Bills in At Least Nine States to Require Birth Certificates for Presidential Candidates

Bills have been introduced in at least nine states to provide that certain presidential candidates may not be listed on ballots unless a birth certificate is submitted to elections officials. Some of these bills only relate to presidential candidates running in a presidential primary. Others relate to presidential candidates on the November ballot.

Bills that only relate to candidates running in a presidential primary are: Indiana SB 114; and Oklahoma SB 91 and SB 384.

Bills that cover all candidates who seek to run in the general election are: Connecticut SB 391; Nebraska LB 654; Oklahoma SB 540; and Texas HB 295 and HB 529.

Bills that cover some candidates in the general election, but not all of them, are: Arizona HB 2544; Georgia HB 37; Missouri HB 283; Montana HB 205.

When the bills attempt to cover nominees of qualified parties in general elections, they vary according to who is supposed to furnish the birth certificate. Connecticut’s SB 391 is the strangest, because it puts the requirement in the passive voice, so as to avoid saying who is supposed to furnish the document. It says the bill “requires the Secretary of State to be presented with an original birth certificate.” Nebraska’s LB 654 requires the officers of the national party nominating convention to furnish the certificate. Arizona’s HB 2544, and Georgia’s HB 37, require the national committee of the party to furnish it. Missouri’s HB 283 requires the state party officers to furnish it. Texas’ HB 295 and HB 529 require the presidential candidate to furnish it. Oklahoma’s SB 540 doesn’t say who is to furnish it, but says any voter can challenge the ballot status of a presidential candidate’s citizenship.

A strange bill in Maine, LD 34, requires independent presidential candidates, but no other presidential candidates, to submit a birth certificate. Thanks to Bill Van Allen for news about these bills.

  2. Unadopted – Obama became an Indonesian Refugee

    Barry Soetoro returned to America about 1971 as an Indonesian Refugee. Shortly after that, BHO Sr. returned to Hawai’i to complain before a Hawai’i Circuit Court he was not notified and did not consent to the Soetoro adoption.

    The Soetoro adoption was voided and Barry name was legally changed to Barack Hussein Obama, born Aug. 4, 1961 in Honolulu, HI. The Court ordered a new vital record to be created and “filed” with the Hawai’i DoH. The vital record is not “accepted” because there is no attestion by a doctor or hospital administrator.

    The Court does not have jurisdiction to naturalize an Indonesian citizen. Naturalization is an Executive Branch function. BHO II would have had to present himself to the U.S. Embassy in Honolulu, HI to apply to recover his U.S. Citizenship and take an Oath of Allegiance to naturalize.

    The reason Barack’s SSN, beginning with 042, doesn’t match his state or zip code when applying was because BHO II used the services of American Resettlement Organization (ARO) to obtain his SSN. Most likely the ARO was Headquartered in Connecticut or New York.
    Only refugees who have been referred by UNHCR or by the US embassy in the country of asylum are eligible for the US Refugee Resettlement Program. Usually refugees with family are referred together as a single group.
    The Department of State’s Bureau for Population, Refugees and Migration (PRM) oversees this program. The State Department develops application criteria, refugee admission ceilings and presents eligible cases to the Immigration & Naturalization Service (INS) for adjudication.

    The State Department’s Foreign Affairs Manual (FAM) describes the process of application for admission to the United States as a refugee in 9 FAM Part IV Appendix O.

    If the INS officer approves the refugee’s application for US resettlement, he or she will be matched with an American resettlement organization. Most of these nonprofit organizations rely on professional and volunteer staff to assist refugees in the resettlement process.

    If rejected, the applicant has thirty days to file a motion to reconsider the denial with the nearest INS district office. Generally, a motion is considered only if it contains new information not available at the original interview.

    First Steps in US Resettlement
    The resettlement organization that assured a refugee’s case is responsible for assisting the refugee in the initial resettlement phase. Each resettlement organization provides a variety of services to promote early self-sufficiency and cultural adjustment. The following activities take place within the first thirty days of arrival.
    * Application for Social Security Number
    Most newly arrived refugees desperately want a permanent home. Resettlement organizations work hard to find housing for refugees that is safe, sanitary, of a sufficient size, affordable, and accessible to public transportation. Some US cities and towns offer more housing options than others. Refugees need social security numbers in order to seek employment or enroll in school. All refugees register with the Social Security Administration as soon as possible.
    * School Registration All refugee children are enrolled in school upon arrival in the US.
    * Medical Evaluation Even though refugees are medically screened prior to entering the US, each is examined again by medical professionals in their new communities. At this time, the refugee is familiarized with the local American health care system. He or she also receives needed inoculations and any other necessary treatments.

    INTERESTINGLY IN MAY OF 2008….
    THE STATE DEPARTMENT YANKED THE LICENSE OF A REFUGEE RESETTLEMENT ORGANIZATION…
    “State Department yanks International Institute of Connecticut …May 10, 2008 … Educate citizens about Refugee Resettlement Policy of the U.S. Government. … From the Republican-American today: The State Department has canceled its … of an organization that is clearly not doing its job,” he said. … refugeeresettlementwatch.wordpress.com/…/state-department-yanks- international-institute-of-connecticut-contract/ – Cached – Similar”

  3. #2 The various naturalization actions are a result of many Acts of the gerrymander Congress going back to 1790.

    New areas becoming a part of the U.S.A.

    U.S.A. conquests – Mexico, Hawaii, etc.

    Foreign Enemies invading and conquering U.S.A. areas – i.e. Japanese Empire in 1941-1945.

    Who’s your daddy or earlier — even going back to the first LEGAL immigrant into a State in the U.S.A. on or after 4 July 1776 ???

  4. Between 4 July 1776 and 4 Mar 1789 each of the 13 sovereign States had its own naturalization laws.

    U.S.A. regime enacted the 1790 Naturalization Law — amended and replaced many times since.
