Happy Birthday, Obama! (or IS it?!?)

Posted by JaxSean (aka JaxSean) Aug 4 '09, 05:38

"No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President..."

Read it again. It's not just about where you were born. It says you can never be president unless you were alive in 1788.

That leaves out everyone but Robert Byrd.

Another case of one too many commas. Remove the one after "United States" to make it read the way I'm sure they meant it. -- nm - mara Aug 4, 05:41 2
