“Standing” is a very appropriate legal requirement to bring suit. How would you like it if I could bring a suit on behalf of your neighbor against you without even having your neighbor’s consent? It is intended to keep nosy people out of other people’s business.

The problem is when courts will not acknowledge that if a President is not qualified to hold the office then EVERYONE is harmed and therefore, ANYONE, should be able to bring suit. Thus, the interpretation of “standing” is where we have our beef.

In this scenario you have not demonstrated that you have been harmed.

Agreed. Hence my sarcasm.
