I don't think the president's actions since taking office could be legally contested as invalid until the moment he is declared not to be president specifically due to a constitutional proceeding (impeachment or quo warranto) that would achieve removal by proving ineligibility or intentional concealment of ineligibility.

There is a large time gap and many legal roadblocks between commencement of discovery to prove up the alleged Kenyan BC and actual constitutional removal of the president, if warranted.

My point is that if Obama resigns before any Kenyan BC even begins to be validated in federal court, removal for ineligibility would be averted and his prior legal acts preserved, or at least the bar to successfully contesting prior legal acts would be much higher. I am guessing. I am not a lawyer.

Obama will be REQUIRED to submit HIS documents to make the validity of the Kenyan documents moot. This case is all about DISCOVERY. Once he produces or fails to produce documents and CAN'T prove his eligibility, it will be OVER for him. He will have to Quit or be forced out by public uprising. We won't have to wait for a court decision.
