An activist organization has posted a video on YouTube challenging members of the Electoral College to investigate the dispute over Barack Obama's birth certificate and eligibility for office.
The U.S. Constitution requires that the president be a "natural born" citizen, but the organization, Democratic-Disaster.com, says instead of providing the documentation, Obama has hired three law firms to make certain the public does not have access to it.
That's where the electors come in, according to the organization. The group says they have the "moral and constitutional obligation" to investigate and be assured of Obama's eligibility.
[quotes] "Electors have a right to request credentials of a candidate," it says. "Electors have a duty to the country over any pledge to the party to vote their consciences.

Supremes turn down request to stop Electoral vote wnd
But Friday, high court will consider another case in flood of eligibility challenges
The U.S. Supreme Court has turned aside a request to stop the Electoral College from selecting the 44th president, in a vote scheduled for Monday, until Barack Obama documents his eligibility for the office under the Constitution's requirement that presidents must be "natural born" citizens.
The action came in a case brought to the high court by Philip J. Berg, who alleges Obama is ineligible to be president.
The controversy, however, remains far from over. The latest ruling was sandwiched between Monday's decision not to review arguments against Obama's candidacy in the Donofrio v. Wells case from New Jersey and a conference that is scheduled by the justices this Friday on another case raising virtually the same concerns. (more info at linked article)
