It only shows that the Dems nominated him.

No, it says that they certify he was "duly nominated." That means the DNC owns the responsibility for having checked his qualifications.

Wait half a sec, folks.

The Constitution uses the odd words “eligible to the Office of President.” While one would think qualification should occur before nomination, it can be challenged when the electoral votes are counted. There is evidently no precedent for what’s happening now, but if Obama wins on Tuesday, we are not finished with the issue — not by a long shot.

I mean, can anybody here imagine Chief Justice John Roberts and his conservative brothers on the Court sitting back on Tuesday night and saying, “Oh, drat!”?
