What if Congress “deems” him Emporer? Does that make him Emporer?
***That title doesn’t exist in the constitution. So... no. And also, it points to where your analogy doesn’t apply to this situation.

Fifth, as nothing but an usurper (if he becomes one), Obama will have no conceivable authority “to make Treaties”, or to “nominate, and appoint Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls, Judges of the Supreme Court, and all other Officers of the United States, whose Appointments are not
***So when we see him appointing such people, is his authority now “conceivable”? Today he put a stop to trials at Gitmo. Will those trials continue because he’s a usurper or will they end because he has the authority to stop them? Sure, if it’s proven he was a fraudulent usurper all along, his authority will be taken away from him, but it is authority that must be taken away — it’s not like he doesn’t have that authority in the first place.

A constitutional usurper cannot have constitutional authority. If he’s not qualified, his actions are unenforcable. Any actions taken to enforce his decisions are themselves unlawful.

Neither does the title foreign-born president.

"Of course, if Obama knows that he is not “a natural born Citizen” who never renounced his American citizenship, then he also knows that he and his henchmen have perpetrated numerous election-related frauds throughout the country—the latest, still-ongoing one a colossal swindle targeting the American people as a whole. If that is the case, his refusal “to be a witness against himself” is perfectly explicable and even defensible on the grounds of the Fifth Amendment. Howsoever justified as a matter of criminal law, though, Obama’s silence and inaction will not obviate the necessity for him to prove his eligibility for “the Office of President.” The Constitution may permit him to “take the Fifth;” but it will not suffer him to employ that evasion as a means to usurp the Presidency of the United States."
