She should tell Trump to drop out since he’s a NBI (Natural Born Idiot).

We decided we didn’t want to be subjects anymore about 1776.
One is NATURALLY a US citizen when one can be no other.
Born here of citizen parents

That’s your own definition you made up. It’s not in the Constitution. If the framers didn’t want natural-born to mean what it did in Britain, they would’ve used different words.

To: JediJones
It was commonly understood until recently.
It has been purposely obfuscated to undermine the Constitution and the protection that requirement renders.
Isn’t Barack Hussein Obama proof enough of the wisdom?

Official Trump/Chump-Sucker Thread
If you believe that opposition to a flip flopping Manhattenite pretend-Conservative, makes you a
- Neocon
- # insert here # - bot
- Hitler
- ...any Trump inspired slur
Then this thread is for you
- In 1999, Trump said he had joined the Reform Party because Republicans are âjust too crazyâ right.
- In 2000, he said: âI hate the concept of guns.â
- In 2004: âI identify more as a Democrat.â
- In 2007: Told Wolf Blitzer on CNNâs âThe Situation Roomâ that Hillary Clinton was the most qualified to make a nuclear deal with Iran.
- In 2008: Said he was âimpressedâ with Rep. Nancy Pelosi, and supported the idea of impeaching then President George W. Bush.
- âIâm going to take care of everybody,â Trump said in September 2015 on CBSâ 60 minutes. When asked how he would pay for it, he lresponded that âthe governmentâs going to take care of it.â
- He thinks affirmative action is okay
- He would fund Planned Parenthood except for abortion. (This is current federal policy, though Trump doesn't seem to know it.)
- He supports a progressive income tax. He does not favor a flat tax.
- He doesn't want to cut Social Security or Medicare.
- He's in favor of a ban on assault weapons.
- He invited Bill and Hillary Clinton to his wedding.
- He doesn't "fully" believe in supply-side economics.
- He hates the Iran deal, but he wouldn't abrogate it after taking office.
Abortion
Then: On "Meet The Press" in 1999, Trump said he was "very pro-choice." "I hate the concept of abortion," he said. "I hate it. I hate everything it stands for. ... but I just believe in choice."Now: In an interview with Bloomberg Politics in January, Trump said, "I'm pro-life and I have been pro-life." He said he believed there should be exceptions in cases of rape, incest or the life of the mother.
Guns
Then: In Trump's 200 book "The America We Deserve," he wrote that he "generally" opposed gun control but supported an assault weapons ban and a longer waiting period to purchase a firearm.Now: At the 2015 NRA-ILA Leadership Forum, Trump said if he became president, "the 2nd Amendment will be totally protected." He told the Web site Ammoland he does "not support expanding background checks" and said current background checks "don't work."
Healthcare
Then:Â In an interview with Larry King in 1999, Trump said he was "very liberal when it comes to health care" and that he believes in "universal healthcare." Now:Â During his announcement, he called Obamacare "a disaster called the big lie" and said the deductibles were so high they were "virtually useless."
Hillary Clinton
Then: Either Trump or his son donated to Clinton in 2002, 2005, 2006 and 2007, he invited her to his 2005 wedding in Florida, where she sat front row, and he's donated at least $100,000 to the Clinton Foundation. He also said in an appearance on the Howard Stern show in the mid-2000s that she was a fantastic senator.Now: On NBC on Wednesday, he called Clinton "the worst secretary of state in the history of our nation" and said she would be "a terrible president."
Party affiliation
Then: Trump changed his party from Republican to Independent Party in 1999, and switched again to Democrat in 2001.Now: Has been a registered Republican since 2009.
There are also some flips which haven't necessarily been from left to right.
Jeb Bush
Then:Â In Trump's 2000 book "The America We Deserve," he called Bush "a good man," "bright, tough and principled," and "exactly the kind of political leader this country needs now and will very much need in the future."Now:Â On Fox News's "On The Record" this week, he called Bush "pathetic" for his support of Common Core, said his immigration views were "baby stuff."

She’s a Trump supporter and she’s running for assemblywoman in the 9th district.
“The Nevada GOP action to remove marriage and life from their platform is a disgrace,” wrote McLarty. “The move does nothing to unify the Republican Party. Republicans will continue to lose elections if we canât even stand for protecting the most vulnerable lives among us; or for keeping sacred five thousand plus years of natural human sexuality. Both are direct attacks on God and the family.”
Orrock responds that the inclusion of divisive social issues has no place in the GOP platform.

IRREFUTABLE AUTHORITY HAS SPOKEN
(Oct. 18, 2009) The Post & Email has in several articles mentioned that the Supreme Court of the United States has given the definition of what a ‘natural born citizen’ is. Since being a natural born citizen is an objective qualification and requirement of office for the U.S. President (and VP), it is important for all U.S. Citizens to understand what this term means.

Sounds like a Trump parrot. Does she use “great” and “win” in her stump speeches?
To: Reagan Disciple
It’s odd that she would get her information from Devvy Kidd, a columnist. You would think she could find a credible source before she starting running her mouth.

Wrong. In Britain before the Constitution was written, a natural-born subject included a child born to British parents outside of the countryâs territory.
