What if they won't take it up, because the Constitution is clear and there is no "constitutional question?" And if he can't prove he's natural born, maybe they don't want to put their power to the test. If they say he may not be POTUS, how are they going to enforce their ruling? And if they can't, do they want THAT precedent?

The Constitution is clear that the president must be a natural born American. All they need do is ask to see his full birth certificate. Surely that’s not asking too much? If it says he was born in Kenya then its clear as crystal that he’s NOT natural born.
The Congress wouldn't ignore such a ruling by the U.S. Supreme Court. If they did, there would be another revolution.
“... If they say he may not be POTUS, how are they going to enforce their ruling? And if they can’t, do they want THAT precedent?”
That’s why they’re calling this a constitutional crisis. It will be a nightmare.
DNC should’ve made bo provide this way back when.
I believe that the President is sworn into office by the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. If the Supreme Court rules that Obama cannot be president then I do not see Justice Roberts participating in the swearing in ceremony.
