Therefore, the major group that had motivation for this issue would have been the Hillaries. Besides, this is just one more issue to bring up in Obama’s impeachment investigation.

There is no way Hillary will become President, even if Obama is ineligible. Simply not going to happen.

If Obama is declared to be ineligible, no replacement would be widely regarded as legitimate. If Obama is not eligible, the only scenario I can see which would maintain both real and apparent legitimacy would be for a court to find not that Obama was ineligible, but rather that he would be eligible as soon as he allowed the state of Hawaii to confirm his eligibility. Joe Biden would serve as Acting President as needed.

Straightforward solution which would prevent Obama from engaging in brinkmanship. The succession from Obama to Biden would be clear, and I see no reason for any reasonable person to question the legitimacy.

the point of bringing up Hillary is that she was the one who had motivation to bring this issue up in December 2007. She did not do it. I do not speculate on why.

I did not mean to confuse the readers into thinking Hillary somehow is interested in this issue now.

She had to bounce Obama from the primary ballots. And this was a non-issue last winter.

some of us try to be brief, but if we fail to explain everything in detail, people assume we mean the opposite of what we are saying.

THAT IS MY POINT. THERE IS NO OTHER PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE WHO IS BEHIND THIS EFFORT WHICH EXPLAINS WHY IT IS DEAD. DEAD. DEAD.
