Gorsuch opinion when Colorado said a naturalized citizen (first name Abdul) could not be on the ballot, upholding the state's power to impose constitutional requirements on candidates. [/quote]

That would be true in ANY state.  
It is a specific requirement in the Constitution:

Article II, Section 1, Clause 5:

No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.

What Colorado has decided isn't.  Especially since it is clear that "insurrection" has not been defined WRT Jan. 6. No court has heard evidence nor found anyone guilty of such.  A single state (or even a few states) making that declaration doesn't make it so.  [/quote]

The significance is that a [b]state[/b] determined someone's Constitutional eligiblity to be on the ballot.  Gorsuch's opinion on it when it came before the appeals court he was on upheld that.  Will he change his mind now that he's on the Supreme Court?[/quote]
You bet he’ll change his mind! Nothing means anything to these extremist judges, not even their own prior opinions. There’s always a loophole and nothing means anything.

Never vote for a Republican again. [/quote]
