Missouri Bill to Require Birth Certificates for Presidential Candidates

Ballot Access.org ^ | 3/4/09 | staff

Missouri Representative Wayne Cooper (R-Camdenton) has introduced HJR 34. It has 15 Republican co-sponsors. It requires presidential candidates to submit a Birth Certificate to the Secretary of State, and says a certificate of live birth is not an adequate substitute. It also requires voters to show goverment Photo-ID at the polls, bans same-day registration, says the deadline for registering to vote will always be 4 weeks before an election, abolishes absentee voting unless the voter will be absent from the county or can establish illness, and says no one may be paid to register voters. This would all be one very large amendment to the Missouri State Constitution. The sponsor titles it “The Voter’s Bill of Rights”. Thanks to Brandon Henderson for this news.

Every state in the union needs to do the same.

[listenhillary]

Yes!

Some good may come of this after all, even if Obama managed to slip through.

[Pessimist]

Yay!!

I love that they stipulate that a COLB is not adaquate. Do you think this will get any coverage?

If passed, this would be the end of the crooked 'rats.

More bad news for B.O.'12.

This could give the Zero big trouble in November 2013. Even if only one state has this requirement, it will raise the issue to the front page.

Kinda like closing the barn door after the horse got out...

Except he’ll have to cough it up in 2012.

[smartyaz]

Ok, Obama got a pass in ‘08 but can you imagine him trying to get on the ballot in 2012! Truly great news.

God bless the “show me” state.

Missouri ping

Low volume ping list

FReepmail me to be on, or off, this list.

It might not do us much good this time but next time maybe we can get Obomba to not run.

[WellyP]

Watch for a BIG influx of Obama Attorneys and MONEY to fight this!

[pissant]

Bingo

“...even if Obama managed to slip through.”

If Obama ‘slips through’ we’ll have him for four years. At the rate he is going today he has enough time to ruin this country permanently at the end of his first term.

Thanks for thie ping.

Sounds like Kit Bond is thinking about voting for the new budget bill.

We all need to e-mail him and tell him to vote NO.

[1rudeboy]

Then we need to get off our butts and make sure that it doesn’t happen. People who think Obama will be impeached and removed over this issue are smoking creeper.

[NonValueAdded]

All states should but it will only take one to reject a candidate to raise the alarm.

[visualops]

wow excellent.
