’ it seems better the Congress decide the matter at the next Joint Session called for that purpose.’
Congress has the authority and duty to decide on the elig of the president, remove the pres (even a sitting pres) if he is found to be inelig to hold that office.
But they have been silent or outright shun their duties for 4 years (since before the 2008 election when many were asking them to address their grievances)
If congress had acted soetoro/obama would not have been installed in the WH!
Congress and supreme court have been passsing the bucks to each other.
Agreed.
However, motivating even a Republican-controlled Congress to decide the eligibility of this sitting president seems politically impossible.
But, if this sitting president wins the next election, Congress will have the opportunity by statute to address the issue when the Joint Session rolls around in January, 2013. A duty, as you know, that for political purposes each and every chose to ignore in 2009.
