The Vote Smart Project shows that the
NATURAL BORN CITIZEN question has been reviewed by
five lawyers acting as United
States Senators
in April of 2008. Six
Senators sponsored the NATURAL BORN
CITIZENSHIP of John McCain in
the Senate Resolution (SRES 511), but only 5
Senators were of the legal profession.
This Senate Resolution (SRES 511) defined
that a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN required the child to
be born of two American citizens within the
United
States or
territories thereof. These are the six sponsors of
this Senate Resolution and here is their legal

Then the "entire Senate" passed the Senate
Resolution…I wonder how many gagged as they
voted?
On the other hand, on July 27, 2009
(exactly one year later), the U.S. House of
Representatives passed H.R. 593 and tried to
get passage of a resolution in both the house and
the U.S. Senate to magically make Barry Soetoro a
similar Natural Born Citizen. But they couldn't
make it happen.
The Senate version, Senate Resolution 225
(See: http://www.opencongress.org/bill/111-sr225/text ) was a
near mirror image of HR
593.
There must have been too much
resistance. Soetoro only got a one-liner of "Whereas the
44th President of the United States,
Barack Obama, was born in Hawaii on August
4, 1961..." This sentence was hidden in a
434-worded travelogue about the wonders of
Hawaii. There is
no mention of Soetoro (a.k.a. Obama) being
conferred Natural Born
Citizenship!
It was amusing to see that Senator
Daniel Inouye (D-HI) had no sponsors with him on
this Resolution. Inouye is also an
Attorney/Senator. This is Inouye's votesmart.com
bio and legal

Again, on the House version, HR593
had only one lonely sponsor which was noted. It
was Neil Abercrombie (D-HI). Abercrombie doesn't
seem to have any legal experience but he has been
in politics long enough to know that his buddy,
Soetoro, had questions about his qualifications
for the presidency. Especially after Phil Berg
started suing the socks off Soetoro in about every
court in the land. Abercrombie is as much a crook
as the rest of the shyster lawyers in
Congress!

SUMMARY: It seems that by 2009, one year
after the passage of the McCain falsehood, none of
the attorney Senators or attorney House of
Representatives cared to pass a similar Resolution
anointing Soetoro into Natural Born Citizen
status. Both resolutions passed...without debate
and without major comment from the media...but
still, Obama is hiding from the fact he is not a
Natural Born Citizen. And this proves there is
corruption in the Senate and the PEOPLE'S HOUSE,
the House of Representatives.
