  1. No doubt the NYT is biased liberal and Fox is the mouthpiece for thr right.

    Precedent has bearing as SCOTUS judges are partially bound by these rulings.

    I agree this will be decided by the Supremes and IMO, they will uphold it.

    Hello

    Good god, where do you even begin with a statement like this......So the solution to too many people getting a free ride is to give them an entitlement where by they get a free ride?

    Arizona gov. vetoes presidential 'birther' bill



    PHOENIX – Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer on Monday vetoed a bill that would have required President Barack Obama and other presidential candidates to prove their U.S. citizenship before their names could appear on the state's ballot.

    The bill would have made Arizona the first state to pass such a requirement. Opponents had warned the bill would give another black eye to Arizona after last year's controversy over the state's illegal immigration enforcement law.

    Brewer said in her veto letter that she was troubled that the bill empowered Arizona's secretary of state to judge the qualifications of all candidates when they file to run for office.

    "I do not support designating one person as the gatekeeper to the ballot for a candidate, which could lead to arbitrary or politically motivated decisions," said Brewer, who was secretary of state until she became governor in 2009.

    "In addition, I never imagined being presented with a bill that could require candidates for president of the greatest and most powerful nation on Earth to submit their 'early baptismal circumcision certificates' among other records to the Arizona secretary of state," she said. "This is a bridge too far."
