“An elected & executive cannot be removed from office over eligibility alone. It’s simply not constitutional.”
It would provoke an impeachment, IMO or a constitutional crisis and there is no precedent. Knowing that legal scholars can disagree over anything I wouldn’t be so confident as you are that he can’t be removed on eligibility alone. But I expect he would be impeached for lying. That would be much more likely.
“All that could be accomplished, is to create more anger and resentment of Obama among those of us who already oppose him, and give the Dims an opening to attack Cruz.”
I don’t follow your logic. I don’t see why that would be. Look at what happened to Nixon. When evidence came out that he had been lying and covering things up, his own party turned on him.
I Barry has been lying about a foreign birth, Ted Cruz has a better claim on eligibility and Dems wouldn’t be able to attack him without damning Barry.
It requires an impeachment and a conviction to remove a sitting president. Impeachment alone had no substantive effect on BJ Clinton. If our elected congressmen had anything like the character and integrity to take that action, we wouldn’t now be in the situation where Freepers are claiming that Ted Cruz is the only man who can save the republic. QED.
Nixon was never impeached and removed from office. The Dims will never turn against “the won”, no matter how many lies he tells, or how many dogs he eats. IOW: It ain’t gonna’ happen. But if Obama were removed from office for not being born on U.S. Soil & lying about it, it would be absolutely impossible to diferentiate, in the minds of the no-info voters, Ted Cruz not being born on U.S. soil & telling the truth. Never put your faith in governments instituted of men.
