Michelle Obama told supporters in Philadelphia on Wednesday that candidates don’t change once they become president and that America “needs an adult in the White House.” […]

“The presidency doesn’t change who you are; it reveals who you are,” she told the cheering crowd. […]

She said the country needs a leader who is steady and measured because when making war-or-peace decisions, “the president can’t just pop off or lash out irrationally. No, we need an adult in the White House, I guarantee you.” …

The phrase “natural born” has nothing to do with the place of birth. In the 17th century, “natural born” was a polite way of indicating who was the “biological father.” (The biological mother is apparent.)

The Founding Fathers had intense discussions about what degree a monarchy, aristocracy or other birth-determined status should have in the new country. As the Republic took shape, a consensus grew, more and more away from titles and inherited class. Hence, they wanted to distinguish that the president was elected on his own merits, not by a dynastic succession or entitlement.

“Natural born” means the presidency is “not inherited.” An illegitimate but “natural born” son of a citizen (his biological father, if not legal) therefore is qualified to run for president. This levels the playing field and removes privilege, wealth or inherited title as a factor in the democratic process.

(I anticipate everyone now claiming they never heard this before. Ask an historian. Google is not the font of all knowledge.)

Yes, and he's been revealed as an A-hole.

“She would know.... we’ve haven’t had one in 7 and half years!”

I was going to say we’ve needed one for the last 8 years. Well, I said it.

Yes, an adult on the Whitehouse would be a welcome change.

That kind of talk is so beneath a First Lady, it will not be lost on the voters. This will backfire.

"Did she mean an adulteress or adulterer?"

Yes she did. Moochelle has difficulty with words above two syllables.

After nearly eight years with a racist crybaby in charge, we certainly need an adult. That’s why I’m voting Trump.

No adults in the White Mosque for the past 7 plus years includes all of them, even their advisers.
