Any idea about what would happen if BHO aka BS is found not be fit to
POTUS because he is not a true "natural born citizen"?

This also let me point how the US electoral system is very strange.
In Italy you MUST show an ID document every time you vote. Legally you
must carry an ID document and show it to the police (or others) any time
they ask you. It appear that ID documents in the US are used only to buy
alcoholics.

If I remember correctly, McCain was questioned about he being born in
Panama by US citizens.
