It is unlawful to for the Vice President-elect to assume the Office of the Vice President if the Vice President-elect is ineligible to assume the Office of the President of the United States pursuant to the 12th Amendment.
It is not unlawful for the President-elect to assume the Office of the President of the of the United States. The Eligibility Clause applies after the ineligible President assumes the office. The only consequence of a violation of the Eligibility Clause is that it voids the US Constitution and necessitates a convention of the states to develop a new governing document. The Judicial Branch and the Legislative Branch are powerless to prevent the majority of American people from choosing an ineligible President as their leader and voiding the US Constitution.
The American people have fired all executive level officers of the Executive Branch, Legislative Branch and Executive Branch, except Obama and Biden, by electing an ineligible President to assume the Office of the President of the United States on Jan. 20, 2009. Unfortunately, they refuse to leave their offices.
Hey everybody, let’s have a constitutional convention at Sven’s house.
It would take the legislatures of 34 states to call a constituional convention and it would take the legislatures of 38 states to pass new constitutional articles/amendments.
Currently Democrats control 12 state Senates and 14 state Houses of Representatives. Nebraska has a unicameral legislature that is ostensibly non-partisan but conservative.
All together Republicans control the legislatures of 30 states, Democrats control 11, 8 are split and 1 is non-partisan.
If the Democrats stuck together, they could defeat a constitutional convention and anything that was proposed that they didn’t like.
