--The case alleges Congress failed to follow the Constitution, which "provides that Congress must fully qualify the candidate 'elected' by the Electoral College Electors."

The case alleges Congress failed to follow the Constitution, which "provides that Congress must fully qualify the candidate 'elected' by the Electoral College Electors."

But, if I'm not mistaken, it asks the court to declare Obama ineligible. IMO, the remedy should be that the question is returned to the legislative branch for the Congress to determine a legal process and procedure for determining if a president-elect is "fully qualified" under the Constutition.

Then the court can review that law and determine if it violates the Constitution or is an appropriate exercise of legislative authority and discretion.

This has got to be about the future now. We cannot continue to have this loosey-goosey non-process for determining who is eligible to serve as President.
