[Washington Examiner] With President Joe Biden today dismissing critics of his poor debate performance with former President Donald Trump, a "Plan C" is being urged to help his wounded reelection effort across the finish line first on Election Day.

Advocates of "Plan C" said the solution to Trump’s surging campaign and Electoral College advantage is a simple one: replace Vice President Kamala Harris with former President Barack Obama.

"A Biden-Obama ticket would have a much better chance of beating Trump," said legal scholar John Banzhaf, a professor at George Washington University Law School.

He is more completely described by Wikipedia as a legal activist, a perfect example of the dangers of letting engineers (BSEE from MIT) apply their skills to law. His causes have been many and varied, over the years, including objections to President Trump that informed the 2021 prosecution in Fulton County, Georgia.

"Barack Obama is probably one of the few persons whom a majority of Americans would want and trust as president, so Plan C might be the least objectionable of a number of very unpopular and dubious options now open to Biden and the Democratic Party," he said on Thursday.

#2 ...I'm gonna say no on this one. I still say that any attempt to remove Harris as a candidate will result in a civil war within the Democratic Party that will end any chance of a victory this year.

And consider this - even if Obama was to go along with something like this, he's no idiot: right now , there's a damned good chance that no matter what he does, Donald Trump will beat him. He's not going to take that chance.

#4 Your legal scholar needs summer school. Obama is ineligible for the office in the same fashion Clinton and Bush are.

#11 There are separate issues with Obama replacing Harris in office or in the ticket.

Barack would be ineligible for the ticket in either slot based on the plain text of the Amendment. The VP always has to be eligible for the presidency. You can’t put Schwarzenegger in the VP slot in hopes of upgrading him later - not that that would be a good idea to begin with.

To install Obama in as VP, he would have to face hearings and get approval in the House and Senate. The American people aren’t going to accept giving the shadow operation legitimacy. Obama has done a lousy job as shadow president. They will oust any RINOs who went along with this fantasy. It’s fantasy, because Barak isn’t going to sit for hearings.

"Legitimacy" hasn't been much of a challenge for decades.
