another swing and a miss.

It was a simple question.

Is the son of Bin Laden/Adolph/Stalin/Mao, eligible?

Thanks for playing.

Who's this “son of Bin Laden/Adolph/Stalin/Mao” that you speak of?

It's an odd attempt to characterize someone as those four individuals advocated mutually exclusive political philosophies.

Your hypothetical completely ignores the political process.

Do you think a candidate with the last name of Bush has a chance of getting elected to any office in this political climate? Clearly they would be eligible.

Do you think a candidate with the last name of Bin Laden would have a little difficulty getting party support and/or votes...even from the Dems?

Do you think a candidate with the last name of Hitler might have difficulty winning any Jewish support?...or for that matter, human support?

Charles Manson's son is eligible...what's gonna stop him?

On the other hand, in a couple of generations, a direct descendant of Stalin, born of "American" parents would be eligible to be the presidential nominee for the Democratic Party.

The point is that eligibility is an important issue, but a thorough political vetting process is what will filter out the undesirable candidates.

Who knows? After the drunken orgy broke up, the four agreed never to speak of it again, and nine months later the poor infant was left on some anonymous church door.
