"... entirely voluntary agreement"? Bull$#@!.
These institutions - not individuals - are state-mandated roadblocks to the practice of many professions including medicine, your access to one of the three branches of government, professional engineering, most teaching jobs, etc. It is racketeering.
Feel free to defend them, but I hope you are compensated for your "services". Don't forget to wipe your chin.
Ted Cruz is a natural born duel-citizen, as opposed to a natural born American citizen.
That is, in fact the law, but apparently they stopped teaching kids about this during the last decade or so.
The law can be changed but you can't just ignore it.
those kids in the shirts...they're hurting Rands chances.

Brawndo's got what plants crave. Its got electrolytes.
H. L. Mencken said it best:
“Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard.”
"As democracy is perfected, the office of president represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron."
...not sure if serious...
But I think it was great. The media tried to spin it as "those wacky libertarians" being disruptive - but in doing so they had to point out how Cruz's adoring 10,000-strong audience was forced to attend = win. Don't know if the kids planned it that way, but that's the result. I say bravo.

It couldn't have been scripted better. And I am serious. I'm just wondering if this was a grassroots up initiative or a campaign down initiative. These were members of Young Americans for Liberty. Wish there was a forum member in the area that could get some of the "Stand with Rand" students to do an interview.

It was a great episode for both the local Rand activists, and for some factions of the Christian right, as it was a sign that more evangelicals can be reached by Rand's message. If Paulians can be mobilized even within Liberty University, it means positive dialogue can be had with, and some votes can be gotten from this group.

Ridiculous. The natural born citizen clause is just one of many checks and balances against mob rule that the Founders put into our Constitution. Are you one of these people who advocates overthrowing our republican system of government and the entire Constitution in favor of direct democracy? You seem to think the electorate is "smart enough."
Then he shouldn't be President, and if his parents were illegal Russian aliens, he wouldn't be legally eligible to.What if his parents were Russian spies and he was a citizen who was raised to be subversive?
They were born in colonies that declared independence and founded America. And more importantly, they were Americans in 1787, which qualified them to serve as President. I'm pretty sure Ted Cruz isn't 220 years old.The first many Presidents weren't born in America.
Van Buren was born to New York citizens in 1782 and was a citizen in 1787.Martin Van Buren was more Dutch then American.
Yes, everything you have said is nonsense. Correct.It's nonsense
Free societies gnerally aren't ruled by foreign dictators.and is not required in a free society.
Your own words belie this statement. You are an immigrant, and here you are agitating against the Constitution and in favor of foreign dictatorship over this country. You are showing zero respect or loyalty.I've found in my thirty year here that immigrants have much greater respect and loyalty for this country
I didn't realize we had any people as crazy as you on this site. Please leave me alone you jingoistic, xenophobic piece of $#@!.
You are a disgrace to the cause of liberty. You should not be here.
The ultimate minority is the individual. Protect the individual from Democracy and you will protect all groups of individualsRightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual. - Thomas JeffersonI must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

I think every time is a bit of hyperbole.
And I feel 0 remorse for being insulting and condescending to people to people with attitudes deserving of such treatment.
Admittedly, my most recent posts have been more vitriolic and combative than usual and I've been using internet arguments for cathartic release, lately.
But the market doesn't seem to dislike it as much as you do, based on the all the rep I've gotten lately.
Sorry that I have offended you.
