PHOENIX - The Arizona Senate has approved a revised bill requiring presidential candidates to prove they are U.S. citizens eligible to run for the office. The bill approved Wednesday gives candidates additional ways to prove they meet the constitutional requirements to be president. It was prompted by the ongoing claim by some that there is no proof President Barack Obama was born in the United States and is therefore ineligible to be president. Democrats argued the bill exceeds the state's authority and say state officials are not fully qualified to determine the validity of a candidate's documents. Republicans argue the U.S. Constitution gives state legislatures the right to determine how federal elections are conducted. The bill now goes to the House for a final vote. Earlier this year, ABC15.com asked two state senators to share their opinions on a now defeated "birthright" bill that would have stopped babies born to non-citizen parents from becoming U.S. citizens. State Senator Ron Gould (R) of District 3 said hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants are crossing U.S. border to give birth, using their children as “anchors” to help pull themselves into permanent residency. Gould said we needed to remove the incentive for illegal aliens to cross our borders to have children, simply so they could receive financial benefits in the form of Americans’ hard-earned tax dollars. State Senator Kyrsten Sinema (D) of District 15 said our government codified its long-standing practice of granting citizenship to all born on our soil when the Fourteenth Amendment passed. Sinema said this bill violates the Fourteenth Amendment, and it violates the spirit of our founding fathers’ vision of what makes America the great nation that it is.

Oops, wrong category.
I wonder if this will be suspended by the 9th Circus Court of Schlemiels, like the border bill? More importantly, how much more will Americans tolerate?
Actually, I feel sorry for you, yu-klown. Growing up with Sally as a mother would probably turn anyone queer.
It's way past time the people tossed those with the 9th circus court.
Oops, wrong category. It'll have to do, until Stone adds a "Kenyan Invasion" category.
I recall a re-run of MASH I saw where this uber right winger named Colonel Flagg... So now Obama has to prove his citizenship. My bet is Obama uses his printout. Then a court will have to decide it. Either way bad for Obama. He is off the ballot. Or he has to spend money fighting it in court. Which also makes him look bad not being able to provide a real birth certificate, and spending money so he doesn't have to show one.
I don't see it that way Stone. I just think its like Kerry's military records that have never been released. There is something 'in there' thats highly embarrassing, and probably politically damaging, if not devastating. Like his religion at birth being 'muslim'.
I hear you knockin...go back where you been....
