Former Governor Jennifer Granholm of Michigan stated a few years back she was eligible for the presidency because she was born in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada and had dual Citizenship.

Canadian Granholm implies she can run for President: “I’ve got dual citizenship.”

Michigan Democrat Governor Jennifer Granholm on Fox News Sunday responded to host Chris Wallace’s clarification that as a Canadian, she is ineligible to run for president of the United States. Granholm came to the United States as a child of 4 years old.

Granholm’s response is indicative of the mistaken belief that because one of her parents is/was a US Citizen, she’s eligible.

GRANHOLM: No, I’m totally focused this year on creating every single job I can until the last moment. December 31st at midnight is when I’ll stop. So I have no idea what I’m going to do next, but I’m not going to run for president. I can tell you that.

WALLACE: Yes, that’s true. We should point out Governor Granholm is a Canadian and cannot run for president.

GRANHOLM: I’m American. I’ve got dual citizenship.”

I don't think she's implying anything. Wallace said she was a Canadian and she corrected him. Which was a dumb mistake on Wallace's part to begin with since she couldn't run for governor had she not been a citizen. Nowhere in those comments did she say or hint she thought she was qualified to run for president or had any intention of doing so.
