“Constitutionally, electors must have standing in court since they actually vote for the president.”

****

Actually, one could argue that without proof of his eligibility to serve as President, the electors would be bound to vote against NObama, i.e. they have a remedy that doesn’t require judicial intervention.

Would they legally be able to do this even if Obama won the vote in their state? Has this ever come up before?

I certainly wouldn’t argue with that reasoning.

The Constitution does not say that the remedy is to not vote for someone who may not be a natural born citizen. It says that they not eligible to become President. It is not against the law for one to vote for them but they cannot become President. If you want to you can vote for your dog. We have the Constitutional right guaranteed to us that we have a natural born citizen as our President. It was written into the Constitution for our protection against having a President with divided or other loyalties. Obama is a prime example as he said he would side with Muslims if there was a choice. He promoted a candidate in Kenya who was against the right of our country to extradite known terrorist against our country. His loyalties are all over the place.

Man with all the talk of eliminating the electoral college in the past....an 0bama win essentially disqualified by the electoral college...riots! CAN WE ALL SAY RIOTS WITH BLOOD IN THE STREETS! (I think there will be sporadic either way, but something like this...it won't be the 0bama did more than lie...)

The charges won't be against 0bama and the faithless Democrat party. They are Teflon angels.

It will be institutional racism, a corrupt college, a conspiracy to keep a black man out of the office, and any other whacko thing they could think up.

So many don't understand the need for the electoral college, how it works, why it should exist, why it should continue to exist....

The electors will vote the President Elect into office under duress and undue influence. At which point since they are in violation of our election laws & Constitution. What is our recourse and do we Republicans have the guts to pursue it? Are we willing to hold the Democrat Party to account? Or will we rollover like so many times before and let the Constitution fall into the dustbin of history, that is the very real question we are faced with. Even now, today before the election, at the request of the people voting, we're asking for a fully vetted candidate on the very basics of what is required to hold the office of President.

It won't be the fact that the Democrat Party committed:

1. a fraud and

2. treason against the American people.

3. the media abetted it, when they had a responsibility to report it.

If this begins to unfold, we need to be ready to educate and help calm the nation.

We then need to be prepared to hang this around the Democrats neck as a negligent act and even high treason.
