This thread, from premise to nearly ALL the responses, is a prime example of a malady that permeates ‘our side’ — chronic inability to deal with reality due to over-investment in fantasy scenarios. Burn enough energy in these useless discussions and what will you have left for the hard slogging of every-day reality ?
Hussein IS the President ‘til, at least, 2012 — barring impeachment or a similar coup, god forbid. The whole fabric of the Executive / Legislative / Judicial infrastructure will successfully conspire to prevent the kind of Constitutional ‘crisis’ such a removal inevitably MUST produce. Look what happened when ‘we’ had Clintoon dead in our sights and managed to pull off an impeachment trial, even. The ‘establishment’ successfully conspired to assure themselves they wouldn’t have to deal with the ‘removal’ crisis. End of story.
There is simply NO WAY in Reality that the ‘Birther’ fantasy plays out with Hussein being expelled. At best, one may hope that a procedural upgrade or merely adequate media ‘coverage’ in future elections obviates the operation of this flaw in the Presidential nomination / election process. ( Similarly, one might also — fervently ! — hope that the ‘open primary’ flaw is appropriately addressed. )
In the meantime, how ‘bout we expend our powder on ‘live’ targets, not useless fantasies ?

How can someone not Constitutionally eligible to the office of President, assuming that to be the case, BE President? It's logically impossible.
