Please understand there is NO Constitutional requirement for the President to meet the qualifications for a security clearance ! Again if you are foolish enough to elect her Angela Davis could be President! (I think we did that only its a guy and its named Obama!)
The act of voting the moron into office gives them the clearance! The President is in charge of the executive branch and the executive decides what is classified and what it not ! The American people put the bank robber in charge of the bank !
There is no requirement for a politician being able to hold a clearance for holding a federal elected office. If the politician has constituents are foolish enough to put him in office, that's his clearance, granted by the constitutional act of winning an election!
Think about what politician GOP or Rat would put himself under such “clearance investigation scrutiny”, if in the course of the investigation the clearance investigator finds out something felonious the investigator is bound by law to report it!
It's the “peoples job” to vet the candidate if the people don't give a rat's pa-toot about national security then you end up with what we have now!
Anyway a pre-election clearance investigation probably could be argued against successfully as a violation of "separation of powers"! Remember the Founding Fathers always thought we would have a majority of people who would actually care about the safety of the nation!
Yet he did have to obtain a U.S. Passport just prior to getting into office.
What do you think his prior passport looked like, or had listed as his nationality?
