Mr. CC;

Go fly a kite.

Sincerely,

Hussein.

Exactly. That's what most seem to miss: if he just ignores the whole thing, it will most likely blow over (from where he's standing).

Before he enter on the Execution of his Office, he shall take the following Oath or Affirmation: — "I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

Unfortunately, the Constitution does not specify WHO administers the Oath! Should the Chief Justice refuse to swear him in (tradition, not requirement), I'm sure Speaker Pelosi would be happy to do the job. Bouyed by a sympathetic-majority Congress, he would not be impeached as ineligible. Considering that Congressionally-passed bills become law after 30 days if left unsigned, even if his signature is invalid the bills still become law after a month (to wit: if he's not legally President, then whoever is/would-be legally President didn't veto it, so it becomes law).

Put simply: so long as he doesn't show that paper, he has the momentum to occupy the office. His opposition won't (he supposes) be able to stop him for want of an unseen paper that proves what most will consider a mere technicality.

Houston, we have a problem.
