The issue was raised in the campaign and rejected. We sure get the downside of being stuck with presidents for four year terms who lie us into wars and so forth. We can't enforce campaign promises like "warranties" -- only at the polls and via impeachment, there is no recall. We get our politicians "as is" after the campaign practices of "kicking the tires".

The real crime here is the crime against democracy. They want to weaponize the Constitution and use it against the sovereign We the People when no fundamental individual rights are implicated, nor are fundamental rights of public participation implicated.

Several people have served in the House and Senate who were "unqualified" under the Constitution's age requirements, -- another birth certificate issue. They served their full terms.
