I agree with the ruling here and figure an appeal is just a delaying tactic.

Another 'resist' action by the leftist.

Yep he is trying to delay it until after the election of course. I think he should release them but that's just me.

This is the right ruling. So is the ruling that says CA can't require candidates to release their tax returns in order to be on their ballot. The courts will sort both issues out, and I don't expect either appeal to succeed. The president is not a King, and CA can't change the U.S. constitution by adding criteria to the qualifications for becoming president.

States do have considerable purview over conditions for being listed on the ballot obviously.

This is coming from a guy who's supported a president who wouldn't reveal virtually anything about his past, matter of fact had everything sealed.

I do not recall that Obama had anything sealed.

Of course some believe FB memes over factcheck.com, which is fine, but I believe their analysis is correct.

Sure, and if you read the link there are a number of things Obama hasn't released.....hmmmmmm

Sure, but the truth wasn't going to impact Obama's election/re-election like BS memes would.

• Claims #1, 2 and 4, college records. Obamaâ€s college records are not “sealed” by a court order, as this graphic would have you believe. It would be illegal under federal law (the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974) for Occidental, Columbia or Harvard Law School to give any former studentâ€s records to reporters or members of the public without that personâ€s specific, written permission. Obama hasnâ€t released them, but neither have other presidential candidates released their college records. George W. Bushâ€s grades at Yale eventually became public, but only because somebody leaked them to the New Yorker magazine. Bush himself refused to release them, according to a 1999 profile in the Washington Post.
  
  
• Claim #3, thesis paper. Obama did write a paper on nuclear disarmament for an honors course in American foreign policy during his senior year, but it wasnâ€t the sort of “thesis” that some colleges require for graduation and keep on file in their libraries, like those that Hillary Clinton and Michelle Obama released. During the 2008 campaign, reporters were told that Columbia had not retained a copy of Obamaâ€s 1983 paper, and that Obama didnâ€t have a copy, either. NBC News contacted his former professor, Michael Baron, who said he looked for his copy but couldnâ€t find it, and thought he probably tossed it out eight years earlier in a move.
  NBC quoted Baron as saying the paper likely would have disappointed Obamaâ€s critics. “The course was not a polemical course, it was a course in decision making and how decisions got made,” Baron told NBC. “None of the papers in the class were controversial.”
  

Obamaâ€s personal appointment calendar as a state senator may still be private — if it still exists — but weâ€ve seen nothing to suggest that would add much to what is already public. As president, Obama has released records of visitors to the White House (2.4 million so far). There are some exceptions. Personal information about visitors, such as Social Security numbers are not released.


 Itâ€s true that Obama has not released a list of the 30 or so clients for whom he worked personally while he was a lawyer with the firm of Davis, Miner, Barnhill and Gallard in Illinois. 

Itâ€s simply not true that the first lady “can no longer practice law as an attorney.” She could resume the practice of law any time she chooses. Both the president and his wife have voluntarily inactivated their Illinois law licenses, thereby avoiding a requirement to take continuing education classes and pay hundreds of dollars in annual fees, which is common for lawyers no longer actively practicing.

I could go on ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ but the link just makes excuses for things not released.  My choice of words from the meme was wrong in saying  SEALED.  Not released..hehe
