AZ Update
Here is the latest on the Arizona Eligibility bill, which began winding it's way through the Arizona state house today.
Arizona's House reps passed the bill on the first reading, then sent it to the Senate side where it was voted down 5-3 by the Judiciary Committee. Two republicans flipped, including Rick Martin a co sponsor. ????? Nevertheless, the bill finds itself in the Senate Rules Committee which will vote shortly, most likely this week, in order to determine whether or not to send it to the floor for the consideration of the full senate.
This bill should pass, it passed 4 readings in the 2010 session, but for a pocket veto by the senate president, a republican, it would have been given to Gov. Jan Brewer last August for her signature. Arizona's statehouse has turned redder, rather than bluer, another plus for our camp.
Arizona is not the only state working this type of legislation. Obama's got a bigggg problem.

An election for President and Commander in Chief of the Military must strive to be above reproach. Our public institutions must give the public confidence that a presidential candidate has complied with the election process that is prescribed by our Constitution and laws. It is only after a presidential candidate satisfies the rules of such a process that he/she can expect members of the public, regardless of their party affiliations, to give him/her the respect that the Office of President so much deserves.
