The clause wasn’t so much lost as ignored, for Obama. The USSC is more than happy to jump in and declare something un-lost, even if it queers things in the process (pun intended).
Which is why we could use a Bork amendment, but first things first. Let’s win and get the destructive-Democrat factor as marginalized as possible.
A distinction without a difference, except for describing the mechanism that renders it inoperable.
In my wildest dreams, Obama's presidency becomes recognized as improvidently granted. That can happen - it does not undo anything he did, all his acts are valid. The invalidity is only the action of Congress in making him president-elect, and that is a failure of Congress, not the usurper.
Who knows how the history will be written. Either there is an awakening, or not. That depends on honestly by the public-perception machine.
