#4 Moseley Braun was dating a dude with serious financial ties to Nigeria's then dictator. She couldn't have been elected dog-catcher, even though her intellectual abilities merited that position and no higher...

#5 I understand she was not the brightest bulb in the socket, shall we say, yet she was elected to represent the great state of Illinois - by Democrats!

Or was she appointed? I've slept since then...

#6 "Except she served an entire term, first" > that pesky 2008-2020 anti-USA OWG-SWO/CWO Omni-Govtist DemoLeft agenda again. *FREEREPUBLIC Netter > COMUNIST PARTY USA Elex Flyer + US Manifesto > 2008 and beyond is likely the best oportune time for the COMMUNIST PARTY USA, etal and aligned Orgs to achieve de facto political power in the USA.

#7 And here I always thought you had to be born American to be president.

It's my understanding that one must have one American parent and be born on American territory to qualify to become president of the United States. Hence, if Barack Obama was born at an American embassy or on a U.S. Armed Forces base anywhere in the world, that would count, as it would if his mother had returned to the U.S. to give birth. On the other hand, I've also been told that simply being born to American citizenship as the natural offspring of at least one American parent suffices. Given that trailing daughter is determinedly anti-political (except for thinking the Democratic Party is for unintelligent reationaries, and that whatever else Senator Clinton must not become president), I haven't worried much about the consequences of giving birth to her in a German hospital.
