This a great idea, but only in its beginning stages. We do need the follow-through. And we need to keep an eye what exactly is in the bills that get passed.

E.G., Up until now, all that was needed was the affirmation of the party national committee, and that of the state. Due diligence, if any, was their responsibility, with AG's pretty much rubber-stamping their application.

So, what exactly will the states noted now ask for? A Birth Certificate? Will they accept the COLB, as judges have? Will they insist on the mysterious "Long Form," reputedly hidden in a vault on Mt. Haleakala?
Most important to me: What will the test be for a "Natural Born Citizen?" IMHO, if just one state declared BHO, Jr. not to be a "Natural Born Citizen," That just might put paid to this travesty. If one state officially passes a law that says a "Natural Born Citizen?" is the offspring of two American Citizen Parents, that would also be a major step toward the unequivocal definition we need.

What worries me is that states AG's might be posturing, and then be satisfied with the "proof" that BHO, Jr. is a "Native Born Citizen." At one point, that's all he claimed on his web site, until it was pointed out that he had signed, or caused to be signed, affidavits for state ballots upon which he claimed "Natural Born Citizen." (AZ)
BTW, this great idea was introduced on FreeRepublic (and other places) DURING the election of 2008, by me and many others.

Bottom line: The States' AGs have the absolute right to know, the absolute duty to vet the candidate, and the power to keep an ineligible candidate off a state's ballot. My question: "Will they really do the whole job?"

I have asked a number of elected Republicans on both the state and federal levels, if they thought BHO, Jr. was a "Natural Born Citizen," as required by the Constitution. Not one (1) has answered directly. Uniformly, they deflect the question by saying "....he was born in Hawaii." WTH? Over.
