You must have never read the 14th Amendment if you believe that.

Is Pete Rose eligible to be President?

That wouldn't matter. Changing the definition of one word today cannot change the more than 500 year old definition of a completely different phrase.

He is "superior in thinking to Rush Limbaugh".

Dang, the 6-year old next door is. And so's his dog.

Chill, roysoldboy. You keep up this level of anger... you're going to bust a gusset.

HD has been pointing his bow through the fog, and fighting the good fight against birthers for quite some time.

What else would you expect?

Depends on motivation.

He might just be some low-life anti-racist.

Most likely though, it goes much deeper.

The 14th Amendment does not apply to "people", Roy.

It applies to persons.

Corporations are persons.

The Supreme Court has not yet decided what exactly "alive" means.

The Court needs to read Ayn Rand's "We the living."

"We the Living is a complex and intriguing narrative that plays on the impressions of human will. The tale of three people - Kira, Andrei and Leo - seems to represent three different attitudes to oppression. Kira represents the ideal resolute who perseveres against all hurdles, while being realistic. Andrei, a man of impeccable character, is nevertheless ruined because of his affiliations to the wrong side of the political fence. Leo, an idealist, loses his energy very early in the struggle due to his uncompromising nature towards life. Ultimately, the author portrays a very dark scene where the role of the individual is diminished to such an extent where morality as a virtue ceases to exist and is replaced by a need for existence and individual assertion."
