Get under that bus Hillary!

If the level of traction in the media that a candidate has !0 months prior to the Iowa Caucus were the only prerequisite, the Republican field would already been narrowed down to a select few. But it hasn't and we still have the Dirty Dozen (or so) shooting their mouths off.

There is plenty of time for traction but you first have to rev up the engines.

Unless of course, you've hitched your wagon behind one of the One-Trick Pony's in the Republican field.

Which Pony are you riding, JDIdiot? The Canadian Defector? Originally Posted by bigtex

If that logic is what we're using then Obama could have been born in Kenya and still be eligible to be president, since his mother was an american citizen.

If we're going to have to revisit this; Cruz's mother was an American citizen married to a Cuban born husband. She had reached the age of majority, meaning that she could pass along her citizenship to her child.

Barack Obama's mother was only 19 when he was born and she was not legally married to her Kenyan husband. He was already married so any marriage between him and Ann Dunham was invalid. If you assume that Obama was born in Kenya. Obama was born in 1961, under 1961 citizenship laws. There was a major change in citizenship laws in 1968. Cruz was born in 1970.

And it was more than the dust jacket of a book. It was on his entrance forms for Occidental college. He listed himself as a foreign exchange student from Kenya. Maybe that is why he has hidden his other records.
Perhaps Obama was actually born on a hijacked airliner that had been parked on a remote island, camouflaged by thousands of shrubs.

Here's a little something for you, from the citizenship laws

"A child who is born to U.S. citizen parents (or in some cases, to only one U.S. citizen parent) outside the U.S. may automatically become a U.S. citizen. This is called "acquisition" of U.S. citizenship.

When this child marries and has children, those children may also acquire U.S. citizenship at birth, regardless of where they are born. This means that you can, in effect, get U.S. citizenship through a grandparent, even if your parent never realized that he or she was a U.S. citizen."


And this:

"Child Born Between December 24, 1952, and November 13, 1986

If at the time of your birth, both your parents were U.S. citizens and at least one had a prior residence in the U.S., you automatically acquired U.S. citizenship, with no other conditions for keeping it. If only one parent was a U.S. citizen at the time of your birth, that parent must have resided in the U.S. for at least ten years, and at least five of those years must have been after your parent reached the age of 14.

If your one U.S. citizen parent is your father and your birth was illegitimate (took place while your parents weren’t married), the same rules apply, provided you were legally legitimated (your father acknowledged paternal responsibility) prior to your 21st birthday and you were unmarried at the time of legitimation.

Obama is:

The first half black president
The first biracial president
The first proven bastard
The first son of a stripper
The first president to grow up outside the US
The first president to bow to foreign potentates
The first president to celebrate Ramadan
The first president to lose not one but two wars
The first president to live with a tranny

The story is that she was posing for Frank Marshall Davis, the communist from Chicago. No wonder Barack feels so much at home.

and your point would be? I thought this was about Hillary? Now, if you got nude pics of HER and you're holding out, bring it on.

FYI, he probably took away a slot from some other had working student who couldn't (or wouldn't) claim he was a foreign exchange student. Find that student and put him (or her) into the Oval Office. Kind of like making up for past wrongs committed by Obama.
