I really have to wonder though.... did the dems introduce the bill you mentioned to encourage McCain to run? or to clear the way for Obama? Hard call there, considering they turned right back around and ignored their own bill as they challenged his status.

I've read that following the Senate resolution declaring McCain natural born, bills for Senate review of Obama's NBC status were put on ice by the Democrat leadership. Does anyone have know of a citation for this?

I doubt it. The McCain resolution makes its point by noting the citizenship of the parents, and that they were out of the country on military orders. A resolution asserting Obama's NBC status would have to note the father was NOT a US citizen. This, without more, creates a legal issue that Congress emphatically desires to avoid seeing.

What we have is the dog that didn't bark, absence of a resolution tells the story.
