The proposal would require "documents that prove that the candidate is a natural born citizen and meets residency requirements for President of the United States as prescribed in article II, section 1, Constitution of the United States." I seriously doubt the electronically generated COLB President Obama presented online and to FactCheck.com will suffice. He will likely need to submit his original birth papers. Considering the extent president Obama has gone to hide this document, and his other records, will he submit them or drop out of the 2012 race? The law still has to pass in Arizona, but it looks like the support may be there.
(WND)- A plan in Arizona to require presidential candidates to prove their eligibility to occupy the Oval Office is approaching critical mass, even though it has just been introduced.
The proposal from state Rep. Judy Burges, who carried a similar plan that fell short last year only because of political maneuvering, was introduced yesterday with 16 members of the state Senate as co-sponsors.
It needs only 16 votes in the Senate to pass.
In the House, there are 25 co-sponsors, with the need for only 31 votes for passage, and Burges told WND that there were several chamber members who confirmed they support theplanand will vote for it, but simply didn’t wish to be listed as co-sponsors.
Obama will simply show his official birth certificate from Hawaii and Arizona will accept it. It is the official and only birth certificate that Hawaii has issued since 2001--and Hawaii no longer sends out copies of the original birth certificate, even to people born before 2001.
ReplyDeleteProof of birth in the USA is sufficient to prove Natural Born Citizen status. ALL US citizens who were born in the USA are natural born citizens. Only naturalized citizens are not natural born citizens. That is why the US Congress confirmed Obamas' election unanimously.
Anon - maybe so, but Arizona's heart is clearly in the right place. Of the 57 states, they are the one that must drive Obama the most nuts. Here's a tip of the hat to Jan Brewer and her band of merry Republicans.
ReplyDelete57 States??? Really?! This is such a colossal waste of time.

ReplyDelete"ALL US citizens who were born in the USA are natural born citizens."
They are definitely citizens, but the natural born part is murky. Britsh subjects who were born in America were grandfathers at the time of the Constitution. Obama was born a British subject even if he was born in Hawaii. Some claim he can not be a natural born citizen because of this fact. The Constitution doesn't define natural born and Court rulings haven't completely cleared this up.
Grandfathers=grandfathered. LOL.
