Kansas Republican establishment goes full birther


Kansas Republican establishment goes full birther

Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach, bigot and birther (though that's redundant)

Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach is already well known in the Latino community—he's the author of Arizona's hateful SB 1070 law and, as an adviser to Mitt Romney, a big reason that our nation's top vulture capitalist will lose the Latino vote in record numbers this year.

But unsatisfied with keeping brown people out of the United States, Kobach is now spearheading an effort to keep a brown person out of the White House.

Three of the state's top elected Republicans on Thursday determined they lacked sufficient evidence of President Barack Obama's birth records to decide whether to remove the Democratic nominee from the November ballot in Kansas.

The State Objections Board comprised of Secretary of State Kris Kobach, Attorney General Derek Schmidt and Lt. Gov. Jeff Colyer postponed until Monday action on a complaint filed by a Manhattan resident

pending review of a copy of Obama's birth certificate from Hawaii.

Kansas Republicans: We need to see Obama's birth certificate


Kansas Republicans: We need to see Obama's birth certificate

By Brian Montopoli, Phil Hirschkorn

Updated 4:03 P.M. Eastern Time with Joe Montgomery dropping his petition. (See bottom.)

(CBS News) Kansas' Republican Secretary of State and two other Republican officials have determined that they do not have enough evidence to determine whether President Obama can appear on the Kansas ballot, the Topeka Capital-Journal reported.

Secretary of State Kris Kobach, Attorney General Derek Schmidt and Lt. Gov. Jeff Colyer said they need to review the president's birth certificate and other documents before they can respond to a complaint alleging that Mr. Obama is not a "natural born citizen."

The State Objections Board, which the trio serve on, is seeking more information from three states -- Hawaii, Arizona, and Mississippi. (Hawaii holds the president's birth certificate; government officials in Arizona and Mississippi have conducted similar investigations.) "The State Objections Board is asking other states for evidence presented to them on this same issue of eligibility," Kay Curtis, spokeswoman for Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach, told CBS News.

"Given the cursory response from President Obama, the Board is merely attempting to obtain additional information before making a decision," said Curtis. Neither office of the Kansas Attorney General Schmidt or Kansas Lieutenant Governor Colyer returned calls for comment.
