"that's not how we do it in the foreign country I came from".
Yup, that's exactly the sorts of foreign influence the clause exists to nullify, and hilariously it's coming from -precisely- the sort of person the clause exists in paranoia of, lol. He's a 21st century "imperial candidate".
That's coming from a non-sleazeball who isn't a flight of fancy that -has- expressed political aspirations. I'd vote for him before I'd vote for me, but I still don't know why he would be , or why I should make him (if I could), eligible. He's already said something, as innocent as it is, as true as it is, that makes me doubt his fitness to be "1st Citizen", The Commander in Cheif of our armed forces, and the weilder of executive order and presidential veto. Not even in office yet, and already talking about how they do shit "back home".
The American way has been a broken system for a long time, mass interference's and interdependence from America money has caused more problems then it's fixed. By committing the actions we have has made more enemies over the last 20 years then fixed problems. I've pointed this out many times over, the big boy countries have far more educated people then we do, if you are a true victim of the education system then I'm sorry for you. Sitting in massive student loan debt, most of the Universities that are of any note worthy are to costly even with grants and good luck finding a federally backed loan. That branch of the system is run privately on a for-profit system. We can't even brake away from the religious systems that has been a burden for a painfully long time. Think about it, if we had a other F.D.R in office big donors would be cut off from buying elections and give back some of power we once had over our government.
