“4.If you are a citizen of the great State of Arizona, you will specifically have standing in terms of being able to enforce this legislation. This, of course, is a pretty big deal, and could, in theory, lead to a class-action status of a multitude of citizens standing up against a given candidate if they do not feel that candidate’s background is sufficiently substantial;”
I just spoke with Carl Seel, the author of AZ’s bill. He’s got the bases covered, and they’re expecting the House to pass it this afternoon.
I didn’t realize that he’s got a subpoena for Obama’s birth certificate ready; he says if Obama sets foot in Arizona he will have jurisdiction to use that subpoena. Too bad he wasn’t able to take advantage of Obama being in AZ for the Tucson pep rally in January.
Anyway, I feel much better after speaking with him. Standing is granted for any citizen to ensure that *anything* in the law is actually enforced - including the “natural born citizen” phrase, and because it allows legislators to challenge eligibility also and they have subpoena power, a judge could not deny access to the critical transaction logs.
Whew! I feel so much better. I’ll be praying with full force that this bill passes and is signed into law quickly.
Then the leftists will challenge it. But the sooner that process gets underway, the more likely there won’t be an injunction against it still in effect next year.
Now if we can get other states to follow suit...
