So far my only problem with Ramaswamy is that he is Indian, not the American kind but the “India” kind of Indian, and it isn’t because he is of Indian descent or Hindu; it is a question of eligibility. . . .
The qualification to be a “natural born Citizen” is that the candidate’s parents had to be either born in the United States or have become naturalized citizens before the candidate was born. I don’t know if Ramaswamy qualifies as a natural born Citizen. I WILL NOT vote for any candidate who falls short of the qualifications laid out in the Constitution, regardless of how much I like their ideas and believe in their sincerity.

As I stated before, I don’t know if Ramaswamy is eligible to be president or not but will find out before any voting takes place, and I am positive that if he is not constitutionally eligible that devildemocommiecrats will be shouting it from the rooftops as soon as they discover it. His biography says he was born in 1985, making him eligible by age, and it gives a bit of information about his parents but doesn’t answer the question of his “natural born” status. If nothing else, maybe he can drag the ever-left-moving gop back to where sane people can count on them to follow the Constitution and not ignore it to curry favor with the marxists who make so much noise these days. I hope he is qualified as a natural born Citizen because I really like his ideas for making America great again.
I'll take the over on Ramaswamy's dropping out before the first primary.
