Hey! Why stop there?!!? If we're suddenly such a fan of judicial solutions, let's just have them install Sarah Palin as president as she'd be more likely to uphold the Constitution!?! Why have elections at all?

That’s just silly. If Obama were unqualified, it would not affect Biden’s status as VP. And if he’s VP and there is no P, the Constitution says he’d become P. The Constitution could not in any way be construed so as to land Palin in office. It could, albeit without much precident, be so construed as to elevate Biden. Sometimes I enjoy reductio ad absurdum. Not in this case.
