2016 Presidential Candidate Ted Cruz Shoots Full Auto

Praytell, just how does one “denounce” one’s citizenship, and what does one hope to accomplish by, er, talking shit about one’s own citizenship status? And how exactly is this activity related to travelling abroad, Mr. Smartypanties? Or one’s eligibility to serve as head of state?

I’m sure that you MEANT to say RENOUNCED, or rather the person you are trying to repeat to sound smart used such a term. Now, please explain how a three year old is able to renounce his citizenship? And please enlighten me, please state the paragraph in the US constitution or civil code that states that setting foot outside the US or living outside the US or doing anything that Obama may have technically “done” (while a toddler for fuck’s sake) in the company of his mother as she worked in another country for a short time would have any effect whatsoever on his citizenship status or ability to qualify to run for president? Or for that matter what is your basis for believing that there is anything except for intentionally and permanently forfeiting one’s citizenship status and ALL of the rights that go along with it by informing the federal government of one’s intent to do so (generally upon exit from the country, sometimes while already overseas) or becoming a naturalized citizen of another country, OR committing (being convicted of) treason which will result in a forefiture of and individual’s citizenship, which again only when done willfully and intentionally (and PERMANENTLY) is known as “Renunciation” of one’s citizenship?

So how can you vote for someone who follows the constitutional framework if you yourself have but the most fleeting grip on the US constitution’s most basic precepts? Yeah it’s sickening that not only the presidency but every influential elected position in the US federal government are if not exactly for sale such power is certainly not going to anyone but the top bidders, that is to say anybody who does not spend more time either fundraising or engaging in corruption than doing the job they were elected to do – but it ain’t the media’s fault – it’s the supreme count’s. And as much as I hate to say this, it was the appointees of the last president shrub that swung it, and those who were conservatives unanimous in favour of opening elections to even foreign corporate money, removing any semblance of accountability or transparency in the process!

And yet there are still people like you that seem to think the real cause is that the sky is falling because the douchebag we elected this time is half black and has a funny name (and Curious George ears). People that think they know things but are so stupid that they make a fool of themselves as soon as they start typing are often why the internet is entertaining, sure; someone with your level of ignorance legally qualifying for gun ownership however actually scares me more than all the boys 20 miles from me in south LA who do not but still have automatic weapons anyway. 🙂

Naturally though, as you said, the constitution has all this covered and more. After all, the founding fathers were not only psychic but omniscient, there is no reason for there to be any revisions to the perfect prescient document!

I mean, who would doubt that a bunch of alcoholic atheist English aristocratic slave owners who were not in a mood to pay their taxes would draft the perfect charter for a post-colonial world superpower while still living in a colony? More importantly, who could doubt that such men as those who founded the clusterfuck of a quasi-democracy (which is still the greatest nation/political entity in the history of the human race) could have written anything but pure reduced axioms of absolute truth, totally unfettered by the philosophical fashions of their era? Surely men in knickers, wearing powdered wigs made of another man’s hair wrapped around ivory and dipped in talc are men unaffected by the fashions of an age, a man who is able to see the truths of the world uncolored by his own circumstances! Surely they hired rasputin AND nostrudamus and knew exactly what a country of educated people in the modern world would require!

Or not. Hate to break it to you but there were no good old days. The U.S. constitution is not perfect – and must be adapted to a changing world, if done correctly such an activity would give more rights to the people while preserving all of the rights eluded to in the old document, as the original was drafted with the intent of creating a system that gave the illusion of self governance to the uneducated unwashed masses in an agrarian world where fundamental threats to the nation’s existence were limited to enemies physically present en masse, it is rather restrictive and full of buffers to keep power concentrated with the rich and well connected men who drafted it – the second amendment the only provision to prevent them becoming tyrants. Perhaps a revision also contain a framework for allowing our dinosaur of a federal government to be scraped off the backs of the people, allowing us to be a nation greater in the future than that of our fore-bearers was in the past. At the rate we are going right now we may well end up spending the next century sucking on china’s small but highly effective, er, balance of trades – while they keep getting richer and smarter by doing what we should be doing – utilizing America’s legacy of knowledge, tremendous wealth and hard work to grow like mad, all the while becoming leaner and smarter at each and every step. And our business leaders and criminally rich overclass are using china’s hunger and ability as a means to sell US out, while our “constitutionally constrained” government does little to discourage such practices and nothing to stop them!

But YEAH sure it’s all because Obama is half black and lived in Indonesia for a few months as a toddler, and because we are not governing our country the way that our great-great-grandparent’s generation did a hundred years ago! Mind you a hundred years ago there was absolutely no restriction on immigration nor controls on our southern border other than customs – so if we did go back to what the constitution says and the founding fathers intended, it would be perfectly legal for the entire population of Mexico to walk across the border tomorrow and decide that they live here now – and as soon as they could pass the (spanish language) test on american history and government, say the pledge of allegiance, salute the flag and sign their card they would become naturalized citizens forever. It was about 100 years ago the federal reserve took it’s current form as well. Still think there were good old days and we would be better off if our elected officials were forced to act as if it were still 1910?

Alright all this typing isn’t getting me anywhere, I’m still pissed off and I learned long ago that one who shows wanton ignorance is nearly always willfully ignorant as well, so good luck with that. I’m going out back to fire a few bursts of automatic 7.62 at the first squirrel that pisses me off.

Why don’t you take your ill informed and lying Far-Left wing BS somewhere they want to hear it Robert ~!

I’m with Mark and Bob on this one. I have no interest in living under religious law, Sharia or otherwise.
