Yeah... no.
What we really need to do, is revoke the public vote, and go back to being a republic.
This is a democracy. Democracy means, the law doesn't matter. If 51% of voters want something, that's what they get. So if they want a guy that doesn't meet any of your criteria, then that's what they get.
As long as we are democracy, law doesn't matter. You can drown a girl in your car, and be elected Senator. You can sell missile tech to china, and lie under oath, and buy off witnesses, and still remain president, because "the people want it".
Welcome to Democracy dude. Sucks doesn't it?
And that is exactly what the USA isn't.
We don't live in a Democracy.

Oh yes we do. Here's how you can tell if you live in a Republic, or a Democracy. A Republic, is a representative rule, under the law.
A Democracy is a rule of the people... regardless of law.
Ted Kennedy killed a girl, and it didn't matter. Al Gore was caught using the office of VP, to campaign for funds, and it didn't matter. Clinton was caught multiple times breaking Federal law, and committing felonies, and it didn't matter.
The rule of the people... We want Kennedy, Clinton, and Gore... was above the law. Democracy reigned supreme.
We are most certainly a Democracy. That is exactly what we have become.
And we are a Representative Republic under the rule of law, retard.
And you didn't get Gore, because the Court, of the Republic said so.

Yeah.... ok. I'll grant you that. One point for you.
But in a Republic, we are not supposed to be even having a public vote on the president to begin with. Or senators.
See? That's the problem. We're not supposed to voting on these people to start with.
In fact, if you read the reasoning given for not having a vote on the president, by the founding fathers who wrote the constitution........ all of the things... ALL of the things they were worried about, for not having a public vote.... is all happening. Because we do.
yeah, uh, no. In a Republic you do vote for your representatives and then they vote on bills for you. If we didn't have elected officials we would be something else entirely.
And that is exactly what they do.
