Following is the original Thirteenth Amendment which was ratified in 1819 and never repealed. This means simply that Al Gore, Bill Clinton, and most likely every single Congressman are NO longer Citizens of the United States since all have taken payoffs in the form of campaign contributions from foreign governments. Seems to me deportation is in order.

I don't know about you, but I think it is time to take our country back. These 'goofballs' haven't bothered to go under the rule of law for 200 years. Why in the world should we be surprised that Bill Clinton has taken away the rest of our liberties? Or that Al Gore is right now flaunting the law of Florida and performing character assassination on anyone who gets in his way?
I say, it is simple: We begin right here with the Original 13th Amendment and deport these criminals. And I don't mean just some. Let's get rid of every one of them who has ever taken a campaign contribution from interests that are not our own. George Bush, that means you too, if you are one of them. And if you are not, we would like to know.

The fact is, this is NO joke. They have broken the law. I say we hold them to it!!!! (Durn! where's a lawyer when you need one?)

The Original Thirteenth Article of Amendment
To The Constitution For The United States

http://www.amendment13-org

"If any citizen of the United States shall accept, claim, receive, or retain any title of nobility or honour, or shall without the consent of Congress, accept and retain any present, pension, office, or emolument of any kind whatever, from any emperor, king, prince, or foreign power, such person shall cease to be a citizen of the United States, and shall be incapable of holding any office of trust or profit under them, or either of them." [Journal of the Senate]

=================================

On March 12, 1819 the State of Virginia, with the enactment and publication of the laws of Virginia, became the 13th and FINAL state required to ratify the above article of amendment to the Constitution For The United States, thus making it the Law Of The Land. With the enactment of Act No. 280, March 12, 1819, which was Voted, En Bloc, and publication of the Revised Code, the State of Virginia notified the Department of State, the Congress, the Library of Congress, and the President of their action by issuing to each a copy of the Laws of Virginia. [See VA 1819 Images]

This Article of Amendment added an enforceable strict penalty, i.e., inability to hold office and loss of citizenship, for violations of the already existing constitutional prohibition in Article 1, Section 9, Clause 8 on titles of nobility and other conflicts of citizenship interest, such as accepting emoluments of any kind for services or favors rendered or to be rendered, and is particularly applicable today in the 21st Century as government is increasingly FOR SALE to the highest bidder, as foreign and multinational corporations and individuals compete to line the pockets of politicians and political parties to accommodate and purchase protection or privilege, i.e. honors, for their special interests.

In terms familiar to the common man, this might quite properly be called the use of bribes and graft by individuals and powers foreign, i.e. external, to the Congress of the United States to subvert the constitutional process and suborn our political system and the interests of WE THE PEOPLE.

After appearing in numerous official publications until 1876, this Article "disappeared" from our Constitution, to be replaced by another made nearly 50 years later. You may well ask how such a thing could have happened. So did we.

The disappearance of the original 13th Amendment to the Constitution of the United States has been under investigation by independent modern researchers during the past seventeen years. We've learned a lot.

We now know that the original 13th Amendment was, and still is, the Law Of The Land.

The law is still there, waiting only to be publicly recognized and enforced once again to protect the Sovereignty and Interests of WE THE PEOPLE, and to force the elected representatives of the people to adhere strictly to their solemn and binding Oath of Office and the limitations of government imposed by the Constitution.
