Dr. Vieira is a consummate constitutional authority. He says that if just one member of the House and one member of the Senate were to challenge Hussein’s eligibility to serve as President in writing when the Electoral College’s votes arrive in the Senate, the Congress would have to conduct a full investigation, complete with witnesses, testimony and documents. Dr. Vieira urges you to get in touch with your Congressmen and Senators for the purpose.Remember, you are not asking them to deny the presidency to Hussein. You are merely asking them to require him to prove his eligibility.•••.
Unfortunately, Congress does not operate this way. He states that they would be compelled to investigate, and the result would be the truth being exposed and them having no choice but to disqualify.
ReplyDeleteBut you'll remember the impeachment of Bill Clinton. When he was impeached, the Senate was required to hold a trial, with evidence being presented and a judge presiding. We know that subsequently, Clinton was disbarred, due to the evidence against him. This meant nothing to the Senate, who blew through the procedure and did nothing.
The same thing would happen here.
