Why would anyone vote for a president that is suing your state in this United States for obeying/enforcing the law? Obama is clearly trashing our Constitution and the US Constitution...he is the law breaker here. Fire Sheriff Dupnik for refusing to enforce 'some' immigration laws also...he is a disgrace to Law Enforcement and Arizona.

I wonder why no one in Hawaii officialdom is stepping up? Hmmmm!

Now if we could get romney off the ticket & a real conservative on.

Obama will be on the AZ ballot. This nonsense can only boost Democratic turnout.

[Artcore]

Sorry, but this is nothing but blustering! Don't worry, Obama will indeed be kept on the ballot.

These dog and pony shows are getting tiresome.

unless he receives confirmation from Hawaii that it has a valid birth certificate on file for him.

They'll lie on cue.

[Theodore R.]

Don’t threaten, just quietly do it.

There are easily 300,00 diehard liberals in AZ, some of the elderly would be old-style Udall backers.

Overwhelming evidence?
It’s under a cloud as far as I’m concerned,
all that’s being asked is for state assurance
of a birth certificate not even producing it.

[Minutemen]

Ha Ha!! ...and here in the state of Oregon, if I am pulled over, I do not not have to produce a drivers license. I just tell the cop “don’t worry, I have one”.

[tet68]

Here is a chance for Romney to get ahead by
sending a state certified copy of his BC to
Arizona saying he just wants to set the record
straight.

[Lucky9teen]

Despite overwhelming evidence that Obama was born in Hawaii, the issue of his birth continues to dog him.

What is this “overwhelming evidence”??????????

And if all they have to do is say yes, there is a birth certificate (and not have to actually show it), why not just do that?

LIARS and FRAUDS

[tomkat]

Just Do It !

[RowdyFFC]

Not one official in all Hawaii is willing to certify Obama’s Hawaiian birth, not even their new commie governor Abercrombie who specificially said, “There are no birth documents for Obama in the Hawaiian vaults.” The don’t want to go to jail for falsifying by confirming, even. They will stonewall Arizona’s SOS...they’re already doing it by questioning his need for the document. They think by demanding that Arizona SOS’s need for proof that eventually he will have no Arizona law or regulations to back him up. I sure hope the Arizona SOS can find something that backs his ability to call for proof.

Even the DNC Hawaii would not certify to the Hawaiian SOS that Obama was qualified to serve. Nancy Pelosi herself had to sign a fraudulent statement and send it to the Hawaiian SOS to get Obama on the ballot.

This article sentence needs to be fixed:

"Despite overwhelming underwhelming evidence that Obama was born in Hawaii, the issue of his birth continues to dog him."


Better.

Arizona Secretary of State Ken Bennett is threatening to keep President Obama’s name off the state’s ballot in November unless he receives confirmation from Hawaii that it has a valid birth certificate on file for him.

If this news report is accurate and complete (an unlikely miracle in itself,) this guy is showboating.
Up to now, such requests have been answered with, "Yes we confirm that we do have a birth certificate on file," without even a clumsy attempt to provide credible proof, or authentication by independent experts. Caarying about as much value as Nancy Pelosi, with no real knowlege or proof, merely stating that Obama was totally qualified.

It may be simply a desperate attempt at hiding gross incompetence in record-keeping on the part of Hawaii, or the more sinister "C" word.

It's a useless exercise as reported.

I DO believe that the qualifications for voting and candidacy is and should always remain a State function. The request is both legal and reasonable.
