Xenophobia: fear or contempt of that which is foreign or unknown, especially of strangers or foreign people.
Actually, no. I was referring the part of US citizenship which denotes a loyalty to the United States. I failed miserably (and, ok, pathetically) to believe in his patrionism when he refuses, for instance, to wear the United States flag pin on his chest, or to hold his hand over his heart for the Pledge of Allegence (so our potential future president does NOT pledge allegence????)
This guy isn't wearing a flag pin or holding his hand over his heart either, was or is he unpatriotic?

Does this mean that Hillary Clinton is the only candidate running that is qualified to be president? LOL And who is it that says she should pull out? We need at least one qualified candidate.
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; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.
I must be missing something here. A person can be a natural born citizen and be born in any country to American parents. This is the first time I had ever noticed the 14 years a resident within the United States rule.
My question was how long Obama has been living in the USA. If he has been here since he graduated from college, it has been 14 years. I was a little alarmed that he has been Senator for such a short time. Except that he can get bunches of people to vote for him, what makes him qualified to be president. It was interesting that Political Science is his major and he made good grades in that. That does not qualify him to be president in my eyes.

That man was a military hero, well decorated. Terrible President but still a military hero who no one can question his patriotism. On the other hand we have reasons to believe the "other" man is not patriotic or even likes America, his wife sure doesnt.
