There is legislation pending in a few states to require candidates for president & VP to prove their constitutional eligibility before their names can be placed on the ballot:

I've written to my state legislators and the governor about instituting such a law in Texas. It's a shame that there haven't been such checks and balances on this issue before. Perhaps this legislation can become Obama's most important legacy!

The mere act of signing one's name to a contract means he agrees and binds himself to it. The states signed that they had certified him. It was their duty to prove his eligibility. They did not do their job and knowingly committed fraud. They did not protect their citizens and should also be thrown out of office.
