Hey there, OP! You still haven’t addressed this from our last interaction, about the Presidency being covered by Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment of the US Constitution:

Specifically:
One scholar notes that the drafting history of Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment suggests that the office of the President is covered:
During the debate on Section Three, one Senator asked why ex-Confederates “may be elected President or Vice President of the United States, and why did you all omit to exclude them? I do not understand them to be excluded from the privilege of holding the two highest offices in the gift of the nation.” Another Senator replied that the lack of specific language on the Presidency and Vice- Presidency was irrelevant: “Let me call the Senator’s attention to the words ‘or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States.’”
I’ll highlight that last bit again:
Another Senator replied that the lack of specific language on the Presidency and Vice- Presidency was irrelevant: “Let me call the Senator’s attention to the words ‘or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States.’”
That is from this paper: https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=3748639
So does that satisfy your curiosity, or are you still going to run around asking why every government role wasn’t listed in this section? Because it’s kinda hard to believe you stand for any kind of law or order, when you dismiss the foundation of all law and order in this country that is the Constitution and oppose its application in our society.
Aw, what was uncivil about my post? All I did was point out that Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment expressly includes the office of the President!
