Perhaps this article on America’s Ruling Class can explain it to you.

Nope. That was irrelevant to the issues under discussion in this thread.

George Washington, James Madison, John Adams, and Thomas Jefferson were all members of America’s ruling class in the late 18th and early 19th Centuries. They did just fine by the nation. Barack Obama is far from being a member of America’s ruling class, the son of an itinerant anthropologist from Kansas and an African foreign exchange student.

I did a bit of research and found a better explanation for
Pelosi, the DNC and the story of the two letters of Certification

Canada Free Press made much of the discovery that Nancy Pelosi and the DNC, sent two kinds of letters to the States to certify candidates for the presidency and vice-presidency. They claim that only one, the abridged form, was submitted to (all) the States, but we know that at least Hawaii, which has very specific requirements, received the “unabridged version”.

Most of the discovery of actual certification documents comes from lawsuits against the Secretary Of State of various states and there have been various state case filings that shed additional light on this issue. There have been filings in Hawaii, Texas, South Carolina and Washington which are relevant.

In fact, there appear to be not just 2 documents but perhaps as many as 50 different documents, probably because every state would like an original, notarized document. The Washington State document and the South Carolina document for example are two different documents as can be determined by completely different signatures on them.

There may very well have been 49 letters, and then an additional one, to deal with the special requirements of Hawaii. Then again, the Republican National Committee similarly had 50 separate letters be sent to their state headquarters for filing.

The “unabridged” version states:
“THIS IS TO CERTIFY that at the National Convention of the Democrat Party of the United States of America, held in Denver, Colorado on August 25 though 28, 2008, the following were duly nominated as candidates of said Party for President and Vice President of the United States respectively and that the following candidates for President and Vice President of the United States are legally qualified to serve under the provisions of the United States Constitution:

The “abridged version” states:

“THIS IS TO CERTIFY that at the National Convention of the Democrat Party of the United States of America, held in Denver, Colorado on August 25 though 28, 2008, the following were duly nominated as candidates of said Party for President and Vice President of the United States respectively: Presented in: South Carolina, South Dakota, Texas, Washington.

So how to explain the difference in text? Its simple really…different States have different requirements for the certification. For example, we know that the letter with the complete text was sent to Hawaii. We also know that the example of the abridged text was filed in South Carolina. During the complete election cycle, and depending on the specific state laws, a candidate files a “declaration of candidacy” to run in the primaries of the State in question. Once selected in the primaries, the state representative of the Party in question files a “certification of candidates” which verifies that the candidate meets the requirements of the State to run for office.

Let’s look at some of the “declarations of candidacy” filed by President Obama

Declaration of Candidacy: New Hampshire

The document signed by Mr Obama states that he meets the qualifications for the office of the President of the United States and is a registered member of the Democratic Party. Dec 1, 2008

Illinois: “I, Barack Obama, …. that I am a candidate for nomination to the office President of the United States of America,…, and that I am legally qualified (including being the holder of any license that may be an eligibility requirement for the office I seek the nomination for) to hold such office”

Kentucky and Arizona:

“You are hereby notified that I, Barack Obama, am seeking nomination as a candidate for the office of President of the United States from the Democratic Party, at the Presidential Preference Election to be held on the 5th day of February 2008. I am a natural born citizen of the United States, am at least thirty-five years of age, and have been a resident within the United States for at least fourteen years.”

The bottom line is that any state COULD have filed election fraud charges if there was a legitimate legal issue. No state’s Chief Election Official (usually a Secretary of State) has filed those charges or even launched an investigation.
