Where in the Constitution is this?

I don't think it matters who is on the ballot in RI. They're going to vote for whoever is the Democrat. RI hasn't gone for a Republican since Eisenhower.

If they really were serious about making sure politicians don't create laws for personal gain :)lmao: I couldn't even type that with a straight face :lol:) they'd make it across the board. Not only for Republican presidential candidates, but Senate, House, and local government, right on down to Town Councils.

It's already been ruled that constitutionally, you can't add additional requirements to run for state office - and that would apply also to federal.

Another way Democrats found to waste more taxpayer money.

They should have killed two birds with one stone...They should have also required a candidate to submit a certified birth certificate as well...

AZ tried that, but to make it worthwhile one must add in a lot of crap, and the R governor at the time said she wouldn't sign such a thing. To a certain degree, I agreed with her concept. However, I'm pretty sure her objections could have been overcome.

The difference, of course, is that place of birth actually is in the Constitution for president:
US Constitution said:
No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.
