I understand what she is doing but ...

we already have LAWS that a President MUST be a citizen.

Is there some reason why we can’t ENFORCE EXISTING LAWS?

It's an expressed show of force in a "non-confrontational" form. It becomes a matter of record, going forward, to prevent (re-)election of frauds. The purpose is pointedly for what you mention. What lawmaker would not support this?

The left’s mentality regarding laws, contracts, vows, and Constitutions

is that they are not as valid as contemporary “wisdom” articulated by a few elite individuals.

Holding said elites to old standards is simply binding them to outdated rules which were based on less knowledge than is available now to the elites.

Funny you should ask. Yes. The reason is that we are a nation of men, not laws. The sooner the people wake up to this fact, the better.

I'm not being sarcastic in the least.

I am NOT a Lawyer.

Here is a link to the relevant law. (Section 303(b) of the Federal Election Campaign Act (2 U.S.C. 433(b))). Please follow the link, and read the section before commenting.

I don't see anything in there actually enforcing the Constitutional requirement that POTUS be a "natural born citizen".

This amendment to 2 U.S.C. 433 adds such enforcement. It should have been done back in '71.

I am NOT a lawyer.
