And by the way, I am not asking to SUE. I am asking that a candidate PRODUCE legal documentation that he is indeed a citizen, as REQUIRED under the Constitution of the United States.

The fact that he did not do so due to a breakdown in communication, bureaucracy or whatever is not important.

The fact that Barack Obama REFUSES to produce proof that he meets the Constitutional requirements of the office says more about him and his followers than it does about me or anyone else who agrees with me.

I will ask again, differently: If required by a court to produce evidence and is unable to do so, should Barack Obama be allowed to take office? Can we overlook the guidelines of the Constitution, just this once?

I was surprised to discover that no state requires this sort of proof before the candidate is placed on the ballot. Indeed, Obama may have found a loophole. But, I don't think we can change our entire system of laws to try to get him out of office. The reasons for requiring standing are well proven and help avoid anarchy, which is a goal of the far Left.

A more productive route in my opinion, is to work to change the laws in the various states so that Mr. Obama will have to demonstrate eligibility before he can be placed on the 2012 ballot.
