In the last few days there have been several posts about this trial and the procedure of/for the three different complaints. I look at my copy of the Constitution and take note that in Article II that the Fed Congress only specifies there will be electors acting under the Fed stipulations. There is no mention of what constitutes/defines a ‘natural born citizen’. The same Article specifies actions/duties of the specified electors, but there is still no directions as to what constitutes/defines a ‘natural born citizen’. I believe that it is this ‘hole’ or lack of definition that in either place in Article II that Obama and his enablers have been using. However , Article II also specifies electors from the ‘respective’ states shall submit votes of the electors to congress. An important question for me is ‘If a state does not submit any elector ballots would that hold all other ballots from being certified because the full body of states has not been part of the congressional certification?. Would this allow Obama to just keep on ruling as POTUSA? I would hope that there would be simply Obama’s name left off the ballots for certification and all elector ballots from all states be submitted to Congress.

The Constitution isn't a dictionary. Lots of things aren't defined therein.

Good question. If you choose to look into it let me know what you find.

Another good question. If you choose to look into it let me know what you find.

....well...if 0bambi (peas be upon him) is not eligible to be President then the 2 term rule doesn't apply to him....

I guess that's why he wants to "consolidate government departments"

To your first question, Congress counts the electoral ballots, and there is a winner, even if a state does not send electoral ballots. So, yes, assuming he gets a majority without GA' ballots, Obama retains the office.

The electors are bound to the party, and assuming for the sake of argument that the DEM party takes GA, then those electoral ballots will be cast for Obama or whoever the DEM party decides to substitute. Even if Obama's name is not on the precinct ballots, the party is free to put Obama's name on the electoral ballots.

The primary defect in the last election lies with Congress, which is about as corrupt and useless institution as can be found in all of history.
