Having failed for years to amend the Constitution by legal means, the Democrats and Republicans grabbed the opportunity in 2008 to amend it through a backroom political deal.

The uncertainty about Senator John McCain’s eligibility for the Presidency was resolved in April 2008 by the bogus, non-binding Senate Resolution 511, co-sponsored by Obama, which declared McCain a natural born citizen

Good find. The article could explain a lot things, including how McCain became the standard bearer, thus giving us the eminently qualified socialist reformer, Presdent obama.

And, it could explain the spirited defense of obama's eligibility by many here.

I had thought the only reason the ruling class repubs wouldn't address obama's citizenship is because obama appears to be black. Gutless in the face of peer pressure is one thing, but this is another level.

If true, it also means the Republican party, along with the demonrats, has lost its remaining claims to legitimacy and we need and are ready for a third party of those who can uphold their oaths of office.

If it was a non-binding resolution then how could it have resolved anything?
