Proper Tea Party Attire:

3 more states, South Carolina, New Hampshire and Indiana have joined Arizona in proposing bills requiring proof of Article II Eligibility for POTUS. Does this mean this is no longer a crazy, fringe conspiracy theory movement?
Snippets from Washington Independent; ‘Birther’ Conspiracy Roils GOP Campaigns - State Legislators, Party Strategists Keep Anti-Obama Rumors Alive -
South Carolina-Bill 3389, freshman state Rep. Tommy Stringer has introduced legislation that would amend the state’s election code to make sure that “a candidate for President or Vice President of the United States may not have his name printed on a ballot in this State unless there is conclusive evidence that he is a natural born citizen of the United States.”…
New Hampshire’s House bill 1245, mandates that “the names of the candidates shall not appear on the ballot unless the secretary of state has received certified copies of the birth certificates of the candidates.”
Indiana’s Senate bill 82, grapples with the legal standing issue that has vexed “birthers,” granting the right to challenge qualifications to “a registered voter of the jurisdiction conducting the election.”… …more from the Obot’s HERE.
Arizona House bill 2441, titled: presidential candidates; proof of qualifications
…Within ten days after submittal of the names of the candidates, the national political party committee shall submit an affidavit of the presidential candidate in which the presidential candidate states the candidate’s citizenship and age and shall append to the affidavit documents that prove that the candidate is a natural born citizen, prove the candidate’s age and prove that the candidate meets the residency requirements for President of the United States as prescribed in article II, section 1, Constitution of the United States… …view entire Arizona bill HERE.
Other states are also joining the war to defend our constitution. According to the National Conference of State Legislatures; New York, Virginia, Georgia and other states are also working on the same type legislation. …more HERE.
Also, let us not forget the federal bill proposed by Bill Posey of Florida; H.R.1503 - Presidential Eligibility Act -
To amend the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971 to require the principal campaign committee of a candidate for election to the office of President to include with the committee’s statement of organization a copy of the candidate’s birth certificate, together with such other documentation as may be necessary to establish that the candidate meets the qualifications for eligibility to the Office of President under the Constitution…
…Congress finds that under - the Constitution of the United States, in order to be eligible to serve as President, an individual must be a natural born citizen of the United States who has attained the age of 35 years and has been a resident within the United States for at least 14 years. …view entire bill HERE.
Thanks hennie pennie.
We will then see a Honduras solution here!!!
Granted, but all it will take is one state. Wouldn’t it be interesting if a sitting President could only run on the ballot in 49 (or 56) states? I think even the MSM might pick up on that.
Citizens of all of these States MUST push their lawmakers to make this happen, NOW, WITHOUT DELAY!
The New Hampshire bill, which passed the House on Wednesday, says nothing about providing certified copies of a birth certificate to the SoS. It simply changes the language of the declaration of candidacy and declaration of intent.
the founding fathers defined Natural born citizens in the congressional records as CHILDREN OF CITIZENS SHALL BE CONSIDERED NATURAL BORN
the Supreme Court defined Natural Born Citizens as CHILDREN WHOSE PARENTS ARE U.S. CITIZENS there is no question to the meaning of Natural Born Citizens( both parents U.S. citizens) The progressives want it “reclarified” so that they can change it.
I was referring to the argument that it is not defined in the Constitution, I’m well aware of the definition can be found in other locations.
Dems/Libs like to interpret, so you have to nail down an exact definition when you get the opportunity. These resolutions would be a great time to do that. Make it a State definition, for election purposes, and let the SCOTUS fight it later. At least it would get the argument out in the open for debate.
Oh, he'll run alright - but there'll be a crowd chasing him with torches and pitchforks.
Proper Tea Party Attire:
So far, we have no one to oppose him. And the Democrats have no one else to run.
we have 2 1/2 years to get a Writ of Quo Warranto and make it stick.
i think hugo chavez, i mean barry obama will have destroyed our great country by then- i think this is all alittle to late.. something needs to be done now
Are ABC, CBS, NBC, FactCheck, and N.Y. Times ‘birthers’ too?

Eligibility issue was huge in 2008 when Obama opponent was focus of attention
Darn straight it does! Obama’s secrecy has led to SEVEN states passing new laws. That’s what’s crazy. We have soldiers who feel constitutionally obligated to ingore his command. They are wrong, but that’s not the point — they’re confused and mistrustful. Who the heck can blame them?
More coming up.
I’m so proud of Arizona for doing this!
Tigerseye has a list of just how secretive the left’s president is:
0bamas’ hidden records: Why are these off limits?
1 Certified copy of original birth certificate
2 Columbia University transcripts
3 Columbia thesis paper
4 Campaign donor analysis requested by 7 major watchdog groups
5 Harvard University transcripts
6 Illinois State Senate records
7 Illinois State Senate schedule
8 Law practice client list and billing records/summary
9 Locations and names of all half-siblings and step-mother
10 Medical records (only the one page summary released so far)
11 Occidental College Transcripts
12 Parent’s marriage Certificate
13 Record of baptism
14 Selective Service registration records
(Did Obama Actually Register for Selective Service? This supposed revelation of 0’s SS records has been debunked. Check with tigerseye who showed me this list.)
15 Schedules for trips outside of the United States before 2007
16 Passport records for all passports
17 Scholarly articles
18 SAT and LSAT test scores
19 Access to his grandmother in Kenya
20 List of all campaign workers that are lobbyists
21 Punahou grade school records
22 Noelani Kindergarten records are oddly missing from the the State of Hawaii Department of Education.
23 Page 11 of Stanley Ann Dunham’s divorce decree.
24 Why did Barack Obama resign from the Illinois bar and where are all of the relevant documents?
25 Why did Michelle Obama resign from the Illinois bar after only about four years of practice and where are all of the relevant documents?
[Compare this with someone’s background check to visit the White House or to work in a missile plant.]

Zero has chosen a very interesting law firm to represent him in certifigate:
Perkins Coie
http://yesbuthowever.com/perkins-coie-massachusetts-8136453
“The firm has successfully navigated close elections for Minnesota Senator Al Franken [recounted until it was ‘right’], Washington Governor Christine Gregoire and helped bend [break] election laws in New Jersey to benefit Senator Frank Lautenberg in 2002.”
“New Coach” Comparison:
Such a question to remain festering is inexcusable in a leader. A team sees some guy walking into the locker room claiming to be their new coach. Next to the ‘coach’ is a mobster and a thug [Ayers and Rezco].
How much should they trust this ‘coach’? Is it their fault if they wonder?
The coach says, “I was sent here by the other team.” [Annenberg vetting Obama]. Such ‘leadership’.
The [Terrorist loving] Hippies Who “Certified” Obama
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/bloggers/2454752/posts?page=36#36
http://www.theobamafile.com/_eligibility/AnnenbergFactCheckers.htm
Obama was vetted by Annenberg. But they have a history of being cronies and sugerdaddies for Obama AND unrepentent terrorist, Bill Ayers. Obama and the terrorist had Annenberg offices near each other. Annenberg is the best the DNC could come up with to vet their candidate or Commander in Chief. Bill Ayers was a sworn enemy of US soldiers.
[And that’s just the tip of the iceberg. There is a huge army of intellectuals who signed a petition on behalf of the unrepentent terrorist. Bill Ayers, the bomb terrorist who recently said he “didn’t do enough”, and exhaustively reported to be the ghost writer and friend of Obama.]
Yeah, so don’t vet a DNC candidate unless you are his sugardaddy and crony with terrorists.

The coach hires a lawyer to hide his past from the team.
*** Note that not all of Zero’s law tab to Perkins Coie is related to certifigate. ***
Obama law tab up to $1.4 million

“He used DOJ attorneys! These attorneys are paid by the U.S. taxpayer! And...He distracted these DOJ attorneys from the important work of keeping Americans safe!” — wintertime
Not that the actual amount matters. McCain showed his birth certificate and that ended the controversy.

4 Supreme Court Cases define “natural born citizen”
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/2470873/posts?page=66
[The Supremes themselves already interpreted “natural born citizen” status.]
It’s looking like a grim future for after-birthers.
FRegards ....
The questions that won’t go away are the reason he keeps signing Exec Orders and expounding on laws he wants passed that are unconstitutional. He’s under the delusion that it makes him more powerful and the serfs(kaffirs) will believe they must obey...
government takeover of healthcare is unconstitutional. It will not stand up in the Supreme Court.
If these states do not pass these bills, then the whole country is corrupt.
I want to hear the argument anyone would think that these bills are a bad idea.
Oh man you’ll hear ‘em all right.
Just turn on CNN MSNBC and the others
I agree. He’s already dropped some hints about being a one termer. He’ll come up wth some excuse like his kids want to move back, or he’s tired of his family being criticized, something. He can’t and won’t ever release all of his records
That’s what I think too.
