I’m not sure what it is. Probably just that they are afraid of bad press and ridicule, although I think there are some people who may have been threatened. The ones in more critical positions.
In any event, at this point the state-run media is going to get as many people as they can to try to say Constitutionalists on this issue are crazy, fringe people. We just need to expect that at the moment, but use the anger we feel about it to motivate us to action, because right now is the EXACT TIME we can EFFECTIVELY push to resolve this.
It needs to happen at the state level. The states get to decide how they determine who their electors can vote for. This whole mess can finally be resolved if just one state signs into law in time for 2012 a bill like the one I propose at http://butterdezillion.files.wordpress.com/2011/01/final-short-form-eligibility-bill1.pdf
Deadlines for bills to be introduced are FAST approaching so immediate action is critical.
Quite a few states have eligibility bills already introduced, but it would be even better if they could be amended to add the requirement that TRANSACTION LOGS for any required documents also be disclosed, to screen for forgeries or tampering.
We are not going to get anything from Congress, the courts, the media, bureaucrats in Hawaii or any other state, or law enforcement. The one place where we CAN see immediate effective action is with our own state legislatures and governor.
This week everybody will be talking about SOTU. It’s gonna be a totally boring week. A GREAT time to concentrate on rallying our state legislators to pass a much-needed bill. Please spread the news around as much as you can, and ask everyone to ask their state legislators to introduce and pass this bill.
We are much, much more powerful than we think. We just need to focus our power like a laser to the one place that power can bring real results: the state legislatures.
Why can't it be resolved now by a House subpoena for these documents?
I am fairly certain that no other state can resolve this issue. Why do you think that federal courts will not compel every state to recognize (full faith and credit) as legitimate whatever public documents the State of Hawaii claims are determinative?
So, focus on this: Why can't Speaker Boehner or Congressman Issa just subpoena these materials?
