The rally is being assembled around the issues contained ina Declaration to Restore the Constitutional Republic,which sets out the goals of the organizing groups, which include theVeteran Defenders of Americaand its parent organization,The United States Patriots Union.
Theevents are scheduled to begin at the Washington Monument at 6 a.m.and continue at points around Washington, D.C., throughout the day. How many people are expected isn't being released, nor is the membership information for the "member-only" organizations.
But they know who will not be participating:
Jerome Corsi’s new book, "Where’s the Birth Certificate?", is now available for immediate shipping, autographed by the author, only from the WND Superstore
According to Col. James Harding of the veterans organization also served by retired Maj. Gen. Paul Vallely, "It is much easier to list who is not on board at this point – leftists who have a very anti-American vision for America, people who have not yet accepted that there is no political solution now and those who have a seat at the table of corruption are not on board."
The organizations have issued a code of conduct for the events, calling for peaceful protest and resistance. And while they acknowledge they are not likely to have the resignations in hand by the end of that day, they say there is a very important reason to rally.
"We have to start somewhere," said Timothy Harrington, cofounder of the Patriots Union. "We are hoping to show D.C. insiders that the people have had enough. That the time for talking has passed and the time for serious action to save this nation has arrived."
This job should already have been accomplished, the organizers point out.
"Every member of every branch of government has taken an oath to uphold and protect the Constitution and the people of the United States and it's high time we see which of them is ready to live up to that oath."
The crux of the issue is the still-unresolved dispute over whether Obama is eligible for the office of president, or whether he's been usurping the authority of an office for which he fails to qualify. Following closely are the actions he's taken while in office, from strong-arming private companies into doing what he wants to imposing amnesty by fiat on the American public.
There have been lawsuits over his eligibility, as the Constitution requires a president to be a "natural-born citizen." The Constitution does not define the term, but texts consulted by the Founders and U.S. Supreme Court decisions indicate it refers to the offspring of two citizen parents.
Obama's father never was a U.S. citizen, and critics argue that made him unqualified under the Constitution.
The event is calling upon all freedom-loving citizens "fed up with the corruption and tyranny in D.C. to take a stand."
