"If he is found to be ineligible to be president, all EO’s, all laws he signs, all orders he issued to the military, all cabinet appointments and their changes to regulations will all become null and void. Essentially, we reset back to January 19, 2009."

Complete and utter nonsense. Please show me the "If he is found to be ineligible clause" in the US Constitution.

Well, if you're a liberal, it would be Article I, Section 8, Clause 3, otherwise known as the interstate commerce clause. If that clause can be used to constitutionally authorize Congress to pass a law saying it's illegal to possess a firearm within 1,000 feet of a school zone (which is how the Clinton Justice Department defended it in US v. Lopez), then that clause can achieve just about anything.

Just make some crazy argument that any act by Obama has an effect on interstate commerce and voila. :)

I don’t have to find an “if he is found to be ineligible” clause. Just look at the Constitution. It has clear instructions on how a bill must be passed into law as well as who is eligible to be president. Only a duly sworn, eligible president can sign a bill into law. Not a usurper. Besides, if it is found that the zero is ineligible and for some reason the courts and Congress refuse to remove him from office, there WILL be a rebellion.
