Obama not president per Constitution, Constitution 101, Natural born citizen requirement trumps Electoral College

“Why has Obama, for over 2 years, employed numerous private and government attorneys to avoid presenting a legitimate birth certificate and college records?”…Citizen Wells and millions of concerned Americans

US President eligibility requirements 

US Constitution
Article II
Section 1

“No person except a natural born citizen, or a citizen of the United States, at the time of the adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the office of President; neither shall any person be eligible to that office who shall not have attained to the age of thirty five years, and been fourteen Years a resident within the United States.”

Twelfth Amendment – Election of President

“then the Vice-President shall act as President, as in the case of the death or other constitutional disability of the President.”

Twentieth Amendment

“If a President shall not have been chosen before the time fixed for the beginning of his term, or if the President elect shall have failed to qualify, then the Vice President elect shall act as President until a President shall have qualified; and the Congress may by law provide for the case wherein neither a President elect nor a Vice President elect shall have qualified, declaring who shall then act as President, or the manner in which one who is to act shall be selected, and such person shall act accordingly until a President or Vice President shall have qualified.”

It is clear from the language above, if you have reading comprehension skills of a fifth grader and an IQ greater than a squirrel, that one must be a natural born citizen to be president, irrespective of Electoral College votes, certification or swearing in ceremonies. It is sad that so many in Congress have these deficiencies.

Many of the states have statutes layered beneath the US Constitution clarifying duties and eligibility to run for office.

It is clear that NC and KY require that a presidential candidate be a natural born citizen in compliance with the US Constitution. Congratulations to Kentucky for their explicit language.
