On that we agree, clearly there is a law that forbids housing soldiers in private homes. However, it does no follow that
***Actually, you make my point here. There really aren’t that many laws prohibiting it. There’s just the constitution. It’s the supreme law of the land. The same constitution says that an ineligible person can’t hold the office of president.

It is not the same kind of untested Constitutional area at all; one is a clear prohibition,
***So... saying the president must be at least 35 years old isn’t a clear prohibition against ineligibility? And that he must have lived in the US for 14 years isn’t clear? And that he must be natural born isn’t clear? Why, all of a sudden? Well, that’s freepin’ easy... because Obama is pushing hard on that one prohibition so the trolls must work overtime to say that one prohibition is clear while the other is not.

meaning NO ACTION MAY BE TAKEN to quarter soldiers in private homes.
***The same constitution says the president must be NBC. And the 20th amendment is clear that it’s the president elect who may fail to qualify, rather than the people who may fail to qualify the president elect.

Prohibition: the act of prohibiting by authority
