Well, I’ve already said what my position was on the whole thing (just above) in my three-part breakdown — and on this one, it was to accept the Supreme Court decision, whatever that happens to be...

Well so there is prescedent ruling on natural born citizens. But as we’ve seen over and over, for the rats laws are made to be broken.

Bill Clinton perjuring himself under oath didn’t matter to them. Remember the cacophony when BJ was in trouble, the woman soldier who had gone to jail for an affair with an officer, the people who were trashed, the republican congressmen who were outed, Larry Flynt, the “living breathing constitution” and on and on. And the MSM are even worse now.

The rats almost have what they want...the takeover of a huge portion of our economy...they will stop at nothing....especially a little rule that you have to have 2 parents who are US citizens to be POTUS.

It's good to see some precision. I couldn't tell if Star_Traveler was suggesting that the foreign-born parents of presidents were not citizens. The citizen parents of a natural born citizen could have been anchor babies, but they have to be citizens. (I hope, if our republic survives this, that an amendment, or a ruling addresses the anchor baby interpretation.)
