Sheriff Joe Arpaio making some waves in Hawaii

[DD977GM2]

Sounds as if Sheriff Joe is about to piss off a lot of folks.
He wants a real birth certificae for obummer and if not, will not
have him on the ballot in November

Joe kicks ass.

I don't agree with everything Sheriff Joe does but the man does stick to his convictions... Good for him!

[KevDen2005]

I agree, I like the guy, but I think whether he gets the birth certificate or not, he is gonna lose that game.

Buuut- The AZ Secretary of State has also stated he is REQUIRING proof.

Could get interesting.

Technical question- If BO is disallowed to be on a ballot in a state(s), how can he be POTUS?

To be POTUS, one only needs to win a majority in the Electoral College. Arizona is not a crucial state in presidential elections because it does not have many electoral votes. To be the POTUS there are really about 15 states that you need to win by a majority vote. Those states have enough electoral votes to put any candidate over the top. States like California, Texas, New York, and Florida are the gold standard for most presidential elections.

Actually, in theory one would only have to carry 11 states to receive the 271 electoral votes necessary to become president..

We all bitch when Bloomberg follows his convictions in states that are not New York.

I don't care that Joe is doing this, I'm just sayin'.

He's not taking any action in any county other than Maricopa County. They're just in Hawaii looking for the bc.

ETA: This will probably only affect Maricopa County if Arpaio doesn't get sufficient proof. Unless he is working for the state and his findings affect the other counties.

You missed the part where the AZ secretary of state (Ken Bennett) has suspended putting BHO on the state ballot until he sees proof that doesn't look forged.
