Candidate Qualification: Commission on Presidential Debates

By Phil

Justin Riggs at yourfellowcitizen.com yesterday posted the following:

Today I received the following document from an anonymous tipster who only wanted to be known as “super sleuth from Florida”. If you scroll down to the bottom of page 1, you’ll see how important this document is. It’s only the 2nd document I’ve seen where an entity other than the candidate himself states that the candidate is Constitutionally eligible. In this case, the Commission of Presidential Debates says that before any candidate can be eligible to debate, he/she have to prove to CPD that they meet the Constitutional requirements. Here’s the document, followed by the letter I wrote the Executive Director.

As I’ve said for some time now, regardless of the outcomes of the various eligibility lawsuits, true and meaningful reform of the electoral process is going to have come from initiatives such as the great work Justin and his compatriots are doing as well as at the State level.

All of this is a painfully slow process; I am reminded of the following quote:
