Donald Trump travels to the U.N. on Tuesday to address the General Assembly. His speech will touch familiar themes, including condemnation of North Korea, Iran, and perhaps even Russia. He will also try to reassure delegates that he believes in an international system but will criticize the U.N. for its timidity on North Korea and its mismanagement and almost certainly urge other countries to do more to fund the organization. The U.S. is currently responsible for about 60% of U.N. funding, and Trump will lecture the delegates about failing to pay their fair share.

The UN is useless.
We should get out.
And get them out of NYC.
Instead, we’re apparently “responsible” for 60% of their funding? I don’t recall seeing that on the ballot.
Expect for the press to go all out nuclear in their negative reporting of Nikki Haley as they start to figure out that she has a much better chance of being the first woman president than any of the far left-wing idiots that the Democrats are pushing.
You got it! I have family in SC and she was a great governor. I know people here don’t like her because she agreed to remove the Confederate flag after that awful shooting by the nutcase in Charleston. But what else could she do to defuse things? He was crazy, but was from an old and important Charleston family and flaunted the Confederate flag. Of course, South Carolina and Charleston in particular are always blamed for kicking off the Civil War so it’s particularly a sensitive matter there. I think she did the right thing under the circumstances, and it took a lot of courage to do it.
However, on other fronts, she got things running right, brought a ton of businesses into SC and revitalized a really sagging state. And she’s strong and decided but does listen to advisors and, best of all, is very pro-American. Something no Dems and not many GOPers have been for about 60 years.
The UN is near the top of a long list of lefty tools that should be de-funded.
And the sooner the better. They are worse than the League of Nations.
U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. was a good career move for her. It gives her foreign policy experience on top of her prior executive and legislative experience.
She is certainly more qualified to be President than anyone on the Democrat list of women in waiting, whose primary qualification is that they pee sitting down.

She was born in the U.S. to parents who were both here as LEGAL immigrants and wholly subject to the jurisdiction of the U.S. She was a U.S. citizen at birth by virtue of her birth. She is not a naturalized citizen. No court is ever going to hold that she is not a natural born citizen since she is undeniably more of a citizen than Obama ever was.

Spin this to your hearts content. Neither of her parents are US citizens....
So your interpretation of “natural born citizen” requires that your parents also be citizens (and not merely legal residents) at the time of your birth. Do they also have to be natural born citizens? If so, how many generations do you have to go back?
Under the 14th Amendment, she was born a citizen. That would not necessarily be the case if her parents had been illegal aliens and, therefore, “not subject to the jurisdiction” of the U.S. That is not an issue because her parents were both here legally when she was born.
Not sure I’m on board with Nikki Haley as POTUS, but certainly better than many who are discussed, and she has done well at the UN. She’d be “First” woman/Indian/Asian POTUS, all wrapped in one. I DID note that her birthday is Inauguration Day.
I am not sure I am on board with Nikki Haley as POTUS either. It will depend on who else is running.
All I am sure of is that she is a hell of a lot more qualified than anyone on the list of vaginas that the Democrats are floating.
Besides, who can forget her blaming a battle flag for causing homicide. That is lunacy.
Even though she promised not to remove the flag, she did it anyway. What a smug expression she had when she announced the flag must go.
She has too much baggage, too many things in her past, like hiding out when flooding hit her state a while back.
One thing is obvious: she dislikes our history.

It’s not my interpretation...it’s the law. If her parents were US “citizens” at the time of her birth, she would be natural born..they were not, and she is not. obama got away with it because he was black, no other reason. Haley, if she should run, will not be so lucky. Same with Rubio. Also applies to Kamala Harris from the democratic party.
No thanks. In addition to siding with the Left on the Confederate Flag and monuments, Nimrata is an enthusiastic supporter of "immigration reform" (i.e. amnesty and open borders). She's basically a female Marco Rubio, and it's a shame that Trump gave her a spot in the limelight to boost her career and name-recognition. I just hope that Nimrata won't be our next Secretary of State if/when Tillerson resigns.
