John Kerry's presence in the SENATE (let alone the Presidency) at the same time as his presence (without his objection) in the Hanoi Museum's Hall of Fame (because of his aid and comfort to the enemy) is unconstitutional. A strict reading (actually the only possible interpretation) of the section cited would lead you to conclude that he should have been barred from the Senate by the rest of the Senators when he showed up for his first day of work, regardless of the will of the voters.

Interesting sidebar: without direct election of Senators, this could have been easily done without the hue and cry about subverting "the will of the people."

Interest sidebar II: Why wouldn't an effort to expel him from the Senate once he's defeated for President be successful?

You got to be kidding, "Arlen Spector" will be chairing the Senate Judiciary Committee.
