How has every member of Congress legally recognized Obama as president?

Who handed the presidential powers to Obama and under what authority, considering that Congress never *legally* certified that he was the winner of the electoral vote?

That is just stupid! Congress DID certify the election. Sorry they didn’t say the words YOU wanted, but Congress has the right to handle it any way they wish.

And in case you missed it, Congress - EVERY MEMBER - considers Obama to be the legal President. And not one objected - which must be submitted to the VP in writing, so Cheney KNEW there were no objections, and no memb er has since risen up to say he/she wanted to object but wasn’t allowed to do so.

To pretend that Congress doesn’t fully accept the results of the Electoral College is not just fantasy, but it is lunacy.

“A lawful order cannot be contrary to the US Constitution or laws, and an order given by somebody the Constitution forbids to give orders would be “contrary to the Constitution”.

No. Not if the person is accepted as holding the office, and is exercising the powers of the office. The Constitution does not forbid Obama from signing laws and giving orders until someone presents EVIDENCE that Obama is ineligible, and Congress decides he isn’t qualified and removes him from office. Until then, Obama has the legal right to hold and use the office of the Presidency.
