Yes, those are good examples of what I meant. Nobody would doubt that Pluto existed before anyone observed it. (Note: This is ignoring questions raised by quantum physics, I know, but it's good enough for our purposes.)
So something can BE without having been PROVED. What's the relevance? Only this.
The Constitution requires that the President BE a "natural born citizen", among other things. That passage does not say anything about proving it. It is violated only if the President is, as a matter of fact, not a natural born citizen. It is not violated if he simply hasn't proven it.
That does not mean there aren't other constitutional provisions which would call for validation, but that's another post. I have to go do something right now.
Great! We agree completely!
I can’t figure out how to force the issue but for sensing his COLB is flawed and needs to be tested, as he is the one who put it in the public realm.
Still, I have not figured out how to force even that.
