Phase One: The Obama Invasion Something called the We The People Foundation (which is definitely going on the ODS watch list) is planning to run an ad in Monday's Chicago Tribune (and again on Wednesday) that is an open letter to President-Elect Barack Obama, asking him to produce evidence that he is a natural born citizen.
