Sometimes things are decided by courts. And sometimes things are decided by public opinion. Obama was elected president in 2008 and re-elected in 2012. Harris was elected VP in 2020. Both people had eligibility problems. But the public decided. Both were eligible.

So unfortunately, case closed. No court will touch it now. There’s not even a 1% chance of that happening. Don’t get me wrong! It makes for an interesting discussion. But that’s it.

Here’s another example. Among other things, a person must have resided in the United States for 14 years to be eligible for the presidency. In 1928 Herbert Hoover ran for president. He had resided in the US for 14 years, but not for the last 14 (he was overseas doing relief work).

There was some question as to Hoover’s eligibility. The public decided. Hoover was elected.

However, the difference is that many democrats now need a means of removing her. So, they could have a motive for seeing this now as the excuse they were looking for.

Obama’s eligibility was ignored, while they looked into McCain being born in Panama. For some reason McCain was less of a US citizen than Obama. Look! Over there! Squirrel!
