Thanks Rudman, but.. you're right. Since both laws were enacted later, they don't mean anything.
I have read, in several places... that in 1961 (2 years after becoming a state)... in Hawaii, it was common for people in various islands to get a COLB in Hawaii. If so....then it was possible to get a COLB, without having been actually born on state territory.
If this is true... then, the COLB is, indeed, NOT PROOF. It's evidence, but... not conclusive. Supposedly, a long form birth certificate would contain the actual birth location... Which, I think... is why we should all have a right to see it.... to KNOW that our President in qualified to hold the office.
I think I can answer #2... and, the answer is: No one. It's strictly the candidate's word... and, a required signature from the Party chair.
It doesn’t matter if he is or he isn’t the issue is he is hiding the truth from the American People. Too bad most of you weren’t around during the Nixon years when a far less serious grievance forced Nixon out of office. Apparently, Americans like lying, cheating, deceiving presidents these days...Nixon should NEVER have resigned....
