In (this) my opening paper, I argue that the phrase "office under the United States" is a term of art referring to statutory or appointed officers, not to the President. In short, the Incompatibility Clause does not bar joint Senate-Presidential office-holding; it bars Senators from working for the President (or being appointed by the President), it does not bar a Senator from being President.Professor Steven G. Calabresi disagrees. In his response, he states that my position is "utterly implausible." I reply to his reponse, and he offers a rebuttal. The focus of our exchange relates to the Oaths and Affirmations Clause, the Impeachments Clause, and the Commissions Clause.
