The question about UhBama’s Constitutional qualification to hold office for me focuses on the “natural born” aspect. Apart from his sliding popularity, if a single state manages to pass an election law that requires affirmative proof that candidates are fully qualified for the offices they are running for, then this issue will come to a head before the 2012 primary season. And if UhBama’s legal team cannot intimidate those states into giving him a pass, then he will find a graceful way to decline to run for a second term.
While UhBama will only be with us for the remainder of his sole term in office, what concerns me even more about this issue is the distinct unwillingness of the federal judiciary to allow any legal case that touches on the issue to proceed to discovery. We will have these weak milk-toast federal judges with us for the remainder of their life terms.
As far as I am concerned, every time a judge finds a flimsy excuse to dismiss these cases, justice and the Constitution itself has just suffered a grave insult.
Absolutely right!
