Suppose Barack Obama said ” I have a certified photocopy of my hospital birth report here, signed and sealed by the State of Hawaii. Any member of the Electoral college is welcome to come by the office and look at it.”

Would that meet all your requirements?

Like most commentary from the anti-Obama crowd, primary sources are misrepresented. While the video suggests that the Electoral College has the responsibility for determining the eligibility of the president, the 20th amendment they picture does not say that. It talks about qualifications, but not who determines them. The video then goes on to misstate history on the definition of “natural born citizen”.

The argument that the Electors are entitled to some proof of eligibility gets some sympathy from me. If an elector asks, I think they should have the opportunity to see with their own eyes the signed and sealed Certification of Live Birth from Hawaii. That seems perfectly fair to me.
