| − | 175. Wikipedia lists Factcheck.org as a "non-partisan" "'consumer advocate' for voters that aims to reduce the level of deception and confusion in U.S. politics." (ref: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FactCheck). However, two attempted edits were deleted pointing out factcheck.org falsely claims that Barry Soetoro (aka. Barak Obama) has produced his birth certificate: "FactCheck.org staffers have now seen, touched, examined and photographed the original birth certificate." (ref: http://www.factcheck.org/elections-2008/born_in_the_usa.html). This claim contradicts the fact that the document they refer to is a copy of a Certficate Of Live Birth, produced in 2007, as opposed to a Birth Certificate.
