You asked — “This is interesting, thank you. Now.....another question. It states in our Constitution that a person must me a Naturally Born Citizen. Do the states, as individuals, enforce the US Constition and if not then who? I am beginning to think that Obama was familiar with all this. That’s why he’s not worried about it.”
That’s a real good question, because — apparently — *no one* knows how to *enforce this* in practice... and that’s the problem.
Which then leads me to say that the state laws for Electoral College votes must be instituted for having the candidate prove his qualifications under the Constitution (also in regards to the popular vote, too).
Now..., you were asking if the States “enforce” the Constitution. No, I don’t believe they will enforce it — but — they can certainly take *action* (legally speaking) and put in laws that specify *how* someone can be on the ballot (if they make it the “Constitutional provisions”).
So, if a state does that and then someone sues the state for doing something like that (i.e., *requiring proof* of meeting the Constitutional requirement before placing someone on the ballot) — THEN — the Supreme Court would get involved and have to decide whether that’s a *legitimate function* of the State, with their popular vote and the Electoral College vote.
I believe, that the U.S. Supreme Court would *affirm* that this is entirely within the power of the State to do this...

And in regards to Obama knowing this beforehand..., I’m sure he has the best lawyers that money can buy... :-)
You stated.....*no one* knows how to *enforce this* in practice... and that’s the problem.
Either that or no one wants to enforce it???????? I hate conspiracy theorys but I’m beginning to wonder if this isn’t all a set up.
