RE: We’re not asking for birth certificates for Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson or Charlie Rangel, so it can’t be about race.
There is NO Constitutional requirement for Congressmen to be Natural Born citizens, so Rangel does not have to prove anything other than he is an American Citizen.
Now, if Al or Jesse were the official POTUS nominees, they have to prove that they’re natural born citizens ( that goes for everyone else, regardless of race or color ).
The point was meant to be, we’re not asking for a birth certificate based on RACE...sorry you missed it.
