re: #242 nonic

The federal bill would require that IN THE FUTURE candidates would have to provide proofs of the qualifications required by the Constitution.

As a matter of fact, I read some months ago that several (or many or most) state boards of election have already, without fanfare, written that requirement into their rules for FUTURE ballots.

What’s wrong with that? Most people have to show proof of qualifications when they apply for a job.

This federal bill would not even exist if it weren’t for the Nirthers. It is pandering to the conspiracy nuts, very deliberately, for political purposes. That’s what’s wrong with it.
