Senator: Resolve eligibility in court (LA's Vitter on Barry's eligibility)

I'd LOVE to give this a big WooHoo but, to date, EVERY single challenge to Barry's eligibility status has been dismissed due to the Plaintiff not "having standing before the court" to bring the action. So, here's the question: If an American citizen lacks the standing in a court of law to bring a fundamental question of Constitutionality, who DOES have the standing?? These cases SHOULD NOT be dismissed by the judges out of hand on the basis of . . . . . ???

This is a fundamental Constitutional issue and the issue deserves being addressed and heard in federal court and ANY American citizen should be eligible to bring the action. If not, what function does the Constitution actually serve (rhetorical question - it doesn't trequire you to respond)??

"Supposedly," an "injured" person(s) should have standing.

I always thought that a naturalized citizen who's refused a place on the ballots, for obvious reasons, would have standing to sue, demanding ALL candidates "prove" their eligibility beyond doubt to level the playing field and to be treated equally under the law.
