And like all your other statements, the ones that are correct are actually irrelevant. And yes ...

The specific enumeration of Impeachment being in the domain of the Government legislature does in fact prohibit SCOTUS from trying to remove the President. They can’t. The simply cannot. There is no mechanism to do so because it’s been given exclusively to Congress.

And yes, you do keep asserting that the Supreme court gets to judge the constitutionality of the constitution.

This is a post election political fight between Dems and Repubs.

One last time.

1. Is Obama President of the United States?
2. How is a President constitutionally removed from office?

I'll make it easy for you to focus my points rather than your characterizations:

Point Agree? Explain Disagreement
The Judiciary has the exclusive authority to determine questions of law.    
Questions regarding provisions of the U.S. Constitution are decided by the U.S. Supreme Court (when a case is brought to the Court).    
The definition of the “natural born citizen” provision is a question of law. The question has evaded review and is is capable of repetition. The question must be answered by the U.S. Supreme Court.    
The Legislature’s authority to impeach in no way constrains the Judiciary’s authority to answer questions of law.    
A Judicial determination of ineligibility either bars a person from being seated in office or removes a sitting person from office.    
Occupancy of office does not confer eligibility.
