Bill Passed to Require Proof of Citizenship
By Ashley Loera Published: April 18, 2011
The Arizona State Legislature approved a bill Thursday that would require presidential candidates to prove they are American citizens before they are put on the ballot.
The measure arises amidst the current controversy over President Barack Obama’s birth certificate and its legitimacy. Critics contend Obama was born in his father’s home country of Kenya simply because the document does not list the doctor and hospital’s name.
The legislation, if signed by Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer, would keep Obama off the ballots in Arizona for the presidential race of 2012. Fourteen other states are considering similar legislation this year, according to a senior fellow with the National Conference of State Legislature.
Donald Trump is a big supporter of the bill, as he has been making headlines recently asking for additional proof of Obama’s birthplace. Trump is also a possible Republican candidate in the 2012 presidential election.

What idiots! I just cannot believe this kind of garbage becomes law. The first copy of my birth certificate from the state of California had a signature on it, I believe it may have been the doctor's who verified my birth. Years later, I lost that and had to request a new birth certificate. By that time, California, like many states, had entered their births into a data base. The new birth certificate issued to me was a standardized form just like this one from Hawaii with no signatures or seals. Guess that means I cannot run for President. Worse yet, I cannot prove that I am a citizen because my mother was a German national, and like Obama, I was a dual national for many years. The lunatic fringe is alive and well and continuing to harm countless of innocent citizens like myself who can no longer prove citizenship.
