PHOENIX (AP) — Arizona officials are jumping back into a persistent, yet debunked controversy over President Barack Obama's birth certificate and his eligibility to hold office. A legislative committee on Wednesday endorsed a proposal that requires presidential candidates to swear that they meet the qualifications to be the nation's chief executive. ...

In the past, political parties drafted their own certification documents that Arizona officials say didn't consistently address the issue of qualifications.

"There has been a lot of media attention devoted to this, so we wanted to make sure there is a standardized form," said Matthew Roberts, a spokesman for Arizona Secretary of State Ken Bennett...

"into a persistent, yet debunked controversy over President Barack Obama's birth certificate"

Debunked by whom ? The public has yet to see it, aside from some forged copy "released" after enormous pressure was brought to bear.

You are preaching to the choir - ignore AP writer's bias and read new facts about efforts to verify Obama's eligibility.

The following excerpt is very interesting:

"The latest legislative effort in Arizona to confront Obama's eligibility would require political parties to file an affidavit swearing under penalty of perjury that their presidential and vice presidential candidates are qualified to hold the positions. It also would let any voter in Arizona file a lawsuit challenging an affidavit."

personally, i see the birth certificate as the classic red herring, since they could easily come up with a forged document (which they have). i believe they have done this to provide distraction from the real issue...

supreme court case: minor v happersett (1874)

“The Constitution does not in words say who shall be natural-born citizens. Resort must be had elsewhere to ascertain that. At common law, with the nomenclature of which the framers of the Constitution were familiar, it was never doubted that all children born in a country of parents who were its citizens became themselves, upon their birth, citizens also. These were natives or natural-born citizens, as distinguished from aliens or foreigners.”

his father was never a US citizen... and therefore, at best, 0bama is just a US citizen.

but no matter how you look at it... he is NOT a natural born citizen and being on the ballot would be unConstitutional and would perpetuate a fraud on the American public

'Hawaii officials have regularly verified Obama's citizenship, and the White House released a copy of the president's long-form birth certificate in April in an attempt to quell the issue. Courts also have rebuffed lawsuits over the issue.'

Funny, AP, ya can't even get your facts right. Obama requested his Certificate of Live Birth be released, and 'it' was. Not a 'long-form birth certificate' as stated.

The MSM always plays that trick when some mortal dares to question their God BHO. They flat out lie right at the top then move on without offering any explanation or proof. They pull this sh*t all the time in interviews as well “The birth certificate has been validated as authentic now let’s move on....” And when the person being interviewed says “Wait a minute, validated by who?” they are interupted and not allowed to get two words in.

The Diversion Continues.

Even if Barry Soetoro aka Barack Hussein Obama had been birthed in the Lincoln Bedroom of the White House Obama is NOT a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN.

Notice, too, like a DNC talking point memo, they also similarly make a "debunked" statement on Zero's religious status whenever us rubes decide to question him on it (if he's a Christian, I'm Mary Poppins). Let's face it, kids, this "President" was never vetted at all. We know less about this man than any other person in the history of the office. We don't know where he was born. We don't know about his education. We know nothing about his family, his influences and his affiliations. (Yet conversely, the media gang-raped a Vice-Presidential candidate, her family, her supporters, et al, opposed to their agenda, literally dispatching hordes to dumpster-dive in a tiny Alaskan community).

That this was allowed to happen is the greatest black mark against our national media in the history of the United States, absolutely without equal (how absurd when even the internationally notorious Pravda, the former Communist-Soviet mouthpiece, was blown away by our national media and their thorough (willful) failures). A thoroughly unknown radical who likely couldn't even receive a government security clearance as a civilian allowed to inhabit the highest office in our country. Outrageous.

I’ve been thinking more and more about this and find it curious, that with the background checks Congressmen go through, the FBI must have known that he had numerous SSN and a forged selective service registration card. They must have seen his school records, and the Occidental College records would have clearly shown he was a foreign student.

The conclusion I’ve drawn is that he may have been on the witness protection program, but discarded that quckly.

More likely he worked for the CIA as both his grandparents worked for the CIA. That is how SADO came to meet her two husbands. Her father was a handler dealing with promising young college men from foreign lands who would later join their governments and report back to an agent of the very nation which paid for their education.

I used to read CIA reports when working for NAVSECGRU, and they were frequently from some mid-level bureaucrat in a foreign government who had been educated in the U.S.

There is a nice family photo of the Dunham family taken about 1950 - 1952, and shows Stanley Ann wearing a school uniform with the insignia to an exclusive private girls school in Lebanon. Well, Stanley Armour Dunham must have been assigned to the Embassy in Beirut. I truly doubt a furniture salesman’s wife would be so nicely dressed and the daughter wearing an exclusive Lebanese school uniform in Kansas!

There is something here we are all missing in this situation, and at this point I’m certain it involves national security. Could Obama be blackmailing the Federal government?

Source? I've never seen that photo, and I've followed this closely.

it is a mystery to me why Obama’s enemies in high places haven’t been able to make hay out of his questionable background.

I cannot see how this bill does much. If it allows a lawsuit, that lawsuit cannot be initiated until after the fact, which would be September. Too late. The court case would drag on until after the election. Some states needed to kick him off the primary ballot and make BHO the plaintiff.

There is either high level blackmail or a major terrorist threat going on. Classic corruption stinks, but this one is way over the top, like being confined in a jail cell with a pissed off skunk.

So they “swear” that Buckwheat is eligible.(We all know he is not), then what? He swore to uphold the constitution too but he has failed to keep that promise as well.

IMPEACH or REMOVE THE BAST%RD!

Is this photo available publicly?

yet debunked controversy over President Barack Obama’s birth certificate and his eligibility to hold office.

Really? WHO debunked it? How did they debunk it? Why if it has been debunked are several States still looking into this?
