Congress has NOT openly, bindingly ‘determined’ on constitutional eligibility of a presidential candidate!

Congress has the authority to clarify what exactly natural born citizen is as intended by the founding fathers, but they have not done a thing about it!

Congress has tried many times to change the definition of nbc but failed every time!

A few senators, including obama and hillary, passed a non-binding resolution 511 in April 2007 to ‘resolve’ that McCain is a nbc elig to be president, because he was born overseas to 2 USA citizen parentS! But that does not overrule the original definition of nbc as intended by the founders.

Congress has NOT addressed the obama elig question at all, much less ‘determined’ that obama is elig!! Get the facts!

On the contrary, the Dems passed resolution 511 for McCain to compromise him and the Republicans so they are not at liberty to challenge obama’s elig!

The supreme court is taking a pass (Clarence Thomas hinted so) on this issue, not because they are not willing to overrule congress (there is nothing to overrule!) , but because they would rather not be responsible for ousting obama!

GET THE FACTS!

Clearly, you are WRONG!

Please name a Conservative legal foundation that agrees with you?

Please name an elected official who agrees with you?

Natural Born Citizen means CITIZEN AT BIRTH and NOTHING ELSE!

Congress does not have to define Natural Born Citizen, specifically, as there are only two forms of citizenship, in this country:

1. Natural Born Citizen
2. Naturalized Citizen

Congress has defined the rules for obtaining birthright citizenship.

Nothing else is required.
