Yes, but he filed in federal court. An ordinary citizen had standing to challenge Obama’s eligibility by filing in a state court to prevent the Secretary of State from certifying Obama’s name on the ballot. There were no such lawsuits, which speaks to my original point that it isn’t the judiciary’s fault they weren’t presented with a proper case.

I made calls to my SOS and was told there was no way ANYBODY was going to be able to see documentation from Hawaii. The laws didn’t allow for that kind of documentation to be requested, he said. And besides, the media would never lie to us and neither would a politician. We just have to take them at their word.

Leo Donofrio sued to keep Obama’s name off the NJ ballot. Wasn’t there somebody in Washington or Oregon who also sued? Alan Keyes sued in CA.

State judiciaries are a sick, sick joke anyway. At least in Nebraska. The only vote they won’t overturn is a result achieved through corruption or illegalities. All Nebraska requires for placement on the ballot is the certifications of nomination from the national parties. No state lawsuit would ever go anywhere here. And I suspect the same thing is true all over, judging by the responses to the Ohio SOS corruption, Alan Keyes’ battle in CA, Donofrio, Wrotnowski, etc. Federal lawsuits are only necessary when the state won’t even bother to listen to you.

How are your pursuits there in TX going?
