The latest billboard erected is in Lake City, known as “the gateway to Florida,” a city of 13,000 about 45 miles from Gainesville. The “Where’s the birth certificate?” outdoor sign is located on Interstate 75 one mile north of Interstate 10.

The national campaign began in May 2009 and has been credited with taking what was regarded as a “fringe” movement based on rumor and speculation to one that now, according to most polls, represents mainstream, popular American opinion – namely that Barack Obama has not proven he is constitutionally eligible for office and that he is purposefully hiding something.

“Anyone and everyone who wants to see Obama forced to prove his eligibility by releasing the documents and the evidence can help sustain this billboard campaign as well as participate in other ways,” says Farah.

For the immediate future, the billboard campaign is targeting the Dallas, Texas, area – giving residents a chance to help fund the efforts in advance.

“We’ve been asking WND readers to help us defray the costs of this effort for more than a year,” said Farah. “It occurred to me we could give residents of specific areas of the country a chance to fund billboards in their own community. Dallas has always been a very strong market for WND, so I am optimistic that we will get some support for billboards to go up there later this summer.”

The campaign that raises a question fundamental to the constitutional eligibility of President Barack Obama started in May 2009 and touched off a furor in media and political circles.

Three major billboard companies banned the campaign;

Local media outlets have covered the billboards wherever they are erected;

Since the campaign began, national opinion polls show more and more Americans questioning Obama’s refusal to release his long-form birth certificate and other papers that would answer questions about his schooling, his collge career, his travels, his Selective Service registration, his health and his Social Security records.

“I have to admit, this campaign has accomplished more than I imagined it might,” said Farah. “There’s no stopping this campaign now unless Obama resigns, is impeached or is defeated for re-election in 2012.”

The campaign has been boosted by local TV coverage – intended or unintended – in markets all over the country. One Las Vegas anchor team seemed shocked when the billboard at the Mandalay Bay Resort flashed on screen immediately following a clip of Obama speaking. Other news shows have used the billboards to debate the controversy openly and honestly – something, Farah says, that has not happened on any major national television networks despite polls showing half the country is suspicious about what Obama might be hiding.

“There’s no denying it,” says Farah. “No matter how hard my colleagues try to make the public forget about this issue, no matter how hard they attempt to ridicule anyone who wants to see the proof, no matter how much they demean even decorated military officers who take their own oaths seriously, this issue will not go away. It’s going to be around in 2012. It may even be the defining issue in 2012.”

“I’m quite sure based on our own polls that if those people were asked whether they would like to see Obama release his birth certificate, more than half the country would say ‘yes’ – and all the other personal papers he has refused to disclose,” Farah said.

Farah says the billboards have had a lot to do with changing popular opinion – even if the media don’t get it.

“People simply shouldn’t have to conjecture about where they think their president was born,” he says. “It ought to be a matter of public record – and it clearly is not.”

“The impact of the billboards is magnified by local television and talk-radio shows in every market they enter,” explains Farah. “It’s not just the billboard. It’s the earned media that comes along with it. It’s astounding. We have turned millions of people around on this issue with the billboards. It’s just that simple.”

“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.”
