Another new fact has appeared. When the issue came up about McCain, a bill was drafted. It was intended to pass as an amendment to USCA Sec. 1401 and it provided among other things that a person born outside the US was automatically a citizen and also provided that such a person was eligible to act as President under Article II.

Clare McCaskil of Missouri introduced the bill however it has now become known that she did so as a favor to her friend, Barack Obama who wrote the bill.

Why would Barack put a single parent savings clause in a bill designed to benefit his colleague John McCain who was born to two U S citizen parents? He knew; he has always known he is not a citizen nor eligible to be elected President.

Wow, this could be a genuine "Buckhead moment" -- but how do we know for sure that Obama wrote that bill for McCaskill? Any link(s) to what that bill is and how it came about? Thx......

That’s absolutely scandalous and should be criminal.

Bingo. That has been my suspicion for a couple weeks. But I wanted to focus on proving the forgery first and foremost. Now we can think about motives.

The resolution deals only with US citizens born on military bases, though someone (David?) said that McCain was born in the Canal Zone but not "on base". Anyway I found the resolution and here it is. Senator Obama is a cosponsor as is Senator Clinton, and a few others.

GPO Text of Resolution

III

110TH CONGRESS

2D SESSION S. RES. 511

Recognizing that John Sidney McCain, III, is a natural born citizen.

IN THE SENATE OF THE UNITED STATES

APRIL 10, 2008

Mrs. MCCASKILL (for herself, Mr. LEAHY, Mr. OBAMA, Mr. COBURN, Mrs. CLINTON, and Mr. WEBB) submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the Committee on the Judiciary

RESOLUTION

Recognizing that John Sidney McCain, III, is a natural born citizen.

Whereas the Constitution of the United States requires that, to be eligible for the Office of the President, a person must be a ‘‘natural born Citizen’’ of the United States;

Whereas the term ‘‘natural born Citizen’’, as that term appears in Article II, Section 1, is not defined in the Constitution of the United States;

Whereas there is no evidence of the intention of the Framers or any Congress to limit the constitutional rights of children born to Americans serving in the military nor to prevent those children from serving as their country’s President;

Whereas such limitations would be inconsistent with the purpose and intent of the ‘‘natural born Citizen’’ clause of the Constitution of the United States, as evidenced by the First Congress’s own statute defining the term ‘‘natural born Citizen’’;

Whereas the well-being of all citizens of the United States is preserved and enhanced by the men and women who are assigned to serve our country outside of our national borders;

Whereas previous presidential candidates were born outside of the United States of America and were understood to be eligible to be President; and Whereas John Sidney McCain, III, was born to American citizens on an American military base in the Panama Canal Zone in 1936:

Now, therefore, be it Resolved, That John Sidney McCain, III, is a ‘‘natural born Citizen’’ under Article II, Section 1, of the Con stitution of the United States.
