Who is Leo Berman?
Leo C. Berman is a retired businessman and military officer who is a departing Republican member of the Texas House of Representatives from District 6. He was first elected to this seat in November 1998. In January 2011, Berman announced a challenge to Speaker Joe Straus of San Antonio for the presiding officer's position but subsequently withdrew from the race. Though Representative Warren Chisum of Pampa filed his candidacy for Speaker, Straus was handily reelected to a second term in the leadership in January 2011.
Berman introduced legislation to require future presidential candidates to prove constitutional eligibility for office before they can be listed on the Texas ballot, but the measure failed to pass the legislature.
