Has anyone proposed the ramifications if Obama is found to be unqualified to be president? Just shrug our shoulders and “move on?”
That appears to be the arrogant and lazy lamestream media’s plan.
Well, it would be the 1st time a usurper has been elected POTUS.
Constitutional crisis at the max. I believe the whole barry “group” should be detained and arrested for treason...especially those who “verified” his eligibility.
If barry is shown not to be eligible, I would assume the whole gang should go.
We need some FReepers who know the Constitution like the back of their hands to sound in on this one.
Nothing would be taboo... from the largest (cancellation of Obamacare) to the mundane (U.S. post offices that were "dedicated" by B.H.O. while in office).
Actually, we do need to think about that. My quick thought would be that the VP becomes President because the President is "unable (e.g., ineligible) to discharge the powers and duties of his office" (25th Amendment).
There aren't many people who would be worse than Chairman O, but Biden might be one of them.
Of course, that is no reason to ignore the Constitution, but it's worthy of thought.

Civil lawsuits galore (false impersonation, defrauding donors and buyers of his books), and perhaps criminal charges also associated with document fraud, SSNs, etc.
Shrug shoulders and move on—that will probably be the outcome.
That's certainly what the GOP would like us to do. The States, though, would have the prerogative and the duty to ignore every law and dictate signed by Barry or any of his appointees. Of course, they should be doing this anyway since practically everything coming out of FEDGOV is unconstitutional.

It would create a legal nightmare that would drag out for decades unless congress has the wisdom to pass some sort of blanket resolution like “everything rolls back to 2008”, and all private claims for damages to be handled in a single suit... or at least a series of categorized suits.
This is why even the supremes don’t want to touch it, and also why Obama KNEW he could get away with it once he was elected.
Like the national debt, all of our elected officials want to just push it down the road for someone else to deal with... but the farther it gets pushed down the road, the more damage it does.
I guess they think that if we can just get through this presidency, the problem will go away on it’s own.. but it won’t... even after Obama is long gone.
