Yea, it worked so well for Gerald Ford.
There would be no sympathy for a man and a party, who knew, or should have known, that their standard bearer was not eligible to the Oficce of President, and allowed him to represent them anyway. None.
Likely it would destroy the Democratic party.

I do WISH you were correct, but I don’t think more than 2% of democrats or independants would consider it to be more than a technicality. I think 20% of Republicans would agree that since the mother was a citizen, well, close enough.
Again, this does not make me happy, but I think people just do not much care. Put another way... I think a majority of folks would be happy to drop the restriction entirely for future elections.
