Leo Donofrio and Barack Obama have one thing in common, neither seems to understand very basic elements of Constitutional Law. Something else they have in common - neither has been published in a national law journal. Instead, Donofrio authors essays that appear in blogs or other online publications that can only be described as "fringe". Why is that?

When Donofrio gets published in the Staford or Michigan Law Reviews, perhaps then serious people will start listening. I won't hold my breath.

As it stands, not a single earnest conservative legal group - and there are dozens of such well-respected groups - has taken up this "crusade", not the Federalist Society, not the Thomas More Legal Center, not the Landmark Legal Foundation and not even Judicial Watch. Again, why is that.

Wasn’t it discussed that his registration at 18 for the selective service had been FIXED before one of his elections? I would think if that could be proved it would be great. I was always under the impression you couldn’t hold a govt. job if you had not registered?

While I doubt any type of information is going to make a difference. It would be nice to put on the record another act of fraud.

There are probably a variety of reasons, but they all boil down to indifference in this case to the constitutional requirement. The only "respectable" challenge that I've seen is Andrew McCarthy's comments that it was irresponsible of Congress to blow off the dual citizenship admission, without so much as a "how do you do."
