Just as a marriage to an ineligible-to-be-married person, such as a person already married, or one’s sister, or a member of the same gender, is invalid no matter how many upstanding witnesses swore to it, and a proper official performed the ceremony, and all certificates were issued — so to is Barack Obama NOT President, nor ever was President, no matter how many oaths were sworn in front of a million witnesses, Congress and the Supreme Court.
Because he was and remains ineligible to hold the office.
I guess the lack of any Bible in the pic speaks louder than the words themselves........

Dear bvw:
You said it all!
Now, if there just were some way to make it stick!
Actually you hit on why he is eligible to be president even if he were born in Kenya... his father was already married to another woman, which meant his parents had a bigamous void marriage, children born out of wedlock had an easier time asserting US citizenship at that time— the mother only had to live in the US for one year with no age restriction.
Its a dry hole.
Your point is well taken . Now, what if there were children of the invalid marriage ... just as Team Obama has spawned fundamental societal changes?
We have many examples in history of invalid kings, Popes, and usurpers of all kinds. In general, it seems to me that their decrees, laws, appointments, etc. lived on well beyond their tenure in the office they invalidly held.
IOW, what do we do with the Obama Legacy, when his political party remains strong, organized, and very effective, while the other party (I hesitate to say "ours") remains in the control of unprincipled compromisers and cowardly poltroons?
