Rocky sent me this one....
The following is a funny (scary!) and true story occurring in an AP Government class at Santa Fe High School.
Marion's note: I cannot substantiate the above, but I know for a fact there ARE people out there just like the one below. If you ever listened to Jay Leno's show, and tuned in when he had various young people take part in his quiz segments, it would scare the livin' bejeezus out of ya. OMG!!!
In one civics class, the young adults were discussing the qualifications
to be president of the United States. It was pretty simple. The
candidate must be a natural born citizen and at least 35 years of age.
However, one girl in the class immediately started in on how unfair the
requirement to be a natural born citizen. In short, her opinion was this
requirement prevented many capable individuals from becoming president.
The class was just taking it in and letting her rant, but everyone's jaw
hit the floor when she wrapped up her argument by stating..."What makes
a natural born citizen any more qualified to lead this country than one
born by C-section?"
THEY WALK AMONG US & THEY VOTE!!
