What I get out of it, is that a case cannot be brought before SCOTUS concerning the eligibility (specifically citizenship) of POTUS without having run it's course through the appellate court system. Then again, it's late, and I may just not be comprehending as well as I should be. Either way, seems to be good info, but would it be possible to post a bullet point summary? |

On the other hand, if a large number of military men refused to follow presidential orders..... |

"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..." This is the supreme law of the land, if Obama is not a natural born citizen, he is a lawbreaker. My bet is that the federal district courts, circuit courts of appeal and S Ct will use every twist and turn that they can to avoid hearing any case that is brought on the matter. |

They could hear and rule on a case started in federal district court that proceeds through the circuit court of appeals on to the S Ct. They all will do everything in their power to avoid it. |

Did you notice that opponents of Obama's eligibility have a perfect record of failure in any court of original jurisdiction? Every single case, without exception, failed. |

But it has nothing to do with his eligibility. Its unlikely that they will, though. As Obama is a lame duck for the next 2 years. His irrelevance serves them far more than his impeachment. The latter would almost certainly be a rallying cry for democrats to push voter participation even higher in 2016. And democrats do well when more people vote. Republicans, when less people vote. |
