That’s right, Chinslurp, NO ONE vetted the marxist’s birth history to verify he was born on US soil.

OK, butthead, so we're back to asking what law said who was supposed to vet him? What state has a law saying their Secretary of State must check birth certificates? What law lays out when and where the Electoral College is supposed to do that? And since you have no clue as to what the FEC is tasked with doing I'll leave that part out.

The unfortunate answer is that nobody is tasked with that responsibility. No state agency, no federal agency, no individual. But it's an easy enough problem to fix. Since states decide who appears on their ballots, even for federal offices, then if only one state would pass a law requiring all candidates must present appropriate documents proving their qualifications for the office then the problem would be solved. Instead of whining about the problems as they are why aren't you advocating solving them?

The law says, in the Constitution, the candidate must meet 3 basic requirements. There is no higher law. And many, if not all states, repeat in their laws that the candidate must meet the Constitutional requirements to appear on the ballot. In fact, they have kicked people off ballots before, including in the 2008 election cycle for not meeting the requirements.

I am advocating passing laws requiring more than Nancy Pelosi’s signature to claim elegibility, though we aren’t even sure the version of the Nominee Declaration sent to the states did even that.

But unlike chinslurps, some of us can walk and chew gum at the same time. We can be for laws forcing SOS’s to actually do the job they are ALREADY empowered to do, but we are also in full support of exposing the marxist quisling beforehand.

You, OTOH, are an Obama chinslurp.

First of all troll, there are efforts underway to create new laws where candidates have to show if they Constitutionally qualify for office. Butt you knew that anyway since you troll here. Second, we can chew gun and walk at the same time... that means we can take on many issues at the same time.
