'You mean -- the presumed de jure &de facto, right??? "

Not according to the law.

'And yet none of them, even Nancy Pelosi, have ever declared that he is a "natural born citizen" and thus qualified to be President"

Can you point out for me in the US Code, or the US Constitution where it's the responsibility of the US Speaker of the House to declare anyone "eligible" for the office of President or Vice President?

"That's your presumption but it still doesn't make him a natural born citizen or qualified for the office that he sits in, does it??? "

No, that is the opinion of every judge in every case that has heard the birther, claims. If it's my opinion, it seems that it has been supported by a large number of Judges, including those currently sitting on the US Supreme Court. How about that?

"You mean "failed" or "refused" to do so."

Argumentative.

according to the Constitution which is the Supreme Law of the Land.

I think you need to direct that question to a whole lot of state Secretaries of States who accepted Pelosi's affidavits at face value.

Did any of those justices hear the case on the merits or declare Obama to be a natural born citizen and thus qualified under Article II???

By your own words, the best you have is a Presumed President, presuming of course your definition of "natural born citizen" that differs from the traditional historical one handed down to us through the writings of the Founders, and scholars, and lawyers, and Justices of the Supreme Court in words easily understood by engineers, businessmen, farmers, doctors, janitors, cleaning ladies, and yes, even by lawyers and professors who are all collecting their public pensions.
