Well, I read the research threads, and I understood them all and the various competing arguments. Scotus did not rule on the definition of natural born citizen as it pertains to Article II, Section 1 requirement to be POTUS in Minor vs Happerstatt.
They were ruling on whether a citizen had an inherent right to vote. You are making a valid argument, but SCOTUS quite plainly was not addressing the issue of who could be president.
I happen to feel that only a person born to 2 citizen parents and born on American soil should be eligible. In addition, I think that their education and upbringing is important-they should not be raised in foreign countries in madrasas for example.
But what I think and feel is quite different from what exists. Even the State Department rules state that it is unclear. And the law that Congress passed a long time ago showed that there was disagreement even way back then. That law was rendered moot in short order.
SCOTUS could rule on a specific case or Congress could propose a constitutional amendment. Otherwise legitimate arguments can be made on differing definitions and arguments will continue ad nauseum forever apparently.

Didn’t get a chance to ask. Lucky to get what I did, given the social situation.

I wonder if things are leveling out to reflect the numbers being tested .... if we knew how many positives reflected actual symptoms etc we could better gauge what’s up.
I agree, the question is not settled. And no on wants to go there.
Thanks. That’s a nice concise statement of where we are.
It did make a bodacious Wilson cloud though.

North Carolina police have charged a neighbor with the murder of a five-year-old boy who was riding a bike in his own yard when he was shot at point blank range on Sunday evening.
Darius Sessoms, 25, was taken into custody by Wilson police around 24 hours after he allegedly approached Cannon Hinnant in front of the young boy’s father’s house at 5:30pm and shot him in the head.
Hinnant’s seven-year-old and eight-year-old sisters witnessed the killing, their mother told WRAL. ...snip...
But we also can be confident that if Sessoms were white and Hinnant had been black, this would have been front-page news, and on all the networks, even without evidence that it was a racially-motivated attack.
Angry white man kills black child who trespassed on his lawn serves the narrative the media prefers. I hope I’m wrong, but I bet we will not hear much more about this savage killing in the media. They will not want to know more about it.

The little boy was in his OWN yard!

My wife posted this on her FB page this morning. Very few likes, totally ignored. Sad.

Remember what those bastards did to Sarah Palin. No mercy.
We can't fight beyond the trees.
We can't fight here.
So tell me, Miss smarty britches. Where exactly CAN we fight?

Fabulous! What talent. I’ll send it to my golf buddies. My game sucks...but I did beat my Kalamazoo golf buddy last time out 49-51 for 9. He fluffs every shot. I call him the KZOO fluffer. We have fun, but he’s somewhat of a tyrant/control-freak/cheatin-self kind of guy. I’ve only been out 3X this year. Great game though...battling self...seeing skills/strength diminish as we get older. Commeraderie...a beer...some laughs. It’s all good. FOUR!
Thanks for all of your posts, LonePalm.
