It says ALL ARTICLES, Dumbass.

And yes, when only one entity is listed it IS exclusive.

We get it. You want the orange MAL ape's ass munchers in the Congress & Senate to decide whether or not he's allowed on the ballot after his insurrection plot.

Keep those tears flowing.
 
Insurrection like many things is defined in absolute terms. A small insurrection is still an insurrection.

Like being pregnant for a day or 9 months is still pregnant.
And rape is defined as any penetration no matter how slight or how brief.
As I said, I understand why you are misinterpreting the Amendment to try to make it fit Trump so he can’t run for President. It’s laughable to compare the Civil War which was a real insurrection, to the Jan 6th riot. In fact the riots in the cities over the George Floyd incident were FAR more serious.

This situation will likely work its way up to the Supreme Court who will define what an insurrection is and if the Amendment applies to Trump.

I personally want DeSantis to become the Republican candidate as while he may not be the world’s greatest speaker, he is instead a doer who can get things done.. He just doesn’t seem to be able to overcome Trump as he comes across as your typical everyday politician. However, he lacks the obnoxiousness that makes Trump so polarizing. Trump is definitely your typical New Yorker. Every New Yorker I have ever met was an obnoxious ass.

I haven’t really paid much attention to Nikki Haley but watching her recently she seems like she might make a good candidate. I just don’t know enough about her positions at this time.

I was a registered Democrat for almost half a century but then the Democratic Party changed from the party of the working man in to the party of greedy, power hungry politicians who hopes to change our functional constitutional republic into a Marxist socialist workers’ paradise. I now doubt if I will vote for a democrat at the state or national level ever again.
 
Sure they can. If they need to in order to obey Article 6 of the US Constitution.

Remember: the Judges in every State shall be bound thereby,

And states give enforcement of election laws to their secretary of state, or local election boards. And like in Bush V Gore the Sec of State determined election law, and was the decider of what were the legal vote counts. And that was upheld by the USSC.


Poor little child, election laws are a totally different animal from federal criminal law.

Keep in mind if you want to play that game some Red states will remove Joe Biden from their ballots as he has refused to enforce our border laws.

After all, What is good for the goose is good for the gander.

The 14th wasn't narrowly tailored. It used insurrection and not civil war as the standard. And was aimed to make sure those that commit or assist insurrection can't get their hands on any government office, federal or state. With no limits on its application.
Historians disagree with you.

 
Rape is rape. And as I showed like insurrection, it's all or nothing. That no matter how slight or how brief. In for a penny, in for a pound.

A little insurrection is still an insurrection.


Yeah, and States have no more authority to enforce laws under title 10 than they have under title 18, regardless of your fantasies. If SCOTUS upholds the States they will be opening a Pandora's box where States can disqualify any candidate at will.

Congress under the 12th

and if no person have such majority, then from the persons having the highest numbers not exceeding three on the list of those voted for as President, the House of Representatives shall choose immediately, by ballot, the President.

Here congress can clearly override the will of the people, or the will of the EC.
The House can only do so if nobody reaches the threshold. That's the whole point.

SCOTUS, moron. The congress has obviously not taken the stance you are having a hissy fit over.

That's the scare tactic, but in actuality there are only 6 conditions under which a State can disqualify someone from being on the ballot for the Office of the President.

Eat shit. Im not the poster asking the question, window licker.
After the "Access Hollywood" tape do you really and truly need a link to believe such cheating occurred?

You do not strike me as that "dense" but perhaps my radar needs tuning.
 


1. Age 35+
2. 14 Years a Resident
3. Natural Born Citizen
4. Not engaged in insurrection
5. Not have been elected to the office twice
6. Not been barred from holding office as a condition of being convicted by the Senate from an impeachment

The riots in the summer of 2020 didn't attack the seat of the federal government. They didn't shut down an official act of congress. They didn't try to influence the transfer of power subsequent to an election.

Remember, Trump had illegal border crossings also. Neither of them secured the border.
If not deporting the people who snuck in is a crime. then Trump is also guilty, and should be removed from the ballot.
 
Historians disagree with you.

I read the article. They don't say anything about limits to any of the amendments.
They took 5 years to enact.

So what do they disagree with vs what I said?

You forgot about article 6 of the US constitution,that binds the judges of every state to follow federal law.
And the 10th amendment makes the states in charge of elections. And most state election laws / state constitutions, give their state judiciary the power to judge election controversies.
 
The House can only do so if nobody reaches the threshold. That's the whole point.
And congress if both houses agree, can throw out the votes from any states.
If they do that to enough EC votes, and nobody reaches 277, which then would give the house the sole power to pick the president. Independent of who the people wanted by popular or EC vote.
 
That's the scare tactic, but in actuality there are only 6 conditions under which a State can disqualify someone from being on the ballot for the Office of the President.

And none of those disqualifications require congress to act.
[edit] except #6
