As a EE and aerospace engineer by education and experience, Stearns is taking the correct, logical stand on the forensic evidence, which ultimately will be scientific and not political...just like the spume on the blue dress! Just as we had to wait for the DNA to come back on the stain, we must wait for Barry's original SSSR form and LFBC documents to be examined.
IMO, any genuine conservative would do exactly what Stearns is doing, i.e. wait for the results of the Arpaio investigation. Arpaio, himself, is waiting for the results of his own incomplete investigation.
From Stearns Wiki page:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cliff_Stearns
“According to his official biography,[2] Stearns was born in Washington, D.C., educated at Woodrow Wilson High School, and later earned a degree in electrical engineering from George Washington University. He is also a member of Gamma Beta Chapter of Theta Tau at GW. He participated in the Air Force Reserve Officer Training Corps at GW and was honored as the Air Force ROTC Distinguished Military Graduate.
“Following graduation, he served four years in the United States Air Force as an aerospace engineer in satellite reconnaissance during the Vietnam War.”
Right now, today, the AG of AZ would be completely justified in throwing Obama off the AZ Ballot. In fact, it is the man's job.
Any reasonable person would have to concede that there is doubt ... or at least call it "some legitimate concern" ... as to Obama's bona fides. Take him off the ballot. Let him come forward as a PLAINTIFF. Have court-appointed experts examine the documents in question. Win lose or draw, that case would go SCOTUS and we can have our questions answered ... maybe not the way we want ... but we can't run the country this way, as we all can see.
Stearns? Don't know the guy, but he could be playing to the gallery. The AZ AG OTOH, needs no one's permission to do his job of vetting candidate qualifications.
He’s had four long years to do his own investigation.
