FEDeral court will shoot that down.

The SC of Alabama has no standing to rule on the issue. Obama never lived in Alabama when he became old enough to register, to my knowledge.

This is an effort in futility by whomever brought the case.

Who, then, IS supposed to determine whether a Secretary of State properly performed her legally-required tasks?

I think the state has standing because it's defending/upholding its own state election laws. Obama never living there has nothing to do with it.

I also think the Court would have ruled prior that there was no standing shown.....and thrown it without a ruling out at that time.

Of course, that's my opinion, I don't wear a black robe, only a cuddly, fleecy one from Penney's when it's chilly, LOL.

The suit is against the Alabama Secretary of State, not Obama.

What pray tell are you talking about? This is purely a state election issue where the Sec of State has an obligation to certify ‘qualified’ candidates to be placed on the Alabama ballot. Since the Sec failed in her duties, the AL Supr. Ct. is now acting. There is no Federal basis to review this discretionary state election issue.
