He is known to be a man of integrity and honor.

But none of that is proof against ignorance and group think. Carter is simply wrong, and is also so stubborn as to refuse to consider the possibility that he was taught incorrectly.

Just because some people posting on internet blogs don’t agree with a judicial ruling doesn’t mean that the ruling is wrong. Judicial rulings have to stand the test of time, not unlike the application of the scientific method: is the ruling replicated by different courts with different attorneys, judges and justices, over time. Eventually an incorrect ruling will be reversed but it can take a considerable amount of time to accomplish that.
The legislative branch can also render a bad court ruling moot by passing countering legislation.
Only about five members of Congress have ever mentioned Article II, Section 1 natural born citizenship as a legitimate issue and several of them are no longer in Congress.
Members of Congress can seek a Writ of Quo Warranto against an ineligible elected official which forces that official to prove that they are indeed elgible for the position they hold. No members of Congress ever sought a Writ of Quo Warranto.
The voters can get rid of an ineligible elected offical in the next election.
