Mar 08th, 2016 - 09:07 am - Link - Report abuse 0Loved the image of his fans with their hands in a Nazi salute while Trump made them swear an oath.
Damm I was counting on him running.
Mar 08th, 2016 - 09:20 am - Link - Report abuse 0Well officially USA is SOL .
Out of 320 million people, Hillary and Trump are the best they have??

@ 3 Skip
Mar 08th, 2016 - 01:20 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Mexico can afford to say whatever it likes at the moment.
I suspect that will change dramatically if / when Trump gets the presidency.
Just imagine the pressures that will be put on all the American companies 'working' in Mexico to 'have a word' with the Mexican Pres.
If Mexico stopped the Central Americans at their southern border that would solve 90% of the illegal immigration problems the USA is currently having. It's not really Mexicans that are the problem. The USA is overrun with Central Americans with no education and having babies to get to become citizens.
Mar 08th, 2016 - 04:57 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I think there will be massive changes to the immigration policy no matter who is elected. Changing the policy of allowing non-citizens offspring to become citizens would be first on the list. The current law is a misinterpretation of the constitution that happened in the 1950s that needs to be re-interpreted correctly.
what is SOL?
Mar 09th, 2016 - 01:47 am - Link - Report abuse 0Man.......no matter the name....yb shines through in every greasy little word. A leopard can't lose it's spots nor a zebra it's stripes.
Mar 09th, 2016 - 03:18 pm - Link - Report abuse 0There's a lot of talk that there's been a Grand Jury convened to look into the political corruption of both Bill and Hillary Clinton.
Mar 10th, 2016 - 01:22 pm - Link - Report abuse 0So many people want to see them behind bars.
Probably from the country you reside in yankee boy. Where exactly would that be....Uruguay?
Mar 10th, 2016 - 04:30 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Go back home where they give even less a fuck about you.
Is that your standard come back for every post? Nobody lives where they claim to live?
Mar 10th, 2016 - 09:00 pm - Link - Report abuse 0As Hillary says, What difference does it make?
You'd be better served debating the subject rather than a strawman.

Mar 11th, 2016 - 02:19 am - Link - Report abuse 0The 14th Amendment, Section 1, Clause 1 states:
All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.
Hard to see room for any interpretation which would allow for denial of citizenship to Americans. But, beyond the Amendment, 'jus soli' is a key component of American Exceptionalism. It is the law in every American country and even in Canada, a British country. The US fought and won two wars against the British partially in support of this principle. And now, in order to make the US safe for fat, balding, old white men you want to abandon American Exceptionalism. You want to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Typical of you wingnuts!
Birthright citizenship is as American as apple pie (and feijoada). For this reason it will not, and cannot, be nullified!
No yb.....just all your screen names. The difference would have been none had you claimed your real residence to start. Just how many fucking screen names did MP give you? Your my ace of spades yankee boy.
Mar 11th, 2016 - 03:45 am - Link - Report abuse 0What did I miss? I knew yanqui was Lucifer, but why did he leave the closet?
Mar 11th, 2016 - 11:44 am - Link - Report abuse 0yanqui is merely saying what the Comanches have been saying for ages, but... Is he in Uruguay? Why??
11. You may want to do a little research before you post next time.
Mar 11th, 2016 - 03:34 pm - Link - Report abuse 0The clause will be re-interpreted in the next administration by SCOTUS so there's a final ruling. It was never meant to include children born to illegals.
Hepatia......listen up. Svengali speaks, do you not see his crystal balls?......or is it the Great Oz........I forget.
Mar 11th, 2016 - 07:46 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Svengali's other prognostications:
I see the almighty The Donald moving into the White House
I see gold trim and neon lights on the White House
I see the Negroid back where he belongs
I see the Great Western Wall of America
I see congress outlawing the Democratic party to encourage better freedom of speech
I see a new youth movement called the Double D's, ages 5 to 13
I see Muslims rounded up and placed in Detroit after The Donald's second wall around Detroit is complete
I see.........
Some of those things sound okay me and a lot of Americans.
Mar 11th, 2016 - 07:55 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I hear UK is doing a lot of the same things.

Mar 16th, 2016 - 12:30 am - Link - Report abuse 0I have no doubt that there exists a number of conspiracy theories that state that the 14th Amendment does not mean what it states. Most probably these theories are stated in the same places as those that claim that President Obama was born in Kenya. But I would not dignify finding these tomes of wingnut hand wringing by referring to the process as research. A better verb is dumpster diving.
The 14th Amendment exists, and will continue to exist, despite the loony tunes that you wingnuts like to promulgate.
Hep C.....I know you like to pretend to be think you live in the USA, but have you ever read the 14th? You are aware that there are 5 sections to the 14th, all on a different subject matter.
Mar 16th, 2016 - 07:42 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Why do you insist on pretending to live here? My country must give you a woodie.
Is your standard response to everyone you don't live there?
Mar 16th, 2016 - 10:12 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Just you lucy.
Mar 17th, 2016 - 01:17 am - Link - Report abuse 0Interestingly last week I happened to catch the DR show in which the large number of English illegal immigrants in FL was mentioned. I suppose that a few of the posters on this board would be adversely affected if ICE was to start enforcing the law against these people.
Mar 17th, 2016 - 03:06 am - Link - Report abuse 0I find it highly unlikely that any illegal immigrants living in the USA are anywhere near posting on an insignificant site like MP, Unless you are one of the Hep C. But I think you are not even in the USA.......if so.....just tell me the city. It has nothing to do about wanting to see you, I can give less than shit about you. I want to talk details of locality.
