"Don't really need to, just needs to be clarified. Just need the Sec's of State to be told to enforce the constitutional requirement."

And where does clarification come from? What tells the Secretarys of State to check specific documentation? What does enforcing the constitutional requirement mean?

It's the law that does those things, and no law was violated. So change it.

"The old ones are fine. Just enforce it. Which we will, and you are crying crocodile tears that it will sweep the marxist out of power."

But the old ones aren't fine. No law was violated.

But your inability to argue the legal issues without resorting to insults is once again noted.

When you say no law was violated, sounds to me like you believe the current prez what properly vetted by every sec of state. Dang, they could have save the tax payers millions of dollars by showing us their documentation.

Each state has its own laws governing the SOS and the elections boards. Multiple states already have the language in their election laws that allow for them to check the eligibility. I pointed out those laws last week. And obviously, even those without specific vetting requirements have the luxury to vet if a question arises. And have done so on multiple occasions.

Regardless, that will be of import in 2012.

Right now, we will continue to vet your faux president for you. You’re welcome.

You mistake internal regulations and rules for the law. They aren't. The law, the highest law, says what the eligibility criteria are. The law, in some states, tells the SecState to verify those criteria are met before granting ballot access. Exactly how they do that is currently left up to them. But they are supposed to do it. Is there any evidence that any, save perhaps Hawaii, did so? (Hawaii got an affidavit from the Democratic Convention, signed by Pelosi, saying that BHO met the Constitutional criteria. No other state did. So how did those other states, where the Sec State is commanded by the law to verify or vet eligibility, do it? Or did they do it at all? I think not. And for that matter, did the Democratic Convention and/or Pelosi do it? If they did, how? And are they liable for saying he met the criteria, if in the future, it turns out that he did not?

Just Curious.
