replies: text: That's fine and all, but from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tax_protester_Sixteenth_Amendment_arguments#Ohio.27s_statehood there is reference to the section you removed.  Please fix?
See Bowman v. United States, 920 F. Supp. 623 n.1 (E.D. Pa. 1995) (discussing the 1953 joint Congressional resolution that confirmed Ohio’s status as a state retroactive to 1803) Geraldshields11 (talk) 21:27, 26 June 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Was Ohio not properly admitted as a state? 

message: Article 5.8 of the Ohio Constitution says:
"No person shall hold the office of United States Senator from Ohio for a period longer than two successive terms of six years. No person shall hold the office of United States Representative from Ohio for a period longer than four successive terms of two years. Terms shall be considered successive unless separated by a period of four or more years."
However nowhere in the Constitution of the United States does it say that a state has the power to decide the qualifications of a US representative or senator. The only criteria for a representative are:
"No person shall be a Representative who shall not have attained to the age of twenty five years, and been seven years a citizen of the United States, and who shall not, when elected, be an inhabitant of that state in which he shall be chosen."
And the only criteria for a senator are:
"No person shall be a Senator who shall not have attained to the age of thirty years, and been nine years a citizen of the United States and who shall not, when elected, be an inhabitant of that state for which he shall be chosen."
So has the Ohio Constitution gone further than the US Constitution allows? Richard75 15:59, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes. In U.S. Term Limits, Inc. v. Thornton 514 U.S. 779 (1995), the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that states could not add to the qualifications listed in the U.S. Constitution. (In that case, the court ruled the term limit provision of the Arkansas Constitution was unconstitutional.) Article 5.8 of the Ohio Constitution is unconstitutional and unenforceable. — Mateo SA (talk | contribs) 19:59, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Unconstitutional? 

message: I just heard in a presidential radio debate on npr from Dennis Kucinich, that the original Ohio constitution was in German. Is that true? I did not see it in the article at all...
