I have no problem with not allowing guns on college campuses in the hands of anyone except law enforcement or security personnel.

As to the "Birther" Bill, I think it should be required that ANYONE who is running for President of the United States should have to meet the qualifications set forth in the Constitution of the United States, that is, be a natural born citizen of the U.S.

Nothing wrong with that at all. Obama could end all the speculation by simply ponying up a legitimate birth certificate.

That hasn't happened. The people of this nation have an absolute right to know the person they are going to vote on is a bonafide U.S. citizen by birth as is required by our Constitution.

I think Brewer is wrong on this particular part of the veto.

Gov. Brewer Vetoes Birther Bill, Guns on Campus

PHOENIX - Arizona Governor Jan Brewer has vetoed two controversial bills passed by both the Arizona Senate and House -- the guns on campus bill and the 'birther' bill.

Guns on Campus Bill

- Would've allowed guns to be carried on public rights of way at public university and community college campuses
- Applies only to rights of way -- not inside classrooms
- University presidents opposed the bill

'Birther' Bill

- Would've required President Barack Obama and other presidential candidates to prove they are U.S. citizens before their names can appear on the state's ballot
- Arizona would've become the first state to require such proof
- 13 other states have considered similar proposals this year. The proposals were defeated in Arkansas, Connecticut, Maine and Montana
