Wichita man petitions state to keep President Obama off Kansas ballot in 2012

[proud2BlibKansan]

A Wichita man on Monday petitioned top state officials to keep President Barack Obama off the Kansas ballot in 2012, saying that the president wasn’t eligible for the office because he has failed to prove he was born in the United States.

“I’m saying that he (Obama) is going to file documents to be on the Kansas ballot. At the time, I would like the state of Kansas to be prepared,” said David Merton Shultz.

The State Objections Board rejected Shultz’s request by a 3-0 vote, with members agreeing that the petition was too early. Under state law, any challenge of a candidate being on the ballot must be made within three days of that candidate officially filing his or her candidacy in the state.

In Obama’s case, that likely won’t happen until after the September 2012 Democratic national Convention.

4. What a pathological, futile pursuit.

Yet the media keeps giving airtime to the fools who want to try to keep the issue alive, though there IS no issue.

It's like humoring someone who says the earth is flat.

5. Lots of birthers in the world.

Lots of birthers mean lots of signatures on a petition. Secretary of State is an elected position. If the President is ever forced to take this up, this is how it will happen.

6. Hurts so bad

When was the last time Kansas went for a Democrat? No big loss.
