If most (or maybe all?) states have such a process, we could coordinate a nationwide effort to challenge Obama’s eligibility on state ballots across the nation. Such an effort could result in Obama choosing not to run.

Mrs. Rondeau replies: Yes, that was Chalice Jackson, aka Sharon Ann Meroni. If Illinois has such a time period wherein a registered voter can challenge a candidate’s eligibility and get them to show a birth certificate as she did, then all of us must study our own states’ laws and get involved early in the process. During that special time frame, they have to check into the person’s constitutional qualifications if that is the basis for the challenge.
