WASHINGTON -- In a revival of the controversy surrounding President Obamas Hawaii birth certificate, a state official in Arizona says its possible that hell hold Obamas name off the Arizona ballot if Hawaii officials dont send him confirmation that the president was born there.
Arizona Secretary of State Ken Bennett, a Republican who is exploring a 2014 race for governor, says he waded into the issue after receiving more than 1,200 emails from people requesting that he verify Obamas birth in Hawaii before placing the presidents name on the 2012 ballot.
First of all, Im not playing to the birthers, Bennett said in a radio interview with KFYI radio host Mike Broomhead. Im not a birther. I believe that the president was born in Hawaii -- or at least I hope he was.
But my responsibility as Secretary of State is to make sure that the ballots in Arizona are correct and that those people whose names are on the ballots have met the qualifications for the office that theyre seeking, he said.
Ever since Obama ran for president in 2008, some critics known as birthers have suggested, without proof, that he was born in Kenya. The Constitution states that only natural-born citizens can serve as president or vice president.
In an effort to put the issue to rest, the Obama campaign in 2008 released a certificate of live birth from the Hawaii Health Department. Still unsatisfied, Obamas detractors demanded release of his original birth certificate, which is not considered a public record under Hawaii law.

You're correct of course, but only in theory....our "lawmakers" are all "lawyers".
End of theory.....
Maybe he could get face time on a milk carton..
Please let it be so.
Obama went Indonesia in 1981 to visit his mother. Unfortunately, his mother was living in Hawaii and divorcing Lolo Soetoro.
So called “Passporters” believe Obama went to Indonesia to renew his Indonesian passport before he went to Pakistan.
Some officials, known as "democrats" have suggested, without proof, that he was born in Hawaii.
Let's see if we can get this straight once and for all: I don't have to prove to them where he was born (Kenya, Mars, whatever). They have to prove to me that he was born in Hawaii. THEY HAVE TO PROVE IT TO US, NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND!!!! So far, they have failed to do so.
Are you in your twenties? Don't you realize what happened the last time POTUS was accused of a crime? Great for FR, but bad for the country.

You are way to late; fraud and embezzlement forgery. If their is justice out of this Obama will spend the rest of his life in prison.
Which President accused of a crime are you referring?
Billy Jeff? Milhouse? or W?
Either way none of them had STOLEN to the extent of the Indonesian.

(Still waiting for Hitler to find out that Obama has a fake BC)
In 1998, they tried to hold Bill Clinton accountable for suborning perjury, lying under oath (meaning of is is, etc). There was tremendous disorder for maybe a year or two. Not good for the country in a not good time.
We are far better off to let the election take out the trash. JMHO.
If Mr. Bennett holds firm, he will be the most courageous politician in America. I don’t think he can stand up to the forces against him; could anyone in this liberal climate?
There ksn't,and he won't; Zimmerman will demonstrate the scope or American "justice". It won't be pretty at all; in fact, a failure of the American people and her institutions.
Good lord I didn’t do that did I?
Their=there
one can’t just hit the spell checker can one, must also read the blasted post. dagnabit
