Secretary of State Ken Bennett said Tuesday evening that he has received an e-mail from officials in Hawaii, which he believes contains the information he sought to verify President Barack Obama's birth certificate.As for Kobach... he couldn't wait to close it down. He seized upon the complaints withdrawal to end hearing. The fact that the complaint was withdrawn under duress - claims of being threatened - was completely ignored. Those claims where later withdrawn... gee imagine that."By requesting the verification I can now report to thousands of constituents that we did what can be done and he is qualified to be on the ballot," Bennett said.
Bennett said he had not actually opened the email as of 7 p.m. Tuesday, but was confident it contained the information he asked for.

These two disgrace themselves and their office.
None of the backstory changes the facts.
Also there is no state or federal law which requires a presidential candidate to submit a birth certificate in order to qualify as eligible.
The way to challenge an allegedly ineligible candidate for president in every state plus under federal law is via eligibility challenge lawsuits such as this one: Mc Innish & Goode v. Chapman, in Alabama.
In the 2012 election cycle, there were 50 challenges to Obama’s eligibility adjudicated in 22 states plus the District of Columbia.
