“but they don’t”
Well, I guess they don’t if you say they don’t...
Does it matter what the constitution says?
Well, I guess they don’t if you say they don’t...
I wasn't saying it based on my own authority, but on the basis of the information that I got from other sources, when I looked it up a few years back. I will have to look up information about them again to post it here. Give it a day for me to research it out again.
Does it matter what the constitution says?
It matters and I haven't found anyone, yet, to this point in time -- where they say that the requirements for office, per the Constitution, doesn't matter. That's never been the issue. The issue has always been that while one group says that Obama doesn't meet the requirements the other group says he does.
That's the problem, not the Constitution.
And that's precisely why I've said, all along (since right after the election) that the only way to solve this problem is to pass state laws making it a requirement for a candidate to show his birth certificate or else he cannot be placed on the ballot.
That bill was going through several states, including mine, where I was also lobbying for that to pass. It didn't pass this session but I've got hopes for it next session in our legislature.
Again, no one has disputed the requirements of the Constitution be upheld. It's been a dispute between "two sides" as to whether it's been met or not. And that's how I have proposed solving it.
