Something that needs to be done in every State in the next couple of years is to establish a legal requirement that ALL Candidates for every State Elected Office must prove their citizenship and qualifications before being allowed on the Ballot.

Voters do not vote for any Federal candidate, they are all Statewide candidates; Presidential Electors, Senators, and Congressmen. For Surrick to tell Berg that he had “no standing” to bring suit is a direct slap at every legitimate voter in the State, and should be overturned.

I will be contacting my State legislators, as well as the Governor and Secretary of State, to find out just what needs to be done to accomplish it here in PA. I suggest everyone should do the same in their own State. Make them live up to their own laws!

Dear (Legislator)

During the current election it has come to light that apparently there are no Federal or State Provisions to ensure a Presidential candidate’s eligibility before placing their name on any ballot. This came to light because Sen. Barack 0bama has steadfastly refused to provide a certified birth certificate showing that he qualifies as “Native Born” as required by Article II Section 1 of the US Constitution.

The applicable section is as follows:

No person except a natural born citizen, or a citizen of the United States at the time of the adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the office of President; neither shall any person be eligible to that office who shall not have attained to the age of thirty five years, and been fourteen Years a resident within the United States.

Furthermore, in Sen. Obama’s case, there is good reason to believe he may have at some point renounced his US Citizenship and embraced foreign citizenship, even to the extent of traveling under a foreign passport.

There have been several challenges to Sen. Obama’s eligibility in numerous lawsuits filed across the Country. Should he win election, be elected by the Electoral College and sworn in, and then subsequently found to be ineligible, he would be a usurper and any actions, orders, etc. by him would be null and void. This would spawn a Constitution crisis.

Therefore I request that you submit legislation to the Pennsylvania Legislature that directs the Secretary of State prior to placing an individual’s name on the ballot in Pennsylvania, to verify a Presidential Candidate’s eligibility in accordance with Article II, Section 1 of the US Constitution by personally viewing and verifying certified birth records and to make a good faith attempt to determine if any subsequent actions pertaining to citizenship occurred. This would apply to all candidates for President, including incumbents.

We are required at several times in our life to present valid documentation for things as mundane as drivers licenses, passports, etc. The requirements of qualification for every State Elected Office should be met prior to acceptance to placement on the Ballot. Surely, requiring proof of eligibility for President, or any Elected Office in the State of Pennsylvania, should require as much.

Sincerely,

Full Name and Address

Feel free to copy and revise as needed.

How about an injunction and/or class action suit against the Electoral College (when the time comes) for not doing their due diligence to assure the elected official they are certifying actually complies with the constitutional requirements to hold office?

The MSM told me not to worry about this and to grin and bear it and deal with the fact (or strong suspicion) that we have a phoney being sworn in.
