+Mark Grayson Yes, what good has ever come from amending the Constitution, right? /sarcasm.

cristian elizondo "What the girl said is dumb as fuck.. The constitution is the constitution.. It is the bible for the US..." It's not supposed to be gospel. It's a legal document written by flawed men some 200 years ago. Hence the need for amendments. Hence what she said is not at all dumb. It's spot on.

Hey, man. You can't just amend the Constitution! Apart from all those times that totally happened and changed the country for the better.

cristian elizondo "Nah slim.. I'm sorry, she wasn't born here, she can't run" Do you know the difference between "is" and "ought"? Cos it seems like you don't. The whole reason she's kicking up a fuss is that she cannot be president, and she feels she ought to be able to when she grows up. Your counter-point makes as much sense as it would have made when women fought for suffrage, to say "Nah slim... I'm sorry, you're women so you can't have the vote". Yes: that's the whole reason for the movement. "if she is able to change the constitution to serve her needs" I'm pretty sure she's not the only US citizen who is not a natural born one. "But we don't need to sit there and break it" I don't need to sit here and listen to paranoid xenophobia.

cristian elizondo "I said if we find a way to change the constitution to suit her, ok it's fine...." I know you said that. It wouldn't be only she that benefited from it. You make it sound like she's a would-be-dictator who wishes to bend the laws of the land to her will. "But at the mean time we shouldn't be breaking it..." Why would the Constitution be broken by allowing non-natural born citizens to run for office? If you don't think that would break the Constitution, why even mention that?
