There is a clear system in place at the secretaries of state offices. They must ensure that the candidates they place on the ballot are quyalified. The fact that they did not does not indicate the need for a new law. It argues for them to do their jobs and uphold their oaths of office to defend the constitution of their states and the US.

I’ve yet to find a single state that lays down in law just how a Secretary of State is supposed to verify the eligibility of a person running for election.

This is where Obama was able to sneak in, yea the requirement is there but the backbone for it is missing. All states simply accept the signature of someone running for office.

It’s some sort of faith system, after all we know politicians would never, ever lie.

If you know of a state that does have lawful requirements written into their code on the means and manner to verify eligibility, I’d love to see it. If there is one we may be able to find a citizen of that state, and a lawyer willing to put everything on the line, to go after their secretary of elections for malfeasance of office.
