He won’t win Illinois anyway.

And just how far back are they legally entitled to go?

You first, Bernie.

When a federal court overturns this, the MSM-Democrats will say he’s “breaking state law.”

NJ has already passed basically the same law, I think.

Further no state can set requirements for a presidential candidate that the constitution does not set.

Please can we just get to cwii sooner rather than later, destroy all the socialists, deport all the lawbreaking illegals and get the country closer to the constitutional republic again?

Tell them they have no constitutional standing, but if they insist, no federal money...and they better pray he doesn’t get re-elected.

I don’t have a problem with this if it covers every elective office in Illinois from city council on up. For just one guy, blow it out yet arse.

You seem to be laboring under the delusion that we live under the rule of law.

We may as well start cwii and be done with this ever radical, ever increasing socialist libtard foolishness.

Its clear they are just going to keep pursuing more absurd and ever increasingly absurd strategies because they are losing, and collectively apoplectically losing their sh1t.

Narrative creation - this is the next fake scandal they’ve moved onto now that Russia was exposed as a hoax.

Assange spilling the beans about Seth Rich and the DNC leak may get them desperate enough to try something stupid.

Although - it is an acknowledgement that Presidential elections are individual state elections and not one national election it is falsely portrayed as being.

Legally questionable, but not for that reason - it isn’t a Federal election - it is a state election created by the state legislature.

Illinois still hasn’t asked Obama to establish any eligibility for the presidency ( he can’t given his daddy)— or for Obama to release ANY documentation at all ( selective service, birth certificate, academic records, a real social security record, or for that matter taxes). Nada.

Yes, but, wasn’t this same thing tried in other states in an effort to force Obama to release his birth certificate and it had no effect?
