“But if that indeed does happen, then wouldn’t the birth certificate issue have to be addressed and consequently proof of its existence”
The SCOTUS has already denied a petioner re. Bam’s birth certificate, which in effect ruled on the legitmacy for Bam to be POTUS.
That SCOTUS decision only found that the plaintiff in that earlier case did not have standing. The Court cannot and has not decided any other issues beyond standing—until a plaintiff comes along who has standing files a case. It seems as if Cook has standing—that’s why the MSM is finally taking an interest in the debate.
