And no President ever has been required to provide the kind of proof that is now being demanded. This is something that definitely needs to be changed. Several Freepers are working on legislation for this. I am hopeful that they will be successful before the 2012 elections.
I agree with you that the mandate needs to be included to provide for certification of NBC in order to be sworn in as POTUS. My question to you is do you know whether this work is being done as a state legislation process or at the national level for say certification to the Electoral College?
I understand that all efforts are at the state level right now.
But then, only a few states (or one big one) actually need to do this for it to be effective.
