This is the first thing that I have seen posted today (from the birther side) on this subject that wasn’t nuttier than a squirrel turd. Thank you for that. If his father being a non citizen of the U.S. makes him ineleigible AND there is stare decisis on this in multiple Supreme court cases, then he has no choice but to step down and he just did it to himself by releasing the long form.
Chances of the USSC having the collective balls to remove him? About as good as a pizza at a weight watchers convention.
You are probably right.
I think someone should run for president, who is a native born citizen, and has both parents that are illegals. Then someone like an elector should challenge that person. If that person doesn't have standing then I don't think anyone in the universe would have standing in this case.
“...his father being a non citizen of the U.S. makes him ineligible...”
Except it doesn’t.
The point that is lost in discussing those cases is that the language quoted is merely “dicta” is is not the holding of the cases. “Stare decisis” applies to the holdings of a case not to the dicta..
You newcomers to this issue are so far behind the curve.
Since 2008, the question has always been the nationality of the baby's father and the mothers age at time of birth.
This issue has never been a reaction to Obamas (sic) election or his policies while being the presumed president. It has NEVER been an issue of his birth LOCATION
Only the uninformed and the misdirection specialists insist on framing the debate over birth LOCATION.
