I agree with Vieiro that the standing doctrine has been misapplied by the courts. And I would go further than Vieiro in seeking to apply 18 USC § 242 and 42 USC § 1983 not only against Obama but against the Democratic National Committee on the grounds that their role in certifying Obama as eligible under state electoral laws was an action under color of law. I differ with him in my view that the counting of the votes and determination of eligibility by the Joint Session of Congress may not be second-guessed by the courts and that the Constitution has vested the exclusive power in the House/Senate to remove him.
