The reason? A number of States have already passed new laws, that are now on their books, requiring every candidate for president to prove their natural born status.

If (as I suspect) these are red states, it won't affect the electoral vote; and Obaama may sue (especially if these states would be enough to change the outcome of the election); holding office in the meantime, as his Merry Men instigate race riots all the while, the better to pressure the opponents into giving up.

See also Odinga, his cousin, for whom he campaigned.

NO cheers, unfortunately.

So you're saying that someone can be elected president without being on the ballot on all 50 States?

Seems doubtful.

What's to prevent the top electoral vote States from getting together and creating unified laws that enable them to elect the president they want, and simply cut out every other State?

No, I think that a candidate for president OF all 50 States must be qualified IN all 50 States, as long as the qualification requirements are limited to simply verifying the Constitutional requirements.

And btw, this won't just stop with the States - there are also Constitutional requirements for verification that were dismissed by Pelosi and Boehner last time, that their positions can be held to this time.
