Wikipedia? I use http://www.archives.gov/federal-register/electoral-college/certificates.html And, given that citizens have demonstrated we know how to enact laws governing the conduct of Electors; this means, we know how to enact laws requiring them to vet their choice for President as to Constitutional eligibility BEFORE their election in December. (Plus, we need to rescind those laws requiring Electors to vote for the Party nominee, notwithstanding no ‘faithless’ Elector has ever been penalized under this law for a violation.
If we make criminal the conduct of providing false documents to election officials to establish eligibility to appear on the ballot - assuming we already enacted laws requiring all candidates on the ballot to be eligible for the office - then, we should see fewer people submitting false documents.

In order to prosecute someone for submitting false documents don't you have to prove that a document is false. To date there has been no formal charge, no indictment, no trial and no conviction of anyone for submtting false documents in the 2008 presidential campaign. If there had been a criminal investigation for forgery or fraud concerning the documents used to get on the ballot in any of the 50 states or District of Columbia, then a subpoena could have been issued for the original, vault copy documents and experts could have examined them for a Grand Jury. But no such investigation or indictment occurred. Since the state of Hawaii has vouched for the validity of Obama's birth records, it is probably too late for any such investigation to happen now. STATEMENT BY HEALTH DIRECTOR CHIYOME FUKINO, M.D. I, Dr. Chiyome Fukino, Director of the Hawai‛i State Department of Health, have seen the original vital records maintained on file by the Hawaii State Department of Health verifying Barack Hussein Obama was born in Hawaii and is a natural-born American citizen. I have nothing further to add to this statement or my original statement issued in October 2008 over eight months ago. http://hawaii.gov/health/vital-records/obama.html
