Can these actions be brought to the court as “class-action” type lawsuits? I’d bet a lot of citizens would sign on, IMHO.

Dunno ...
I found writ quo warranto in English Common Law - and never knew it existed.
I then checked to see if it is applicable to United States Law - apparently it is.
The Supreme Court is ostensibly a judicial body, but in day-to-day reality, it is also a political body.
If enough people rise up and demand this via writ quo warranto, I do not see how the Supreme Court can ignore it.
In English Common Law (and, apparently, the United States) ANYONE can bring this action in the name of enforcing what English Common Law calls a public right.
Basically, he who would hold the seat has to produce papers that prove he is eligible to be seated.
Obama would not only have to produce his original long form birth certificate, but he would also have to prove that he is a natural born citizen.
Kind of hard for him to do since the term has never been defined by SCOTUS. That is why they would have to get involved.
