Serious Trouble Brewing for Obama's Presidential Hopes? UPDATED

The African Press International (yes, you've read that right) has some taped phone conversations between themselves and Michelle Obama. They have finally cleared the legal hurdles to release these tapes(knowing full well the Obama camp will take it this to court), and it will apparently be released soon.

What's on this tape? The inclination from API is some kind of admission that Obama might not be a natural-born citizen of the United States, making him ineligible to run for President. However, because the tape has not been released, and there is a lot of back and forth on the site, I'm not 100% sure.

Now, as much as people may cry "racism" at this kind of possible information, let's remember two things...

1) This is being released by African Press International, not National Review or Red State. There's no "vast right-wing conspiracy" here.

2) According to Article Two, Section One, Clause Five of the Constitution of the United States, the President of the United States MUST be a natural-born citizen.

Then again, it could all be much ado about nothing, we'll find out soon enough...

UPDATE

More info about this to be released at 4 pm Norwegian time...you do the math.
