Basic Constitutional Law

Dolly Parton is qualified

The people who think Trump should be allowed to run in spite of being an insurrectionist are the same people who support barring other justice-involved people from merely voting in an election

Fascism, uhhhh... finds a way

People keep saying the GoP will recognize abuse this but they underestimate how little I truly care about politicians. They seem to think everyone cares about politicians as much as they care about Trump. If someone gets disqualified for some minor reason, so what? Seems like a good filter to keep only newer people in the running.

People in politics for decades become corrupt. It happens with power and time. So if they find a way to disqualify Biden, I don’t really care. There’s a hundred million other people who could choose to run. Maybe Greg from down the street might have a shot if politicians who do shit get kicked to the curb when they do shitty shit

[edit] used a wrong word completely. Adding some additional language

And we thought by law Erdoğan could not run for presidency again, and yet did (also the first time because of his questionable university diploma but that is a story for another night kids)

This is the argument that Raphael Cruz was born in Canada and shouldn’t have been a contender for the Republican nomination. I support this logic.

It's quite simple

Omg 35 ????? Thats kinda old

Is this Dropout.tv's Sam Reich's father?

Billie Eilish can't run for president. She is under 35.

Arnold Schwarzenegger can't run for president. He was born in Austria.

Donald Trump can't run for president. He engaged in and supported an insurrection.

It's in the Constitution, folks.

The one thing The Simpsons had wrong was Arnie as the POTUS. I wish that was the time they ignored the constitution – I think he did a decent job as the governator.

Also Matt Gates can't run because he's a pedoph.... oh wait nevermind.

It's not in the constitution. The first 15 presidents and all the original set of American politicians were literally insurrectionists and the original documents were very clear that, that sort of thing is allowed and protected. It's later interpretations of statists that negate it.

Isn't it more like guidelines? French constitution has the first thing written be "everyone is equal, regardless of origin, race, or religion." It doesn't prevent Muslim frol being persecuted, or women to be paid less.

cause you know, president is the most important thing in the entire universe, always.
