"Procedurally duly elected and sworn in,..."

Yes, but only because the Democrat party chose to undertake fraud in nominating BO as their candidate. In effect, the party assumed (or ignored) his eligibility question -- choosing instead to assume that the first black (or at least half black) candidate would win the election, and thus sweep them into power.

My personal frustration is that there is no court will to take the case or procedurally declare any plaintiff to have sufficient standing to bring suit. Surely there is a means to enforce a Constitutional provision. But since we have (a) a willing Congress; (b) a willing media; (c) a complicit court... I frankly wonder if the Constitution has now been rendered meaningless in most regards.

Ladies and gentlemen, the country has been overthrown and it happened right in front of our eyes.

You mention standing. I have posted my belief that the Supreme Court would be wrong in finding that plaintiffs have no standing. When one considers that the president of the United States sends our sons and daughters in harm's way, perhaps to be killed, it seems to me that everybody had standing. When Obama' s finger is only inches away from the red button on the nuclear football, it seems to me we all have standing.

With respect to your point about the Constitution disappearing before our eyes, I would be very interested in reading Mark Levin's new book, "Liberty and Tyranny."

Among the doctrines of The Frankfurt School is the concept of The Critical Theory which inculcates cynicism and leads inexorably to nihilism. Any bed rock, any sure foothold on reality should be done away with. So, if this controversy diminishes our respect for the Constitution it has served the left-I would not say that is true if it only diminishes our respect for the Supreme Court.

Yep - without a shot.

The answer is for the states to pass legislation instructing their sec of states to obtain document that candidates meet the citizenship requirements.

We get that done and we don’t need courts.
