They might even know that according to the strict interpretation of the rules, he isn’t eligible, but they don’t care.
Inherent in the leftist worldview is the assumption that the discretion of those alive in the here and now takes precedence over any rule written in the past.

Even the Supreme Court isn’t interested in this issue. Thirteen different appeals challenging Obama’s eligibility have reached the High Court on Petitions for a Writ of Certiorari (a petition to have the Court hear the appeal before the full Court).
The way the Court works is that each Justices’ clerk reads each petition and makes a recommendation to their Justice. If any of the nine Justices is interested, they then request a response brief from the other side (Obama). If even one of the nine Justices requests a response, the appeal is placed on the “discuss” list for Friday conferences and it takes four Justices to agree to hear an appeal before the full Court. If no Justice is interested, the appeal goes on the automatic “Denial” list. Thus far, not one Obama eligiblity lawsuit has made it to the “discuss” list.
