So either way you look at it, I think SCOTUS needs to step up the plate

It would be interesting but I doubt it will ever happen.

Found a great site to find your State Representatives and Senators: State Legislatures Internet Links

Just click your State on the left and then Legislators on the right and Presto, there's all your state Representative and Senators with email addresses!

I guess if a felon is running for president, then they just are not allowed to vote for themselves or their opponent :)

If Ahmadinijead's wife is pregnant, he flies her over here, the baby is born on US soil, he/she could be President?

That would be up to the voters.

1) They are afraid of being called racist.

2) The current occupant of the White House is a Democrat.

3) Republicans have the collective gonads the size of one dust mite. ( Sorry, to insult dust mites.)

You can be certain that if the current occupant of the White House were a white Republican with the same history, that this would have been heard by the courts, widely broadcast by the media, and corrected by congress within a few weeks.

problem is that such laws exist already in reality. NJ for example allowed a man who was not a us citizen on the ballot with a green card.
The Secretary of each state has the reproducibility to verify the candidate before they are put on a ballot in their state.

What would be most beneficial at this point is a clear understanding by everyone of what exactly a “natural born citizen” is.
Obama himself never claimed to be a “natural born citizen”, but rather a “native citizen” on his fight the smears web page for example.

I defer to fellow FReeper Beckwith for his excellent summary of what a Natural Born Citizen is: Natural Born Citizen

There are other sites that delve into this also, but I think his is the clearest and hits the nail on the head.

I know what a NBC is, but somewhere this has been lost in translation.
This is what the SOS needs to be aware of in no uncertain or trems that can not be twisted.

Then they have to follow the rules which they did not.
