Obama answers to NO ONE.

Thanks, Calpernia
Save the Constitution Ping.
Not going anywhere? The court reviews on Friday December 5th Bergs suit and votes if the full court should hear the case. Only requires 4 yea votes.
And did you read the article? It must have been post marked by yesterday, and two days for the mail. So not really late until COB Wednesday.
You REALLY think that the Obamanation has a snowball’s chance in hell of being ruled illegal?
I believe that Obama is using every means to erode the Constitution for his own personal benefit. One reason he may have chosen Hilary is so that he could emphasize the point that exceptions must be made and that the Constitution must be adjusted to fit the times and situations we face.
Nope. We elect electors. They get to choose the President. So far, nobody has filed suit to force an elector to vote for the candidate they pledged to vote for, or to vote as directed by the state.
We presume they will vote for the candidate, although there has been an occasional elector which voted for a different candidate as a protest.
In fact, one could argue that for the November 4th election, the only thing that really needed to be certified was that the electors were legally allowed to be electors, since we voted for the electors.
It’s the electors that have to choose a legally qualified President. That’s when I would expect a legal challenge to be found credible, if there would ever be such a time.
There is zero chance Berg will get a court to stop the appointing of electors, or stop the electors from meeting. Neither the votes for the electors, nor the gathering of the electors, is invalid or unconstitutional.
The only argument Berg has is that Obama can’t be chosen — so until the Electors choose him I don’t think there is standing to sue.
And yes, if the electors decided Obama was not constitutionally qualified, they could really pick anybody else they wanted to be President. I don’t think they would be bound to pick Biden, they could make Biden somebody else’s VP.
There is nothing in the constitution specifying WHO the electors need to vote for, other than the rule that each elector must chose either a President or a VP from a state other than themselves (meaning that if a party runs two people from the same state, at least one of them can’t get the electors from that state. SOme people misunderstand this to mean you can’t have a Pres and VP from the same state, but for almost any election, you could still win even if you had to split the electors from one state).
If he is ignoring the Supreme Court now, wait till he gets to the White House!
That would be most appropriate, since the entire DNC and mainstream media participated in, and propagated this fraud. I sure hope the SCOTUS agrees.
I thought the same thing about Hillary. Well if it’s ok here, well it’s ok over here too!
Now that "Obama" finished the first part of his job, i.e. acceptance of BushClinton and celebration of the "Obamanation of Desolation" (2), "Obama" can step down as president-elect (3) and begin playing the second part of his role. (4)

I cannot imagine a that a majority of Democratic Electors would choose anyone else, if Obama is out. She was their second choice after all, and they can still have Biden as VP if they want him.
Hillary is an opportunist, and she will seize any chance that she gets to achieve her goal of the Presidency.
Either way, Hillary will be the big winner here. If Obama is inaugurated, she is four heartbeats away from the Presidency. If Obama is declared ineligible due to fraud, Hillary steps in and "saves" the country.
That is why my first question is relevant. If the Obama's Electors maintain their voting rights in the Electoral College, they being Democrats, will choose Hillary, once Obama is declared ineligible.
However, if the election were declared null and void, then "Obama's" Electors would not be allowed to vote in the Electoral College.
No. They can't. Check "Faithless Elector" laws.
