So, if “We the People” established the Constitution, then why don’t “We the People” have standing to ask a Presidential candidate to prove that he meets the Constitutional requirements for office? For the record, I believe Obama was born in Hawaii and could likely defend his qualifications with respect to the other questions in court, but I’m very troubled that the courts seem to be saying that nobody has standing to ask a Presidential candidate to prove they are qualified.

Think it through.

Obama would not have endured and absorbed all of the negative fallout over this issue if he could actually vaporize the issue by producing the vault copy of his original birth certificate.

And, he took all that risk during the campaign, when the issue had the potential to destroy his candidacy. The incentive to produce the vault copy of his BC couldn't have been greater, yet he chose not to produce it.

Why? (insert logic)
