Impeachment implies that hes the POTUS. If all of this is true then hes not the POTUS Excellent point I will never again use that word in reference to the Kenyan. He was sworn in by Chief Justice Roberts on Jan 20th, subsequent to Congress certifying the electoral college results. So whether engaged in some fraud or not to get there, he's the duly elected POTUS, and can only be removed via impeachment or by kicking his sorry a** out of the White House after the next election.

My vote is on the impeachment option!

He was sworn in by Chief Justice Roberts on Jan 20th, subsequent to Congress certifying the electoral college results. Congress certified the count, not BO's eligibility. Even though it's common to say the the Chief Justice "swears in" the President, that's really not correct. The Chief Justice, by custom only, *administers* the oath. The Constitution just requires the oath be sworn.
The president elect, if qualified, becomes President, not upon the swearing in, but rather at noon on January 20th, following the election, provided he has previously executed the oath.
