PHOENIX -- The Arizona House on Monday voted for a provision that would require President Barack Obama to show his birth certificate if he hopes to be on the state's ballot when he runs for reelection.

The House voted 31-22 to add the provision to a separate bill. The measure still faces a formal vote.

It would require U.S. presidential candidates who want to appear on the ballot in Arizona to submit documents proving they meet the constitutional requirements to be president.

Phoenix Democratic Rep. Kyrsten Sinema said the bill is one of several measures that are making Arizona "the laughing stock of the nation."

Mesa Republican Rep. Cecil Ash said he has no reason to doubt Obama's citizenship but supports the measure because it could help end doubt.

Or Obama could just ignore it since he knows he has no chance of winning Arizona anyway.

Facism is not a school of thought, it is a racial slur.

Isn't there equal doubt about McCain being a natural born citizen, because his birth certificate shows he was born in Colon, Panama, not on a U.S. base in Panama?

It's just that no one is going to attack him as a former war hero as a non-natural born citizen.

Tossing out a seated president on a technicality is only going to result in rioting and chaos. The time for this issue is passed.

No, it really has not. President Obama has gone to great lengths to undermine the Constitution on this matter of law. It really doesn't matter to me where he was born; I am concerned about the damage done to the Rule of Law in this nation. But, thanks for demonstrating why a Constitutional Republic failed this nation: you're more concerned about people being pissed off than upholding the binding covenant of law that created this nation.

The only thing this does is give credance to the idea that Obama detractors hate him because if who he is or isn't as opposed to the issues.

Actually, it's kind of funny in a lot of ways. The document Obama provided is not accepted for passport requests or college applications. You have to provide long forms with official embossed seals.

*A certified birth certificate has a registrar's raised, embossed, impressed or multicolored seal, registrar's signature, and the date the certificate was filed with the registrar's office, which must be within 1 year of your birth. Please note, some short (abstract) versions of birth certificates may not be acceptable for passport purposes.

That statement is an outright lie. Would you like me to scan the one my older brother requested and received less than six months ago? You know, the one he was required to get for his graduate school admissions portfolio?
