"You really believe that Joseph Stalin could lawfully “qualify” as POTUS under the US Constitution, as required by the 20th Amendment?"

Where on earth did that come from? I can't imagine anyone thinking that Stalin would have been qualified to serve as President. (Hint: He was born in Georgia, but not the one here!)
Remember, it was your hypothetical. Everyone else thought it was ridiculous. It's quite a sight now to see you decrying your own absurdity!
I almost answered this, thinking you were Mr Rogers, who I addressed the question to. You, BG, won’t even acknowledge that Lind said Joseph Stalin could be President and it would be “irrelevant” to the lawfulness of Lakin’s orders. So you haven’t even met the requirement of honesty required for me to engage with you.
I’ll wait for Mr Rogers to respond, either on the board or privately.
