Obama Asks For Papers Without Lawful Contact?

Seniors at Kalamazoo Central High School are being asked to provide their birth dates, Social Security numbers and citizen status to the Secret Service so background checks could be performed.  Why?  The President is coming to their commencement next month.  So, it is OK for the President to “ask for zee papers, please” for no other reason than a visit, but not OK for Arizona to ask for proper identification of status when lawful contact has been made?  Seems a little hypocritical doesn’t it?
