If Barack Obama wants to run for re-election he would need to produce proof of both his U.S. birth and citizenship to get on the ballot in Arizona, at least under a measure being pushed by a state legislator.

This should be a no brainer. All of the states should have such laws on the books. The theory is the states, not the popular vote, elects the president.

This is a great move, but they also need to require all presidential and VP candidates to also produce their college transcripts and full medical records.

There’s already a law about it. He’ll just ignore this one, too.

Someone still has guts in this country. If JD Hayworth does not run against Juan McShame then maybe this lady will run or Sheriff Joe.

Ahhh..., good news... Arizona tries it again. It was Arizona, Texas, Oklahoma and Missouri before.

I still don’t know about Oklahoma this time around...

A while back you said you set your computer to notify you “automatically” when new pings come in.

How do I do that?

Thanks.

“There’s already a law about it. He’ll just ignore this one, too.”

What law? The Constitution has no enforcement mechanism for Presidential eligibility. The Congress has the job by default because it counts the Electoral Votes.

This law, if well written, bypasses that and requires documentation to be submitted to the state.

How do I do that?

Where it has this across the top of your webpage (when on Free Republic)... to the right of the "Sign Out"... you'll see a little symbol there, just click on it... :-)

Or maybe THIS will do it...
