 Really, it's not just presidential birth certificates that they should have to show either.  If your preisdent you should have to release every single bit of information on yourself from birth certificate, to medical records to school transcripts.  Heck, it should be a requirement for running.  It's only the most important job in the country.

Well, you've done a fantastic job as governor/senator, and we love your policies, and you have the support of the electorate and your party, but you had malaria as a child and failed an English exam at the age of eight, so I'm afraid we can't let you be President.

I really don't see why anything other than:

  • Ability to run the country
  • Popularity among Americans
  • American legal citizenship

Should be a prerequisite for being President.


I don't even think you should have to be an American Citizen.   If some German guy can be a president why not.

However, the law is the law.  Can't say I'd want a president who disregards laws on his way to being president.

They're supposed to save that for when they become president.
