Arizona Secretary of State Ken Bennett is threatening to keep President Obamas name off the states ballot in November unless he receives confirmation from Hawaii that it has a valid birth certificate on file for him.
Bennett, who spoke to (Arizona radio host Mike Broomhead) Thursday, said he requested the confirmation eight weeks ago and has not gotten it. Hawaii, he said, does not have to supply a certified copy of the birth certificate, merely send him an email confirming that it has one.
Asked by Broomhead if he would remove Obamas name from the ballot if Hawaii fails to comply, Bennett said: Thats possible. Or the other option would be that I would ask all the candidates, including the president, to submit a certified copy of their birth certificate.
Despite overwhelming evidence that Obama was born in Hawaii, the issue of his birth continues to dog him. Thursday, (Breitbart Big Government reported) on a promotional booklet by Obamas own literary agency listing him as having been born in Kenya.
Mike
Now if we could get romney off the ticket & a real conservative on.
Obama will be on the AZ ballot. This nonsense can only boost Democratic turnout.
These dog and pony shows are getting tiresome.
They'll lie on cue.
They would accept an "email confirming that they have one (a valid file-copy of Obama's BC)? Sheesh! That's an awfully low bar for Hawaii to meet. I mean haven't they aready said as much in public. How much worse can it be if the keeper of records just shoots an email?
Don’t threaten, just quietly do it.
There are easily 300,00 diehard liberals in AZ, some of the elderly would be old-style Udall backers.
Overwhelming evidence?
It’s under a cloud as far as I’m concerned,
all that’s being asked is for state assurance
of a birth certificate not even producing it.
Ha Ha!! ...and here in the state of Oregon, if I am pulled over, I do not not have to produce a drivers license. I just tell the cop “don’t worry, I have one”.
If he’s not then they can turn out all they like with no one to vote for!
Here is a chance for Romney to get ahead by
sending a state certified copy of his BC to
Arizona saying he just wants to set the record
straight.
John McCain has already stated that Obama would be on the ticket, and he is nsver wrong.
>>I wonder why no one in Hawaii officialdom is stepping up? Hmmmm!<<
I’m reading on Drudge Report that Hawaii has responded to AZ.

“They’ll lie on cue.”
One would think so. However, it’s one thing for various Hawaiian officials to say Obama was born in Hawaii, it’s quite another to attest to same as part of an official election inquiry from another state. If they are smart they will realize his biography is slowly unraveling and that anyone who lies on his behalf could face criminal charges. When the truth is finally known, the top-level colluders like Nancy Pelosi will rush to point fingers at unknowns from Hawaii.
Obama’s lawyer admits certificate is a forgery.

Bennett is a good pal of Arpaio. Bennett wants to run for governor next time. It has been eight weeks since his request was made. No response yet despite the low bar.
The problem for Hawaii is that some official will have to sign his or her name to such a certification making him/her legally liable if subsequent investigations find this to be false.
Arpaio's Cold Case Posse has said the WH released BC is a forgery. They have said that they have identified a person of interest in this case. Perhaps. Bennett and Arpaio are working together. They want Hawaii to provide a simple certification signed by an official, which they can then use to pursue criminal charges. The longer Hawaii waits to provide this simiple certification, the more suspect all of this becomes.
I wonder why no one in Hawaii officialdom is stepping up?

For the same reason I would not loan you $10,000. I don’t have it.
Officials of one State lying to another would be a Federal crime. Who would bring the charges?

John McCain is a suck a** who has a witch for a wife and for a daughter.
If his biography finally comes unraveled our government will be crisis mode. In order to regain trust in the system, wouldn’t the next president be forced to support a special prosecutor who would bring charges against those involved in the Obama-conspiracy?
I’m not predicting that, but it’s possible. I see nothing precluding Arizona charges as well. If I were an official in Hawaii I would not want to rely on the current corrupt regime to protect me from legal jeopardy.

What is this “overwhelming evidence”??????????
And if all they have to do is say yes, there is a birth certificate (and not have to actually show it), why not just do that?
LIARS and FRAUDS
“Officials of one State lying to another would be a Federal crime. Who would bring the charges? “
Good point.
Wonder if a situation like this would allow for a civil suit.
Anyway, as said before, it’s one think to say he’s a resident. It’s a completely different think to sign on the dotted line and vouch for it. A lot of people support things until their own ass is on the line. Especially true of progressives.
In theory, but in reality I doubt it. I think they'll just ignore the fact that every law and regulation for four years is illegitimate and go right back to what they were doing.
In order to regain trust in the system, wouldnt the next president be forced to support a special prosecutor who would bring charges against those involved in the Obama-conspiracy?
I don't think the bureaucracy any longer cares about 'trust in the system.' They'll just do what is necessary to perpetuate the myth, which is what they've been doing since Nixon ignored a stolen election.
I see nothing precluding Arizona charges as well.
Arizona has no jurisdiction for filing charges for a crime committed in Hawaii.
If I were an official in Hawaii I would not want to rely on the current corrupt regime to protect me from legal jeopardy.
"But my pension..."
They'll do it and 'they'll be taken care of.'
Prove me wrong, Mr. Tough Guy AG.
Prove us wrong, Mr. Tough Guy AG.
Not one official in all Hawaii is willing to certify Obama’s Hawaiian birth, not even their new commie governor Abercrombie who specificially said, “There are no birth documents for Obama in the Hawaiian vaults.” The don’t want to go to jail for falsifying by confirming, even. They will stonewall Arizona’s SOS...they’re already doing it by questioning his need for the document. They think by demanding that Arizona SOS’s need for proof that eventually he will have no Arizona law or regulations to back him up. I sure hope the Arizona SOS can find something that backs his ability to call for proof.
Even the DNC Hawaii would not certify to the Hawaiian SOS that Obama was qualified to serve. Nancy Pelosi herself had to sign a fraudulent statement and send it to the Hawaiian SOS to get Obama on the ballot.
Saying it is one thing. When someone attaches their name to it, everything can change. Someone will have to identify with that email.

Why, Eric Holder...of course!
Nor are special prosecutors ever appointed without hue and cry from the MSM. It won't happen.

Can’t verify what you don’t have. Nobody at the records dept wants to perjure themselves.
"Despite overwhelming underwhelming evidence that Obama was born in Hawaii, the issue of his birth continues to dog him."
Better.
Whaaaaaaaa this? Nooooo one at the Hawaiian Department of Health wants to go on official record by falling on thier sword for their king?? Why, no trust between these thieves? ;-0)
They don’t have a long-form, hospital-generated birth certificate for Obama. An affidavit was signed stating that by the man who was in charge of HI elections.
http://www.wnd.com/2011/01/254401/
What are they going to do? They’re up crap creek without a paddle (pardon my French, please).
Hawaii is still waiting for that mythical flying stork to pooop out an Obama birf certificate. Yeah, that’s the ticket.
If this news report is accurate and complete (an unlikely miracle in itself,) this guy is showboating.
Up to now, such requests have been answered with, "Yes we confirm that we do have a birth certificate on file," without even a clumsy attempt to provide credible proof, or authentication by independent experts. Caarying about as much value as Nancy Pelosi, with no real knowlege or proof, merely stating that Obama was totally qualified.
It may be simply a desperate attempt at hiding gross incompetence in record-keeping on the part of Hawaii, or the more sinister "C" word.
It's a useless exercise as reported.
I DO believe that the qualifications for voting and candidacy is and should always remain a State function. The request is both legal and reasonable.
Class of 2005 Obamabot.
Class of 2009 Obamabot
Obama was on the ballot in Arizona. If he was on it fraudulently, that fraud happened in Arizona.
The original post was about an official in Hawaii defrauding an official from Arizona. The fraud occurred where it was perpetrated and the victim was in another State. That interstate attribute makes it a Federal crime.
Hey KB, I wonder if Mr. Tough Guy AG received this document from Obama for 2012?


Hello Hawaii anyone home? I don't think so.
servant: “Im reading on Drudge Report that Hawaii has responded to AZ.”
Did you read your own link? The story says that HDOH response is that they don’t have to respond.....
The SoS of AZ now has no choice. Barack Hussein Obama, Jr, (or II) must be removed from the ballot. If this AZ fellow needs another excuse, the fact that BHO, Jr. was forcd off the Illinois Bar for neglecting to reveal aliases, among other lapses, really ought to be all the excuse the AZ man needs to remove him from the ballot.
We actually have no LEGAL idea who the guy is.
Can the AZ governor issue an exec order mandating that proof of eligibility be shown before a name can appear on the ballot?
I know that many people change their signatures as they get older, but the two Obama signatures look so different to me that they look like two different persons signed the two documents.
I wish that we could find a sample of Obama's signature from Obama's high school or his college days so that we could compare it to his 1980s Selective Service signature.
NOTE: Girlfriends: I wonder if one of Obama's past girlfriends---the ones we recently read about---would have a sample of Obama's signature, say, on a card or a love letter.
Is there a copy of Obama's 2011 or 2012 Arizona presidential application form on the internet?
I dunno the answer to that. I’ve got a call into our Texas SOS’s office to ask some questions...don’t know what kind of answer I’ll get.
It’s just a wait and see what happens in Arizona. I hope their SOS has the guts to see it through and use every piece of his authority to do so.
I see your point. Thanks.
