It could not be more simple to write a piece of legislation that would set the fiction of "corporate personhood" out in the trashpile of crazy ideas, where it belongs.

Thank God, I'm not a lawyer, but it might go something like this:

***** "Only upon the submission of a birth certificate that is recognized by an issuing State within the United States of America, shall any person, body, entity, or thing, be recognized as the equivalent of an "individual" or a "human being" with any rights whatsoever under the Constitution of the United States of America."

The people who write bills can submit this concept in impenetrable legalize, as seems to be required by the current madness that passes for government.

The teabagging element of the loony right has finally given us a germ of an idea, the slightest feint toward a legal concept, that the center and the left can rally around.

1. That sounds like a law
stating that anyone born outside the U.S., who is not a citizen with a birth certificate, is not a human being with human rights.

2. How does one provide a photo id with an expiration date for a corporation?

3. How does one prove citizenship for a corporation?
Personally I haven't seen anything like behavior becoming of a citizen from a corporation for years.
Its seems their only allegiance is to money, not honor, not country.

But if corporations are gonna be persons, when they work for the armed services, they too should be paid below market rates. Our soldiers don't earn as much in the military as they would in the private sector, why should corporations PROFIT from their efforts?
