Anyone read the constitution lately?
Here's Section 3 of the 14th amendment:
No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any state, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any state legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any state, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.
As an officer in the United States Navy, Kerry took such an oath as described above. As a member of the Veterans against the Vietnam War, he engaged in rebellion against the United States and its Constitution.
Some of you legal eagles tell me if this guy is qualified to be President (or even a senator) without a 2/3 majority vote of Congress. |
