One does not need to prove he/she is a citizen of US to live here. I came here on a student visa, got my graduate degree, was hired by a large corporation who sponsored me for permanent resident status (aka green card). Then I was eligible for citizenship after a waiting period of 5 years. So I was in US almost 10 years without citizenship, studying and working.

I think what the author means is one does not need to prove he/she is a citizen to VOTE, but must prove one has health insurance if you live here.

Makes for a good tagline for someone.....I like Ben overall - I just wish his conservative positions were more consistent with conservatives.

Here's a Ben Stein quote I saved from a 2007 FR post:

Ben Stein in the Feb. 2007 issue of The American Spectator eviscerates Obama:

"...what is this insanity about Barack Obama? He's nobody. Nothing. Just a small town ward heeler who has already been busted taking bribes, has no experience at all -- NONE -- on the world stage or in defense or anything else. Could we be crazy enough to even consider him as president? Have we gone totally nuts? Hillary is a responsible politician with broad experience. I do not want to see her elected, but she's Winston Churchill compared to Obama."
