What everyone seems to be overlooking is that a state Secretary of State does not need a court ruling to keep an ineligible person off a state ballot!

The SOS would be completely within state constitutional authority to order that person removed from the ballot because of "in the opinion of the office, failure to meet the requirements of Article II of the COTUS." Simple enough.

It would then become the removed person's responsibility to bring suit against the SOS for reinstatement. That simple act would make Team Obama the PLAINTIFF, thus removing all impediments of "standing" to have the case heard. After litigation in the state courts, the appeals, brought by either side would move up the federal ladder and to the SCOTUS ... maneuvering those evasive and cowardly black-robed bum-kissers into finally earning their pay on this issue.

What we need are a few SOS’s with the willingness to do the right thing. With Christy behind Romney, NJ just might do it but I’m not going to hold my breath. I do feel the hand of satan upon this country.

Your strategy sounds wonderful...the concern I have with it is, didn’t Soros’ organizations co-opt a bunch of SOSs by funding radical democrats to those offices?

On the other hand, isnt it true that it would only take one such case to break the log jam? That SOS would indeed have to have a titanium spine. Does such exist?

This is why Soros mounted a program, backed by his money, to get control of all the SoS slots he could. He knows the Bozo is in trouble there.

Living in a republic under Obama:

Like being in a prisoner-of-war camp-—with unarmed guards.
