Being elected does not make someone a legal President. Being elected is step one. Having the Electoral College elect you is step two. Having Congress accept and ratify the Electoral College results is step three. The Twentieth Amendment, requiring you to prove your eligibility to Congress is step 4. The eligibility requirements are quite simple and begin with the words "No person". If you don't meet the requirements, you can NEVER be a legal President. period. Whether Congress acts upon this as required in the Twentieth Amendment, Section Three makes no difference whatsoever as to whether or not YOU "qualified". If you didn't prove your eligible, you didn't qualify. If Congress didn't ask you to prove you are eligible, you still did not qualify.

This is legitimate argument that has basis in fact and in the very language of the U.S. Constitution yet you somehow feel FR is diminished by it. How very Alinsky of you.

What possible good comes of pursuing this approach? It’s been pursued for nearly seven years and led to a dead end every time. What concrete steps are you proposing to turn the tide other than creating yet another rant thread?

Did Congress ask Ronald Reagan to prove his eligibility?
