    Oh I seriously doubt you guys would let a white man skate through unchallenged. Georgy Romney was challenged, as was John McCain and Ted Cruz. Congress found all three to be Natural Born Citizens. Only Obama escaped the challenge. Odd that!

    This is true. Perhaps it does need to be modified. That should be by Amendment, not by ignoring the stated requirement.
    I happen to think the intent was to avoid exactly what we got when he went on his apology tour. That a few other Anti American
    actions.

    Or just send over a wealth guy to knock up an American woman. Then raise the kid, educate him to become President.
    Sort of what we got, heh?

    No not at all. Obama was loyal to the United States. He was born here and represented us well.

    The key to happiness is liking what you get, not what you want.

    You were happy.
    Now I am.

    Guess conservatives were really asleep at the switch then, weren't they?

    Must be galling to know that none of them was smart enough to read the constitution until after Obama was sworn in?

    1. No one's pro oil??? "Drill baby drill" was less than a decade ago.

    2. Coincidentally, so was "bomb bomb bomb, bomb bomb Iran".

    3. You know much more than 99% of the scientists in the planet. We should listen to you....

    I never interpreted that as being "Oil is the best!!", so much as, "Better to produce our oil domestically than to import it from OPEC".

    This thread is a good representation of what each side will do if the other side is wrong. Change the talking point to something else they disagree on so they can argue about it. It's actually kind of fascinating, every "scandal" and every bit of dirt comes up and people say those things don't stick, they do but the next day it's old news as each side runs back to the drawing board of things they can insult the other one for.

    I hope I teach my kids that when they're wrong, to admit it, to not run back to the drawing board to find ways to attack who ever called them out for being wrong.

    Maybe you have forgotten that Trump has plans to do off shore drilling along our coast lines. It's nice to become more self suffecient but at what environmental costs. Imagine going to Canon Beach and seeing oil rigs.

    Why bring color into it. Try looking at people as individuals rather than as a color. I do.

    Sure, but what if they find him guilty?

    What's your side gonna do?

    I believe they'll do the exact opposite.

    You either believe the president committed treason or that he didn't.
