Then what is the point of the “natural born” provision in the consitution if no one has the standing to hold a candidate to account?

The Constitution doesn't say anything about candidates...

So if the general public is dumb enough to vote the guy in, then any citizen would have from Nov 5 to Jan 20 to contest it with standing.

So come Nov. 5 if the winner is ruled ineligible to hold office do we have a rerun or does the candidate in 2nd place take office in Jan?
