<\/a>Two Dozen PA legislators sign on Proof of Citizenship Bill for Ballot Status<\/strong><\/p>

From Eric Dondero:<\/p>

While legislators in other states who have introduced similar legislation have tiptoed around the issue of Barack Obama's citizenship, Pennsylvania Republicans are hitting it head on. <\/p>

24 Republican House members have signed on to co-sponsor a Bill to require full proof of citizenship before a candidate could qualify for the 2012 ballot. <\/p>

The Bill's sponsor, who is a staunch activist against illegal immigration, is not mincing words on Obama's immigration status. <\/p>

From Lancasteronline.com<\/a> \"Lancaster County legislator backs birther bill
Aimed at presidential hopefuls\" April 13:<\/p>

The bill's author, Republican state Rep. Daryl Metcalfe of Butler County, said he drafted the measure in response to persistent questions about Obama's citizenship...<\/p>

\"I was shocked that somebody's running for president and there's this question,\" Metcalfe said. \"Why doesn't our process thoroughly ensure we don't have that question?\"<\/p>

Metcalfe said Obama has not provided enough documentation to satisfy \"most people\" to put an end to the controversy. In a statement announcing his legislation, though, Metcalfe goes a step further and says he, too, doesn't believe the president has proved his was born in the country.<\/p>

\"It is beyond perplexing and greatly troubling that a political candidate can ascend to the highest levels of government without providing sufficient documentation verifying his or her place of birth or American citizenship,\" Metcalfe said.<\/p><\/blockquote>

Of course, Pennsylvania is a key battleground state in every presidential election. Obama not being qualified for the ballot in the Keystone State could seriously jeopardize his chances of winning the Electorial College. <\/p>
