Really? So if I am the "requester", and there is information pertaining to "me", they cannot withhold it. That is exactly what I said in my earlier post. Wouldn't you agree with me that another person's claims to have proper eligibility qualifications to have the power to enslave me also "pertains" to me? Doesn't his claim to this power over me constitute a clearly unwarranted invasion of MY personal privacy "IF" he is in fact NOT eligible?.
You're trying to make the FOIA act say something it doesn't. There's two issues here - do I agree that whether 0bama is legally qualified for office important to know? For that the answer is yes!
The second is whether I agree that the FOIA gives you the right to request his birth certificate because of concerns about eligibilty. The answer to that one is no. The information you are asking for does not directly pertain to you by their standards. From the FOIA site
If you are requesting information on behalf of an individual, the Department also requires a statement authorizing you to receive the subject’s personal information.You can request private information about yourself and they can't withhold it based on privacy concerns. You can request private information about someone else under FOIA only if you have their authorization. In any case FOIA only involves federal agencies, not state agencies. Hawaii has laws on this, and they are very restrictive.
