What sort of harm could ensue to whom if this were to be completely brought out into the open, the entire country aware, demanding his removal, etc? I would really like to ponder a discussion of the specifics.

(1) There would be widespread rioting in the streets. Not only would it be seen as a racial issue, but you would have plenty of leftist groups (that don't care about the Constiution) formenting violence as a method to hold onto power. A significant percentage of the country would be trying to find some way to keep him in office.

(2) Someone would make the case to that not only should Obama be removed from office, but that he was never legally president to begin with. That means every bill and executive order he has signed immediatly becomes invalid.

The most likely outcome would be (imho) a law or ruling stating that Obama is a NBC because his mother was a citizen, watering down the NBC requirement even more. And opening the door for a foriegn born (and raised) president. One that never even lived in the tUSA, and whose only tie to the USA is have one parent that was a US citizen.

I don't mean to criticize, but I think you grossly understimate the results that may occur. Your conclusions appear to be based on rule of law and the reasonableness of the populace, and I can't see people being reasonable about this. Please see my post above.

This kind of negativism is damning our country to hell.

I’m sick of it.

If you really think that would happen, that means you think our Constitutional Republic is now dead and that most Americans are fine with that.

I’m sick of people waving the white flag and saying “it’s all hopeless”.

Cowards don’t win wars. And this is a war. Anyone who thinks it’s hopeless should shut up and get out of the way.

I think that with the recent polling figures of congress and the distrust that the American people have of politicians on both sides of the isles. Taken along with the divisions between the tea party and the liberal / socialists .. congress may well have a hard time governing with all the protesters lining up on capital hill.
It wouldn’t just be the TEA party .. the socialists would come out as they did for Obama’s inauguration. Mix the two groups together and I do not see such an orderly outcome as you envision.
