Right you are. It’s the job of the opposition party to look into such things. And it’s the job of a fiercely independent press to look into such things.
But as we all know, the GOP is no longer a true opposition party. And there is no longer a fiercely independent press. So we got Obama as president. And we got a stolen presidential election since then (2020).
I fear the worst is yet to come.

I would argue it is the *DUTY* of state officials to make certain that anyone being placed on the ballot is eligible for the office. The Democrats believe this too when it's not one of their pieces of vermin running.
Notice how all the Secretaries of state, none of which gave a sh*t about the legality of Obama, are now suddenly all concerned with banning Trump from the ballot on the pretext he engaged in "insurrection"?
So yeah, all the Democrat Secretaries of state now feel it is their duty to protect access to the ballot, but they *DID NOT* feel that way when that idiot hood ornament was running for the Presidency.
So yeah, opposition party is fine, but the Secretaries of State in the various states should have *DEMANDED* proof that Obama was eligible, and absent that, they should have *REFUSED* to allow him on the ballot.
They bungled their jobs. This is malfeasance.
