Amendment XIV, Section 3

US Constitution
Amendment XIV.
Section. 3.

No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice President, or
hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State,
who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State,
to support the Constitution of the United States,
shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof.

But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.

If that is the case, sir.....why is Obama still being allowed to run for Prez?? Because some judge said that burning the flag is protected under free speech?

Obama has admitted, as has his wife that they have burned flags and of committing rebellion against the U.S.

People in this country have learned that they can violate rules, statutes and laws and get away with it because the majority of people are SHEEP and they are SCARED that if a person that is of ethnic origin commits a violation, they will pull the race card.

Gee, maybe we need to stop letting race get the best of AMERICA.

Obama has no right to call himself Afican-American. He has no American in him.

I've said it in here before, we need an ammendment to the Constitution that disallows the protection, of the Constitution, to anyone that does not ACCEPT and acknowledge belief, in all of it's tenet's!!!

This would totally kill the Gitmo folks, or any others, from being protected by OUR CONSTITUTION, after all it's not THEIRS!!!

I would encourage anyone who is not familiar with this story, particularly if you are a history afficionado, to please take a little time to read it.

An excellent read! A quote from the story:

Quote:
I know but one fate more dreadful; it is the fate reserved for those men who shall have one day to exile themselves from their country because they have attempted her ruin, and shall have at the same time to see the prosperity and honor to which she rises when she has rid herself of them and their iniquities.
For all too many, citizenship in The United States of America is a 'right', not a privilege. If only we had the political will to strip citizenship from those that seek to destroy what our Founding Fathers created. Instead, we tolerate their actions and allow them the protections codified in the very document they so disdain and hide behind.

I have never really seen or read anything other than chatter that supports such a claim. I know he supports the legal right to burn old glory but have never heard of him actually setting the spark.

I spoke with one of my district representative's aides today and expressed my support for the bill. He did not know the congressman's position on the bill, but stated he would pose the question and e-mail me his response.

If you don't have your district rep's contact information, a good place to start is here:

http://www.house.gov/

On the homepage, there are multiple links to various search functions, including one for bills, amendments and debates.

Guys,

I'm not sure this "Bill" is necessary as we already have laws covering the jist of this piece of legislation--laws predicated on the US Constitution and US Code, the basis for our system of 'due process.' This seems to me like another piece of Congressional 'time-wasting fluff' to garner votes when we have issues that need our representative's attention now.

Ich schwöre bei Gott diesen heiligen Eid, daß ich dem Führer des Deutschen Reiches und Volkes Adolf Hitler, dem Oberbefehlshaber der Wehrmacht, unbedingten Gehorsam leisten und als tapferer Soldat bereit sein will, jederzeit für diesen Eid mein Leben einzusetzen.

Fire away.

I agree, for what my devalued two cents are worth.

I would add that any effort to get any such legislation passed would further inflame the radical anti-American rhetoric at home and abroad. I think that existing measures and their underlying logic need to be improved both in terms of execution and elaboration before additional options are explored.

If such legislation were passed, would it not serve to drive the radical Muslims in this country even deeper underground than they may already be? Would it not be easier to keep tabs on advocates of Islamic law if we knew where they were and what they were saying?

Perhaps. Apparently, they aren't effective or they aren't being used.

For some examples, see:

http://www.islamicthinkers.com/index/index.php (An organization in NYC agitating for Sharia Law)

http://atlasshrugs2000.typepad.com/a...sts-day-p.html

There is a video of the Muslim Day Parade 2008, embedded in the article on the atlasshrugs website.

Government governs best that governs least". i agree with Richard, this looks redundant. And it looks a little bit to much like the Patriot Act too me!
