What would your grandparents say? Forget the bias of the past against blacks etc,, but who would they vote for on principles ?? I know both my grandads and one gma. The moms wouldn't say. Too much but would agree on a female president in secret. The pops would be againts trump because be considered a shyster w his business - too crass for society and anti progress

This is a disgusting comment. America has a long tradition of welcoming immigrants, and you're saying that immigrants who are third generation immigrants somehow have a less legitimate claim to being American than everyone else.

There is already a long waiting period built into the naturalization process. Besides, naturalized citizens are more informed about our country than a lot of the native born, because they have to study extensive materials to pass a test about America.

Good, and they shouldn't be allowed to hold office either.

Anne is likely targeting Hispanics and does not realize how many 65 and older , regardless of ethnicity, would not be qualified to vote which would include both Trump and Hillary.

Trump's mother was an immigrant as we're all 4 grandparents.

3/4 of Hillary's grandparents were born in the US.

No doubt most black people, regardless of age, would be qualified to vote.
