Arizona Senate passes Obama birther bill after boost from Donald Trump
Biz Journals ^ | 04/13/2011 | Mike Sunnucks

The Arizona Senate approved the so-called ‘birther’ bill requiring 2012 presidential candidates to prove they were born in the U.S. and are thus eligible to run for president.

The measure, House Bill 2177, is aimed at President Barack Obama and those on the political right who want him to produce a birth certificate proving he was born in Hawaii and not Kenya, where his father if from.

The Arizona Legislature passed the bill 20-8 on a party-line vote in the State Senate with Republicans backing and Democrats opposing.

The measure includes some changes that allow for other documents beside birth certificates to be produced by presidential contenders. It now goes back to the Arizona House of Representatives for another vote. The House previously approved the birther bill without new Senate changes.

IIRC, the difference is that ANYBODY can get a “Certification” regardless of where they are born, while a “Certificate” is issued by the hospital.

If the president says that his father is Barak Obama, Sr. is he not admitting that he is not a Natural Born Citizen? Put that to him and he will show his BC if it is not true. Wouldn’t you say?

What kind of "other documents"?

What it allows is the AZ SoS to disallow a candidate on the ballot if the SoS doesn't believe that the proof of the documents don't prove eligibility (ie he believes they're forged).

So a Democratic Party hack can just say, "Sorry, the Republicans don't get on the ballot; I just don't like the look of their paperwork."

The Obama campaign will just present the COLB.

Precisely. And when the Establishment hacks nod and say, "Yep, good enough", that will be trumpeted as "proof" that Birthers are conspiracy nuts.

This bill actually makes things worse, not better.

Thanks for another great post

I also posted this on your other article about Romney Blasting Trump over BC Issue

Romney may have been born to an ilegal Father !!

Romney’s father was nicknamed “Chihuahua George”

because he was born in a Morman colony in “Chihuahua, Mexico”.

Does not say weather George was a Citizen of US when Mitt was born????

I read George Romney’s Bio... Stated he was born in Mexico; but,The family moved back

to the US .... It never said if the family “gave up their citizenship” when they

lived in Mexico. Just that the Family moved to Mexico because the US would

not allow Polygamy ...... Very strange & interesting!!!

George Romney did try a run for President about 1968... That’s when he was

labeled “Chihuahua George”.

So old Romney might have skeletons in closet & he does not want Donald

Trump asking about Obama’s BC

So this AZ law is pointless?

 

Woese than pointless. It allows obama to submit "other documents", and thus give him the fig leaf he'll need. We've been sold out.

As usual.

Is anyone at all suprised?

>>Put that to him and he will show his BC if it is not true. Wouldn’t you say?<<

No, I wouldn’t say. He’s not going to release any records unless the people of the United States get serious about the Constitution and force it. The pos in the White House is in a pickle. There is no way he can come out ahead by releasing any records. He comes out a liar any way other then hiding the truth. The best he can hope for is obfuscation.
