WHO IS MORE SENILE
B OR T ???
Biden, of course. It’s not even close. There is no comparison. You’d have to be senile yourself to have to ask such a question.
Trump, of course. It’s not even close. There is no comparison. You’d have to be senile yourself to have to ask such a question since the Democrats in Congress gave Trump an ass-whooping last time he was president. I guess he wants more?
Judge Wallace says the executive branch of her state can determine whether a candidate is qualified and remove unqualified candidates from the state ballot.
Can they just do this to whoever they want? If the state were to try to pull a major candidate off the ballot who was actually qualified, the candidate would sue, win in court, and get back on. Then, he/she would look like a hero.
If the secretary of state really didn’t want Trump on, I think they’d take him off before any court case (after the primary obviously). That way, the burden of proof is on Trump. Instead, now the petitioners have that burden.
Also, presidents are chosen by Electors. A slate of Electors are on the ballot, not the presidential candidate.
What does it mean if 50+% of voters support a so-called “insurrectionist”?
Bigdaddyluvsu and AZ are obviously senile. I think they may both be older than Beijing Biden.
Trump is in excellent mental shape and will have an extremely successful second term after winning a landslide election next year.
1862 LAW >>> 14-3 AMDT
14-3 CRIMINAL CONVICTION REQUIRED —
TOO DIFFICULT FOR ARMIES OF CONLAW MORONS TO UNDERSTAND
Adam, correct, Trump will look like the hero he actually is when the courts ultimately put him back on, he wins hugely, and has the most successful Presidential term in US and world history.
Getting back to the issue at hand, I do not see how the 14th can be used to keep a candidate off the election ballot, because that was not really a thing back when the 14th was written/ratified.
“Getting back to the issue at hand, I do not see how the 14th can be used to keep a candidate off the election ballot, because that was not really a thing back when the 14th was written/ratified.”
Exactly so. When the 14th was written, there were no state printed ballots. Each party printed up its own ballots, or voters created their own, and brought them to the polling place. No one could be restricted from the ballot, since they were all voter or party created. If a disqualified person were elected, then they would have to be barred before taking office, and the office declared vacant, and a special election held.
N-O-T HAVING UN-QUALIFIED CANDIDATES ON BALLOTS —
NOT HAVING CONST OR LAW QUALIFS / PAPERWORK / FEES/ PET SIGS
——–
SAME AS N-O-T HAVING UN-QUALIFIED BALLOT QUESTIONS ON BALLOTS ???
NOT HAVING CONST OR LAW QUALIFS / PAPERWORK / FEES / PET SIGS
DUH.
No ballots needed. Standing count. Qualify through party precinct captain showing up to election hall on election night to lead his men.
