What if "Birthers" were "Age-ers"?
The Post & Email ^ | February 19, 2010 | Sally Vendée

Everyone knows, or should by now with all of the “birther” hullabaloo, Article II of the Constitution and its three requirements for the Commander-in-Chief: He must be a “natural born Citizen,” at least thirty-five years old, and have resided for at least fourteen years within the United States.

Most Americans, according to the media, accept Obama’s alleged place of birth as Hawaii and his US citizenship. Many, though, especially in “tea party” circles, express frustration with his seeming lack of “transparency,” want to see more than the short-form birth certificate posted on the internet, and ask questions like: “Where do we put the plaque?” Everyday Americans must show a birth certificate and other credentials to get jobs, drivers’ licenses, loans, passports, play on sports teams, etc., and they wish that Obama would just present his so we can get on with it. These viewpoints earn them the dreaded label of “birther.”

The majority of “birthers” consider themselves “Constitutionalists,” and whether or not they have questions about Obama’s Hawaiian birth, they do have reservations about the “natural born” part— because of his Kenyan father, who was not an immigrant and never a US citizen, resulting in Obama Jr. admittedly being a dual citizen at birth. Scholars and attorneys could debate the definition of “natural born” for hours. Combine that question with the current political correctness of birthright citizenship, dual citizenship/allegiance and immigration, and the arguments become even more heated.

But what if the eligibility issue was much simpler to grasp: What if it had to do with the simplest of the three Presidential criteria—Age?

Imagine this:...

You don't have a clue where the word "non-binding" is in that SR511, do you???

Maybe you could find it in a dictionary -- under the definition of the word: "resolved".

It doesn't need to be there. That's not what makes it a non-binding resolution. You would know that if you had clue about what you were talking about.

Let’s count the posts. That should be fun. You count my posts on the BC issue and I’ll count yours doing your Obot damage control. Seems to me you fight with 90% of FR members on a daily basis, so why are you here? You say the same ole sh*t here that you do on DU.

It's always fun watching you run around babbling about this and that. Here it's Birthers. There it's the Lost Cause. Free Republic would be a much duller place without the entertainment you provide me.

“A Birther by any other name is still a Birther.”


Your intelligent post is a two edge sword, because then you as an “AFTER-BIRTHER” is still a dead “AFTER-BIRTHER” like you see when you scroll down to the two blue pans!!!

However, I have difficulty to see which of the two is YOU, because mostly you paid “Obama 2.0” all look the same, meaning dead organs???

No. By the fact that it was never sent to the House for a vote and never sent to the President for his signature. There is another term for binding resolutions. Laws.

Here's something that might help you out in the future. Hope it doesn't go over your head.

Because some nut had filed a suit against McCain challenging his qualifications. So I'll ask you the same question I ask Unc Chip - if the Senate passed another one saying ""Resolved it is the sense of the Senate that Barack Hussein Obama being born in Hololulu, Hawaii in August 1961 is a natural born citizen and eligible to be president" then would that end the matter for you?

Will you ? or do you confess that Jesus Christ came in the flesh 2000 years ago ?
And confess that Jesus Christ was and is GOD in the flesh ?
That Jesus Christ is Lord of All.
That Jesus Christ was born of a virgin birth ?
Will you confess that Jesus Christ was crucified on the cross, died for our sins, was put in a tomb, and rose on the 3rd day ? and that he went into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the throne of GOD as of now ?

You could clearly say that for McPain, but NO way you can say the same for your pal the usurper and that’s the reason the Senate will NOT touch it with a ten foot pole, because they all know he is NOT a NBC. So such resolution will never see the light of day!!!

But if it did would that make a difference to you?

We know more about every relative and association of Sarah Palin, going out 6 degrees, than we really know about the man sitting in the Whitehouse and in control of our powerful military.

Insanity. Complete, total insanity.
