‘Ahhh. but who put Biden on the ticket? Who had the final decision on who was Obamas running mate for VP?’

Legally the Democrat convention put him on the ticket and was the final legal authority on that choice. Politically the convention always follows the Presidential candidate’s recommendation, but this has no legal authority at all.

Candidates for the presidency must file papers with the Federal Election Commission. That agency regulates presidential campaigns. That agency should have responsibility for verifying the eligibility of any and all candidates.

So how did the FEC deem the undocumented Kenyan to be eligible?

From what I have read on this subject, I would rather take my chances with a few states taking the initiative and denying his placement on the ballot. Secretaries of State should be made responsible for validating the candidates eligibility on their respective ballots. Arizona is probably going to have a law in place next year (we are hoping).

‘if the “winners” were declared ineligible, in theory at least, the race would have to go to the 2nd place finishers.’

Election requires a MAJORITY of the electors.

Amndt XII also fails to mention parties, tickets, or linkage between eligible candidates.

Perhaps the lameduck House will be very unusual.

Excellent point!

I know some are freaking that Obama will come after our guns. I say, let him try. Does the Kenyan really think we’ll voluntarily give up our arms when we’ve seen what a lying, sack of sh*t, Mooslim he really is? NO WE WON’T!

Oh, they might try to make a weapons sweep, but this will fail. It will be amazing how many weapons just happen to come up missing. “Now where did I put that darn thing?”

No other civilization has ever had the fire-power that the United States Citizen have. Most of the world’s tyrrants have had a largely unarmed population. Hence, they were fairly easy to crush. This is why we enjoy the freedoms we have.

In the District of Columbia code 3501 has been used in the past to remove Congressman who were found after election to have been ineligible to run due to citizenship. This law applies to ALL elected officials in Washington D.C., including the President. Congress has the authority to remove obama by voiding his election. Biden election as vice-president is tainted by his selection by obama. Impeachment is not necessary for a person that legally never held the office. The Supreme Court can not remove obama, only the Congress can. The Supreme Court could declare that obama is not a Natural Born citizen, but it still would be up to the Congress to void his election.

" What about Nazi's marching in Skokie? "

Your right, even though WE don't agree with and WE oppose the beliefs of the Neo-Nazis, the question here is ?
Would the Liberals, Marxist, MSM, and Obama oppose, and have a problem with them exercising their constitutional right to protest, and peacefully march ?
yes Liberals, Marxist, MSM, this is the same argument.

Of course the Liberals/Marxist would oppose it !!

( but, they don't oppose it for the reasons why we oppose it, because the Liberals/Marxist have their own form of the Neo-Nazis or hate groups, in whom, they support. )...

Of course the Liberals, Marxist, MSM, Obama would oppose it, in spite of the fact ! that they have a conditional right to do so no matter how much they oppose it.
So why then ? are the Liberals, Marxist, MSM, Obama forcing us to accept that the Islamics want to build a symbol to Islam near the hollowed and sacred ground near the 9/11 ground zero.

How would he “crush” 100-200 million armed civilians, many of whom have a military and/or hunting & shooting sports background.

Just for a moment, imagine that the Court does its job and it turns out that Obama can’t come up with a legitimate birth certificate showing that he was indeed born on U.S. soil in what was then the territory of Hawaii, and the Court declares that he is therefore ineligible to serve as the nation’s chief executive.

Might as well imagine that aliens from outer space will land on the White House lawn next month. None of this is going to happen, the whole birth issue is a waste of time and a distraction from the hard work of getting the Democrats out of power in Congress and undoing Obama's health-care takeover.

It appears much of the dilemna concerns ‘proof’. Did/does Obama have to provide unimpeachable proof of his eligibility at any time a reasonable suspicion is presented? Apparently not according to ongoing politics. On the other hand does an accuser about Obama’s lack of eligibility need to prove any claims? Apparently yes conditioned to the qualification of standing as set by the courts. So it seems something is needed to break this impasse. It would seem that in this era of transparency and all the going-ons in DC there would be some factor of government which makes the Congress and Courts to move the issue to resolution as to a legal proof.

I don’t think anyone really knows how much, if any, the de facto officer doctrine would cover the situation where the office was obtained by fraud. Certainly people who obeyed the orders of the putative office holder would not be punished. But how much of his/her acts would remain, it’s hard to say. In this case though the solution would be simple in concept, but perhaps politically non-viable. Congress could just pass a law saying that Public law AAA to ZZZ were re-passed and then have acting President Biden sign it. The fly in the ointment would be that Republicans might not go along with such a blanket approach.

There is so much more to the hidden data on Obama.
There is the very real possibility that he isn't even a legitimate American Citizen! He may have done things after reaching age 18 which defaulted away any American citizenship he may have obtained.
He may not have been born in the US and his grandmother and mother provided a fraudulent natal scenario to obtain an HI file of natal.
He may have been adopted by Lolo Soetoro and never re-upped U.S. citizenship and may even have used Inodnesian citizenship to game the college entry and tuition systems.
He may have been born in Canada and his actual biological father may have been a young black teen in the Washington State or Chicago area.
So many things have been hidden from the public regarding Barry the Bastards life!

A small cadre of people have been very busy burting the tacks of Barry the Bastard. Americans used to have a right as sovereigns to know the life history of their presidentail candidates. The democrap party has cancelled that right as they've worked to end the Republic of We The People and replace it with a federal oligarchy now taking clear shape before our very eyes daily!

I normally agree with a lot of the CFP articles, but this one puts forth a false premise: “Just for a moment, imagine that the Court does its job and it turns out that Obama can’t come up with a legitimate birth certificate showing that he was indeed born on U.S. soil in what was then the territory of Hawaii, and the Court declares that he is therefore ineligible to serve as the nation’s chief executive.”

1) Being born in the US is not the requirement for a President. Being a Natural Born Citizen IS and that requires birth in the US or Territory and both parents to be US citizens.

2) Hawaii became a State in 1959, so was not a US Territory in 1961.

Major gaffes like this by the person who wrote the article tend to significantly reduce a reader’s belief in anything else in the article.

The only thing that could have stripped him of his US citizenship would have been for him to walk into a consular official's office, sign paperwork and swear an oath of renunciation. Nothing else matters because the US policy is that no expatriating act is considering to be really expatriating unless the intention is there, and the intention is evidenced by the procedure above.
