Here is what I took away from reading the resolutions.

I think those lawmakers seeking to amend Art. 2 were not anxious to have to go to the SCOTUS after the fact, but to do away with the entire issue ahead of time so as to prevent anyone from appealing to SCOTUS to block Arnold S. or any future candidate with a similar citizenship handicap.

So, no - going to SCOTUS after all is said and done, votes counted, is not ever likely to happen. That’s the whole “We the People” / will of the people angle here. There is no actual vetting for Presidential candidates except by the people. If they don’t vet thoroughly, as in the case of obama, tough crapola, you get stuck with what you voted for. “Nobodys’ fault but yer own” kind of a thing.

So, those that seek the Art. 2 amendment don’t want this to go to SCOTUS, because there is a damn good chance that SCOTUS will rule to restrict the Presidency to those born here. Then the progressives would have to do a long and messy battle to change or challenge the ruling. Lets face it, it is primarily the left who want to open the US Presidency specifically to allow naturalized people to run. The left have more means to install a chosen mole than our Forefathers could ever have imagined. Yet they claim the exact opposite is true. And they keep saying “it’s for the children”.

Makes ones blood run cold to read some of that stuff. Such deep and devious people mean no go for this country.

Just my humble opinion, but they have already installed a mole.

Nobody is going to get the Constitution amended over this issue. The electors will continue to interpret and apply the NBC clause in a reasonable way. Nobody is going to elect Prince Charles or Putin. ;-)
