Would you legal eagles please take one moment to read the post at the link below? Am I showing my ignorance or is there any merit to the idea?

Thanks!
Legally, this isn't going to have a direct impact.
The documents he puts in evidence may be worth a lot to the lawyer who ultimately gets to the effective legal proceeding (if ever). But at this point, I think most of us know what is available.
The real impact if any will be on the media. They will try to avoid him. They may get away with it; they may not. He has thought about it and recognizes what the objective of his effort is. He is the ultimate manager--I am not inclined to look at the racial implications but here is an outstanding American citizen who isn't likely to be accused of pursuing a racial agenda.
If anyone were able to get to the documents he uses, that might be helpful. The key things are the two live Kenya birth certificates that we know about. And affidavits about where they came from and how they got here. He isn't going to have the originals but they exist and Orly knows where they are.
"The judicial Power shall extend to all Cases, in Law and Equity, arising under this Constitution, the Laws of the United States, and Treaties made, or which shall be made, under their Authority;--to all Cases affecting Ambassadors, other public ministers and Consuls;--to all Cases of admiralty and maritime Jurisdiction;--to Controversies to which the United States shall be a Party;--to Controversies between two or more States;--between a State and Citizens of another State;--between Citizens of different States;--between Citizens of the same State claiming Lands under Grants of different States, and between a State, or the Citizens thereof, and foreign States, Citizens or Subjects.
In all Cases affecting Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls, and those in which a State shall be Party, the supreme Court shall have original Jurisdiction. In all the other Cases before mentioned, the supreme Court shall have appellate Jurisdiction, both as to Law and Fact, with such Exceptions, and under such Regulations as the Congress shall make."
An article on THE ORIGINAL JURISDICTION OF THE SUPREME COURT,
"The backlash of state sovereignty sentiment resulted in the proposal and ratification of the Eleventh Amendment, which did not, however, affect the direct flow of original jurisdiction to the Court, although those cases to which States were parties were now limited to States as party plaintiffs, to two or more States disputing, or to United States suits against States.1085"
