But no person constitutionally ineligible to the office...
第 773 頁 - Rather, they must look to the "traditions and [collective] conscience of our people" to determine whether a principle is "so rooted [there] ... as to be ranked as fundamental." Snyder v.

That principle is now universally admitted.
第 190 頁 - SECTION 3 If, at the time fixed for the beginning of the term of the President, the President elect shall have died, the Vice President elect shall become President.
