Wasn’t this creep vetted before he ran? What the heck is the FBI/secret service/CIA/ad nauseum doing anyway?

I think we're seeing the exposure of a mammoth hole in our election system. If I understand what I've read correctly, candidates are certified as eligible at the STATE level. And when queried on vetting of presidential candidates in California, the Secretary of State said that candidates are vetted by the PARTY. So we depend on the Democrats' honesty and diligence?

It should absolutely not be possible to become a presidential candidate without first proving eligibility, yet I believe that has clearly happened here. I believe this man is definitely not a natural-born citizen and quite possibly not a U.S. citizen AT ALL.

It should also not be possible to become a presidential candidate when you can't pass even a low-level security clearance background check, yet there is NO doubt that this has happened here. If you don't believe that, let you or I apply for a government job that requires a security clearance, and let the background check reveal that we have spent time in the company of domestic terrorists, and see if you or I get that job. My wife worked years ago for a U.S. Attorney, and the FBI was all in a dither during her background check because she once visited a man in the hospital who had ties to counterfeiting.

I'm absolutely convinced that we have the most stupendous example imaginable of the left hand not knowing what the right hand is doing. Or to put it more accurately, what the right hand is NOT doing. It's nobody's official job to see the proof of citizenship, so it just doesn't get seen. It's nobody's job to say, "Hey, we couldn't clear this guy to work as a receptionist at many government facilities," so it doesn't get said.

The result is staggering. There are now many suits filed on the citizenship issue, but the security issue remains untouched and unnoticed as far as I can tell. Unbelievable.

This, my FRiends, is what a coup d'bureaucracy looks like.

The whole reason for the Natural Born Citizen requirement is to avoid foreign influence at the highest level of government. For similar reasons, those in the military, including civil servants and contractors, who work in "Presidential Support Activity", need what is known as a "Yankee White" clearance. One of the requirements is that the person not have any close relatives; spouse, children, siblings, who are foreign citizens. Obviously, The One, has lots of siblings in Kenya, and at least one in China. That requirement can be waived but "it must be determined that family members are not subject to physical, mental, or other forms of duress by a foreign power and who do not advocate or practice acts of force or violence to prevent others from exercising their rights under the constitution or laws of the United States or any State or subdivision thereof". The problem with that is that O's cousin Odinga, *is* an official, the number 2 IIRC, of the dictatorial Kenyan regime, who used just such duress and physical force to get into that number 2 slot.

IOW, Barry couldn't even qualify to empty the sewage tank on Air Force One.

The usual vetting process was voided because of the risk being called racist, yet he is still 50% WHITE, go figure. I am sure his previous career path has lot of affirmative actions involved also!!!
