Proof, ie Birth Certificate for all to see, should be Federal requirement, it is after all, a Federal Office. If it’s rational to make a law to force compliance, is it not rational to insist for it without going through legal hoops?
It would be good to have it be a Federal requirement...
So, looking at the birth certificate issue — you’ve these ways to deal with it...
(1) Federal law (from Congress) specifying that a candidate must show his birth certificate.
(2) Constitutional Amendment that a candidate must show his birth certificate.
(3) State law that a candidate must show his birth certificate.

Of those three... the reason why I’ve been proposing that a state law be enacted in order to legally require the candidate to show his birth certificate or else he cannot be placed on the ballot — is — because a state law can be done quicker and easier.
It’s much easier to get a few conservative states to pass this law than a law out of Congress or a Constitutional Amendment.
If after those state laws have been passed, if either one of the other were to be done, that would be fine...
