I am not a 'birther', but I would think that Alan Keyes would have the met the "standing requirements" setforth by Jones V Bush.

Unfortunately a challenge by a former presidential candidate carries the backage of looking like a political attack. Better to have an ordinary citizen behind it.

Keye should have standing but the 9th circus court ruled that he because the lawsuit was filed AFTER Obama was sworn, then he was no longer a candidate at that point, and therefore no longer had any potential for legal standing. Yes, I know, it’s a retarded ruling, but the Supreme Court upheld it by failing to accept the case.

Why do I think Sotomayor & Kagan did not recuse themselves in the decision - despite the fact that a decision might have eliminated their positions? (sarc)
