And even it if wasn't, then the issue would be appealed up to the SCOTUS. And even the conservative SCOTUS we have today would acknowledge that the law backs the idea that they are two separate people. Because if they decided otherwise, they'd open the door for the argument that husbands and wives cannot both vote, because it would be the same as one person voting twice. >> Even if one was to acknowledge your point that *effectively* if >> we elect one, we elect both, the fact -- and this is fact, not >> opinion -- is that *legally* they are two different people, > > See above Doesn't change the fact that legally, they are not the same person. And it would take a Constitutional Amendment to change the rules of eligibility.
