I would venture to guess that they would surpass that by a mile. This Constitutional crisis wrought by Obama and the economic downturn could give this Civil War scope.
It's not like Obambi would be blameless - he WAS a Constitutional Law professor, and knows full well what his lying actions will wreak. Ignorance will not be an excuse.
He seems to know very well what he has done, his legal firm is trying to overturn this, his people are looking to change the Constitution... but it's too late.
He is going to make this a national crisis.
You have to remember that “Constitutional Law” has very little to do with the actual Constitution,
and everything to do with “case law” (ie, distortions) concerning the Constitution.
“It’s not like Obambi would be blameless - he WAS a Constitutional Law professor....”
Please stop spreading this myth. Obama was NOT a Constitutional Law professor: He was a law LECTURER. There is a world of difference between a professor and a lecturer.
I think this is really the answer. Obama cannot be scrutinized any more thoroughly than any other candidate. If the “requirement” is certification of birth by a state in the USA, then the eligibility requirements have been satisfied. Were any of the other candidates required to produce “original” BC, or was a COLB issued by the state of their birth sufficient? The state of Hawaii has “authorized” that the orignial BC is on file in the “vault” in the dept of vital statistics in Hawaii. Anyone requesting a proof of birth receives a COLB or equivalent, and not a copy of the original. I live in SC and if I request a copy of my BC, I recieve a wallet sized “Birth Certification Card” and not a copy of the orignial “Birth Certificate” with parents names, hospital, and delivering physician. I think the question is what was accepted by the other candidates as verification of US citzenship and of being “natural born”. If no one else was required to deliver an actual birth certificate, but were allowed to show a COLB, or Birth Certification Card, then Obama should not be singled out and required to provide more proof than the other candidates.
He hasn't produced his school records from Columbia or Harvard. It's entirely possible that he is the product of affirmative action "social promotion". An academic incompetent whose position was "purchased". His ignorance of the number of states in the U.S. and the history of Pearl Harbor suggests he's not particularly bright. It's amazing what can be accomplished with lots of money and a well placed teleprompter.
