Efforts to get the United States Supreme Court to demand that Barack Obama provide unassailable proof of American citizenship continue without results.
Just for a moment, imagine that the Court does its job and it turns out that Obama cant 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 nations chief executive.
Should that be the case nothing that he has done, no appointments that he has made nor executive orders he issued would be valid. And under the provisions of the Constitution, John McCain would be declared the legitimate President of the United States and Sarah Palin the Vice President starting with Inauguration Day, 2009.
All acts of Congress since January 2009 and signed by Obama would be null and void. No Obamacare, no federal tax laws, and none of his cabinet or sub-cabinet appointments would be valid.
And there would be blood in the streets as the labor union and the rest of the thuggery that supports him would erupt in violence. And God knows where wed end up.
The prospect of the nation enduring another two and a half years of this incredibly unqualified man is unpleasant, but perhaps the consequences of driving him from the office he now holds could prove disastrous.
The nation has endured many a great and tragic crisis , including a bloody Civil War that often set brother against brother, and a depression that nearly leveled the economy for all time. We survived in all such cases.
We can survive the final years of Barack Obamas presidency..(continued)

The blacks in the hood would riot. And SOME union people might demonstrate. But Obama isn’t as liked amongst the common union person as he was even 1 year ago. The union leaders might talk it up, and some of the union people will follow whereever, but I think the average person would let it go.
Or “...If a President shall not have been chosen before the time fixed for the beginning of his term, or if the President elect shall have failed to qualify, then the Vice President elect shall act as President until a President shall have qualified; and the Congress may by law provide for the case wherein neither a President elect nor a Vice President elect shall have qualified, declaring who shall then act as President, or the manner in which one who is to act shall be selected, and such person shall act accordingly until a President or Vice President shall have qualified.” Section 3 of the 20th amendment to the constitution.
It would be best for the country to leave Biden as the sitting President.
It would be seen as legitimate, Biden is an American and hilarious.
The country will be unusually entertained with Biden and would need the distraction.
The rest of the Cabal Nancy and the other SOB’s that were in on the fix, when they signed resolution 511 and should be tarred and feathered.
I’d just as soon get rid of the SOB and take my chances. You either have a serious country or you don’t, and the danger of not being taken seriously in the world is at least as great as any danger of blood in the streets over a case of fraud being properly adjudicated.
Point taken.
“...removal of Obama would create a huge societal upheaval....”
I have this crazy hunch that there are professional provocateurs who will use any excuse to incite violence in order to declare martial law.
McCain would have no claim whatsoever on the office as he didn't even come close to getting the required number of electoral votes.
I see your point, but I read it this way- if the president elect is found not to qualify before his term is to start, then you go with another option. I think that’s the intent because right after this it talks about the vice president elect, not the sworn-in one.
In this case, let’s assume that suddenly everyone agrees he’s not eligible (”qualified”), it will be after the start of his term.
This is all uncharted waters, the people who wrote the constitution did not imagine that someone who does not qualify would get to take the oath. Let alone have the actual oath flubbed by a variety of Charlie Foxtrot, then administered in private with few witnesses and no cameras.

I think it became a state in 1959. January 3, 1959- Alaska becomes the 49th State. http://hawaii.gov/statehood/history
Yhey are confirmed by the Senate.
They'd stick.
Besides, Obamas puppets are just replacements for the two he had who retired.
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
The de facto officer doctrine confers validity upon acts performed by a person acting under the color of official title even though it is later discovered that the legality of that person's appointment or election to office is deficient. Norton v. Shelby County, 118 U.S. 425, 440 (1886). "The de facto doctrine springs from the fear of the chaos that would result from multiple and repetitious suits challenging every action taken by every official whose claim to office could be open to question, and seeks to protect the public by insuring the orderly functioning of the government despite technical defects in title to office." 63A Am. Jur. 2d, Public Officers and Employees § 578, pp. 1080-1081 (1984) (footnote omitted).
It’s possible that the marxist mutt Barry Soetoro will not produce a long form BC because he does not have one in his possession and never did. His whackjob mother didn’t bother with such details as having and keeping one for little Barry.
If so then he’s in a bad place, needed to have one, yet never did, and so cannot produce it.
It is also possible that he does not know the day or year of his birth. There have been 2 different years on his own website, although they now have it nailed down as 1961. They had to get their story straight after all!
His anger at the world comes from many sources in his past and present. Not knowing when you were born has to be a thorn in his side.
Doncha get the feeling he hated his mother? Hates his whole cracker side? Hates whitey even though he is half white. His idiot mother really screwed him up but good.
He’s a hater. Hates the world. Centers his hate on our great country. He will go down as the most destructive and hated president in history and that includes long into the future. He’s a bastard coated bastard with bastard filling and I hope our country can survive 4 years of having the enemy within the White House.
Biden couldn't be prez, because he was the running mate on an ineligible ticket. Had an ineligible POTUS not been elected, he wouldn't have become VPOTUS. The only possible legal and logical outcome would be the runners-up, McLame and Palin, would be named the winners.
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
II,1,3 says nothing about parties, tickets, or linkage between eligible candidates-
...
In every case, after the choice of the President, the person having the greatest number of votes of the electors shall be the Vice President.

Obama cannot be impeached because he isn’t, never was, and never can be president.
Now, subversion of the Constitution
is a different matter.
That is great to read because if he was president and had those presidential powers he really could cause some problems for this country. I was getting worried about this country but you made me feel better.
Imagination-land makes everything better.
