Is Trump Working Eligibility Issue on Behalf of Democrats?

Wow..... there is a post by one I have missed for a while.

I have been calling Trump the designated birther for a while now. My thought was that he was designated by the Republicans. He seems to be running as a Republican. I’ve seen him on Cavuto several times and he seems more Republican than Democrat.

The concept of being designated by the Democrats to raise and harp on the issue requires some thought but is not to be rejected out of hand.

Any way, he is the designated birther and having no political credentials or current office to protect is untouchable

Yes BOR was rude, but did you expect anything different? He is going on proof that BHO was born in Hawaii because he placed birth announcements in the paper. ANYONE can do that without any documents. Simply call into a newspaper and place an ad.

I said legitimate doubt. Liars, hucksters and frauds can pretend all they want. Doesn’t change the truth.

"but I remember hearing that it matters whether the person is considered a “de facto president”, because if the person ever meets the criteria for “de facto president” then the actions they took are legally binding just as if they were actually eligible for the job."

Lets take a little look at this from a different angle for a second.

The Fourteenth Amendment says we are all equal under the law.

" 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

How would this "de facto" be treated in the case of a man accused of having sex with a minor who he assumed was of legal age? Everyone in the bar assumed that she was of legal age. She represented herself as such. The bartender facing charges of serving alcohol to a minor was fooled as well by her fake ID. Would "de facto" save these folks from being sent to jail? If "de facto" applies anywhere at all doesn't it have to apply everywhere to be considered an equally enforced legal concept?

There are hundreds of cases that have ruled out the "de facto" concept such as the one I have just described. Isn't this legal precedent for how "de facto" should be viewed in the case of a usurper?

Your thoughts?
