Do you really and truly think that Biden would step in???

I strongly suggest you read the 25th Amendment to the Constitution.

I find it amazing that anyone would think Biden would take over in view of the fact of his coverup. Doesn’t the cover up constitute fraud???

Then impeach him and say "Hello" to President Nancy Pelosi.

...but I think McCain could be ‘appointed’ to complete Obama’s term.

Again, read the 25th Amendment and also the Presidential Succession Act of 1947. You will find that the losing candidate is nowhere to be found in the line of succession.

BTW, I have indeed read the constitution and while it doesn’t say the person with the next highest number of votes would be put in the position, it also makes no mention of a situation where all of the people in power have committed fraud.

If you read it like you said then you must also have read the 12th and 20th Amendment. A majority of electoral votes is needed for a candidate to be declared president otherwise it goes to Congress. McCain didn't come anywhere near that number.

Hence, unchyarted waters!

All you need to do is read the Constitution and the laws in place. That tells us what to do.

I repeat, we are in uncharted waters. I cannot stress that enough. President Biden(?) or President Pelosi(?)...both of whom will most likely be charged with fraud, along with Hillary. I can read those things until the cows come home but the current scenario is not covered in any of the amendments or anywhere else that I and attorneys that I have worked for have found. I agree that the losing candidate is nowhere to be found in there but neither is anything found on what happens in the current scenario where all principals are accused/charged/indicted for fraud.

If you can cite me an amendment, anywhere in the constitution or the Presidential Succession Act of 1947 that outlilnes the proper steps for replacing an ineligible president with his VP or Speaker of the House or his SOS, all of whom have committed fraud, I will gladly and graciously concede that you are 100% right and I am 100% wrong. I am not trying to be argumentative, I just want to feel that there is a solution to this problem. I am so tired of losing sleep over the condition of our country and where we are headed. Maybe I’m grasping for straws but I know that the answer is somewhere, even if it is not in print.

Frankly, I wouldn’t be too happy with McCain and it would seem the legal President would be Byrd. That is not a comforting thought but I do believe he is a true patriot. His age is disconcerting. At that age you have to wonder if there is a senility issue. What a mess we are in!!!
