I was under the impression that this was part of the process of the Secretaries of State when they certified the elected officials. ???
Not true?
Aren’t candidates for the office of president supposed to supply their credentials when they submit their vitaes? Or, if they just sign a sworn statement to the effect that they are eligible and it turns out that they aren’t, then isn’t that voter fraud?
”3. If, at the time fixed for the beginning of the term of the President, the President elect shall have died, the Vice President elect shall become President. If a President shall not have been chosen before the time fixed for the beginning of his term, or if the President elect shall have failed to qualify, then the Vice President elect shall act as President until a President shall have qualified; and the Congress may by law provide for the case wherein neither a President elect nor a Vice President elect shall have qualified, declaring who shall then act as President, or the manner in which one who is to act shall be selected, and such person shall act accordingly until a President or Vice President shall have qualified.”
Basically, Congress is instructed to act in two instances, the death of a President elect OR "if the President elect shall have failed to qualify". Since they are instructed to act, they MUST be made aware that each circumstance either exist or doesn't exist. This means that Congress had to know whether or not the President elect met all "qualifying" requirements for the office of President, including eligibility standards. They didn't perform their job or if they did, none of them admit to having done so. They are all guilty of breaking their oaths of office to "support this Constitution" in Article six. By the way, since the text reads "if the President elect shall have failed to qualify", it is HIS duty to submit proof of qualifications and not the burden of Congress to beg him to do so. If he doesn't submit, then he has "failed to qualify" and CANNOT legally be President.
My proposal would have the states require a copy of his "Proof" to Congress be inspected by the states before any acts of his can affect their citizens. Basically, ensuring that the states will do what Congress fails, forgets, or refuses to do according to the instructions of section three.
I understand that the Democrats undertook a "Secretaries of State" project in the wake of the 2000 election. Its goal appears to be to oust ALL Republican secretaries of state.
Let's examine what they've been working on. This is CRUCIAL for the midterm and 2012 elections.

I was also under the impression that the SoS of each state was the "gatekeeper." I am also under the impression that by the time the usurper has gotten on a ballot, it's already too late.
