. Others are just now being introduced to the questions that have been systematically stonewalled by the major media. I believe this campaign has raised more awareness of the issue than just about anything else. And I believe we are reaching critical mass in getting to the bottom of the mystery.”
Farah says his immediate goal is to help persuade several state legislatures to pass simple, straightforward bills requiring eligibility tests for presidential candidates – especially for “natural born citizenship.”

“As I have said many times, if Obama didn’t have something to hide, he would have long ago produced the original birth certificate proving he was born in Hawaii August 4, 1961, as he claims,” said Farah. “Just such legislation is pending right now in Texas and is expected to be introduced in several other states in 2011. When that happens, I am firmly convinced Obama will decide not to run again. At that point, an investigation needs to be launched by Congress to determine whether he was ever eligible to serve and whether any of his initiatives and actions as president are legitimate.”
Farah says that despite the ban on his message by the outdoor advertising cartel, there are plenty of billboard locations available throughout the country – most of them at bargain prices because of the Obama recession.
“The average billboard we place costs about $4,000 a month,” Farah points out. “Yes, we have had some donated. We’ve had some wonderful outdoor advertising companies that have discounted their boards because they like our campaign. But, at the end of the day, we’ve spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on this campaign – and we need help from the public. We believe it’s the most important way any citizen can make his voice heard on this issue.”
In addition to the billboard campaign, Farah has:
“There are all kinds of things we need to do right now to get our country back on track, but I can think of nothing more important than for us to see that our Constitution is observed, followed, adhered to and honored, especially when it comes to such simple, straightforward matters as the eligibility of the president of the United States,” says Farah. “Please help me bring this matter to a head right now.”
