If this were a Republican, the government would enforce the Constitution before the candidate was sworn in. We must DEMAND enforcement of the Constitution. Obama has NOT proven natural born citizenship.

You said — Obama has NOT proven natural born citizenship.

No President has been required to do so in the past. All they’ve been required to do is to sign legal statements affirming that they are qualified, with the Secretaries of State of the states. That’s what Obama did...

What we’ve got going on here is a loophole in the Constitution, in that it doesn’t specify exactly how one is to verify that they are qualified per its requirements. Obama simply stated that he was and that he met the Constitutional requirements, like all the other candidates in the past did...

It’s going to take state laws requiring specific documentation, or else a candidate cannot be on the ballot — in order to correct this loophole in the Constitution...
