First: This is an administrative hearing. Not a trial.

Second: The gist of Team Obama's defense is that somehow, he is "grandfathered in" Having been elected, received the votes of the Electoral College, and having been sworn in by the CJ. Therefore "he don't got to prove nuthin' to nobody."

Third: The Administrative Judge will have to order him off the ballot if he doesn't show.

Fourth: That is the BEGINNING of the legal show, not the end. Because it is at this stage that Team Obama will have to bring suit ... as a PLAINTIFF.

This might stall out on Step 2. OTOH, if the GA boys are playing it straight ... this could be the fast track to the SCOTUS.

As for No. 4, that puts Obama in a brand new position, and if this thing stretches out for years by him trying to fight to be eligible ... well, he’s young enough he can try to run again in 2016, 2020, 2024, etc.

Yes, and it would be OBummer vs. the State of Georgia. ;-)

If his argument is that he is ‘grandfathered in’, then he’s admitting his fault and confirming the facts of the complaint against him.

So he therefore thinks that because he was successful at lying and cheating his way into the Oval, the judge hearing and speaking for the citizens of Georgia should what? Congratulate him on being so clever, and simply say “Grandfathered in - oh, well - whatever. Do as you like Baraky.”?

Pretty obvious that outcome is what he expects. After all, why would some measly Southern judge not follow the example of the entire Congress, along with various and sundry conservative, Constitution-loving pillars of the broadcast community?
