Berman was referring to President Barack Obama, whose birthplace has been questioned by some since before he took office. Although his campaign produced a birth certificate that shows Obama was born in Hawaii....a "certificate of live birth" is NOT a birth certificate.

This looks to be a growing trend in state legislatures. It’s a slap in the face to the Obamites and they know it.

Well yeah, but hey, if it keeps him off the ballot the next go round, then it’s worth it.
To: ConservaTexan
Laws are usually written to address a problem,not anticipate one;who imagined the Democrat and Republican party bosses would ignore the Constitutional eligibility of a presidential candidate?

I am sure that, as we speak, the Whitey House is preparing a press statement condemning the Texas Legislature’s actions.

AZ might not have enough electoral votes for O to care; but Texas does.

"One presidential election too late... "
We should do like clinton did when he took office with the tax increases...make the law RETROACTIVE...would that then convert his presidency to "invalid"?

Not to mention the entire federal judiciary, the SCOTUS, and the entire media.

IMHO, this is going the wrong way. The bill should require proof of “Natural Born Citizenship” status, not birthplace proof. The Constitution requires the former, not the latter. Just proof of location doesn’t guarantee constitutional requirements.

Hopefully the proposed bill would require proof of “Natural Born Citizen” status not just a birth place.

if it keeps him off the ballot the next go round If there is a next "go round." I get the sense that Obama will not go meekly into the night.

Actually, it needs to require birth certificate and proof of citizenship for both parents.

Arizona started the ball rolling on this type of bill. It will be ready for Gov Brewers signature soon.

unfortunately it is only happening in states 0bama has no chance on winning. We need to see a law like this in a state that is always close, such as OH, PA or MO.
