One of the biggest proponents of ‘birtherism’, the concept that President Barack Obama was not born in the United States, is taking his message of the road. Jerome Corsi, the best-selling author of Where’s the Birth Certificate? is not backing down. “We really don’t know who out president is,” he argues. The Morristown Patch reports:

If you think the controversy over President Obama’s birth certificate is old news, think again.

“The mainstream media has not given this fair treatment,” said political commentator, author and Denville resident Jerome Corsi, who spoke to a supportive, standing-room-only crowd Tuesday evening at the Morristown Masonic Lodge. “But this is not going away. … We really don’t know who our president is.”

Corsi, who holds a doctorate degree in political science from Harvard University, has written several books that many critics dismiss as conspiracy theory riddled with inaccuracies. His influence among conservatives and Tea Party faithful, though, is strong enough that two of his books have landed on the New York Times’ best-seller List.
