On August 19, Markham Robinson and Wiley Drake asked a U.S. District Court in Orange County, California, to re-enter the lawsuit Barnett v Obama, SACV09-82. This is one of the lawsuits over the constitutional qualifications to be President. Drake was the vice-presidential candidate listed on the November 2008 ballot in California for the American Independent Party, and Markham is the state chair of the faction of the AIP that supported Alan Keyes for president.

The two are now represented by attorney Gary Kreep. Earlier the attorney for the other plaintiffs, Orly Taitz, had submitted paperwork that indicated Drake and Markham were dropping out of the case. Actually, Drake and Markham want to remain in the case with another attorney. Thanks to Bill Van Allen for this news.
