SHE was the mother of a potential future president of the United States, yet Mary Trumps early life and particularly how she came to America is shrouded in mystery.
(Excerpt) Read more at thenational.scot ...
There was a discussion thread about this a few weeks ago.
That antique notion could prove useful today. E.g., soldiers of fortune authorized to steal as much ISIS oil as possible and sell it on the world market, subject only to the loosest imaginable rules of engagement. Europe and the world would be apoplectic. The Donald would have to sit down and work out the details with Vladimir ...
The National today publishes the truth that MaryAnne (that is how she signed herself on at least one official form) Macleod immigrated legally and permanently to the USA on May 11, 1930, and that she had no intention of returning to Scotland anytime soon after that she was most definitely not on holiday.
That's irrelevant.
All of the Trumps you cite are eligible, subject to age and residency.
I agree with your post 42, but cannot agree with post 40 due to historical facts.
But that’s OK— I appreciate the amiable discussion.
We've seen so much of culturally clueless people, such as Obama and Niki Haley, who have done horrible cultural damage at least partially because they were brought up in environments where the parents were not in tune with US history, customs, and law. Being a naturalized parent signifies that the parents have sufficient knowledge of their country to bring up children in our traditions.
I'm sure Trump will get a thorough media colonoscopy.
My post asked why Obama never got one.
Mary McLeod Trump
Theres a part two link at the bottom of the story:
The articles throw a slant agaist Trump, but his mom came here LEGALLY, when there was a definitive system to immigration, not the chaos today.
She was naturalized in 1942; Donald was born in 1946.
Trump’s dad Fred, was born here, the son of immigrants who also came here legally.
You mean the Trumps have covered up some of the details of Mary’s early life in America? Next we’ll hear that all her birth records have been sealed. And that her college transcripts are sealed. And that she used a phony SS number that belonged to a dead man from a state she’d never lived in, and....and....er....aah....ummm...never mind!
Some of us did one. It just was never picked up by MSM
No one mentioned the money his great grandfather Rollo Charles Payne left He died in 1968. Probate probably in December of 1971 when his daughter who was executor of the will became BHO guadian was promoted the head of escrow -VP of bank. She moved into penthouse apartment , enrolled Barry in expensive private school
IMO the purpose of book about his father was to keep media from discovery he had inherited millions and with the potential of millions more.
The profit of come from being paid a percentage of the profits from the wells of mineral rights he signed during the depression.
G Grandfather it appears worked for the company that currently owns majority stock in Solyndra.
I should have put a barf alert on this story.
“However many of the birthers (even on here) believe both parents MUST be born here to be an NBC.”
One’s ParentS only have to be American Citizens at the time of one’s birth on American soil.
ParentS may be Naturalized, Natural Born; or one Parent may be Naturalized and the other Natural Born; or they may both be Naturalized or both Natural Born.
The ONLY requirement to be a Natural Born Citizen is to be born In America to ParentS who are American Citizens at the time of one’s birth....Period!
STE=Q
Indeed. Would have helped
Politico also recently did a story on Trump’s Scottish mother and family. Its quite biased against Trump, but it contained some interesting information I thought:
http://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2016/05/donald-trump-scottish-village-scotland-mother-213882
Perhaps the humble origins of the MacLeods of Lewis (mostly poor fishermen) is part of the reason why Trump seems to fit in with the common man in spite of his billions.
Also, theres a short clip up on YouTube of Trumps mother and father being interviewed, if anyones interested in seeing Mary Trump:
