Birther logic - a natural born citizen
This just might make your day a little brighter!! You, who worry about democrats versus republicans -- relax, here is our real problem.

In a Purdue University classroom, they were discussing the qualifications to be President of the United States. It was pretty simple!

The candidate must be a natural born citizen of at least 35 years of age.

However, one girl in the class immediately started in on how unfair was the requirement to be a natural born citizen. In short, her opinion was that this requirement prevented many capable individuals from becoming president.

The class was taking it in and letting her rant, and not many jaws hit the floor when she wrapped up her argument by stating, "What makes a natural born citizen any more qualified to lead this country than one born by C-section?"

Yep, these are the same kinds of 18-year-olds that are now voting in our elections!

They breed and they walk among US...

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

4. I received it by email
and posted it verbatim. My problem with it is that Democrats aren't involved in the 'natural born citizen' argument - that consumes ReTHUGS and teabaggers.

7. Obviously she has read Macbeth
MACBETH

12 I bear a charmed life, which must not yield
13 To one of woman born.

MACDUFF

Despair thy charm,
14 And let the angel whom thou still hast served
15 Tell thee, Macduff was from his mother's womb
16 Untimely ripp'd.

11. What a hoot...
Thanks for an early morning chuckle. It is also a bit scary, however, coming from a University student as opposed to a pre-schooler who can't vote.
