Which branch of government certifies that B. Hussein Obama, or McCain, is eligible to run for President? This seems like a simple question but I can't find a simple answer.

I believe the answer is "no branch."

When a candidate files to be on the ticket in a state, there should be a section where the candidate affirms his eligibility. The state takes his word for it.

This is how govt "works." It doesn't investigate much of anything unless the powers that be are convinced by outsiders (that would be us) to get off their butts.

P.S. The Federal Election Commission doesnt do anything but stick its nose into the money flow.

***Basically, we are the 4th branch of guvmint. We’re holding it accountable to the truth, right here, right now, as part of the freedom of the press — for as long as that lasts.
