    Ok, so she had to remove her mask to spit in the guys face, right? Well at that point shouldn't have another woke Stepford Wife then crashed her cart into her and spit in her face for removing her mask???  And then a third one steps up to spit in that one's face, and so on, and so on...... Imagine the Liberal circle jerk that would turn into.

    Stone is the 10th criminal personally and politically connected to Trump to receive a presidential pardon or commutation. Mitt Romney put it best: “Unprecedented, historic corruption: an American president commutes the sentence of a person convicted by a jury of lying to shield that very president.”

    Mitt Romney is a quisling douche bag, just the kind of guy I expect you to quote.

    By long standing US federal law, the child of a US citizen is a US citizen even if born outside the US unless he or she chooses otherwise by renouncing his or her citizenship.  Since Obama's mother was an American citizen, he is an American citizen by birth regardless of his father's citizenship or where he was born, just as the late John McCain, who was born in the Panama Canal Zone. 

     

    A birth certificate is NOT a prerequisite to becoming POTUS,  citizenship is, and no other major party presidential candidate except Obama has ever been even asked to show anybody his/her birth certificate.  None of the POTUS born before 1900 had one, since the recording of births -- and deaths -- by local governmental jurisdictions only began after the Civil War.   Before that, that information might be kept in church baptismal records if the family's church was a denomination that believed in infant baptism but those records could be easily lost in fires, floods or simply the closing of a church.   It's why the practice of recording births and deaths in family Bibles developed in the US.

     

    So then are you saying submitting tax returns is a prerequisite to becoming POTUS?

     

     

    This reminded me of a great trivia question, who was the first POTUS to be born in a hospital?

    Oddly enough, I did some research into my last name (which doesn't sound Polish at all). Turns out, it's a rather common name in the Posnan area, and ONLY in the Posnan area. This was discovered through a search of parish records in Poland.

     

    I've been scouring the internet, but can't find what I'm looking for. I read an article a few years ago that would identify what part of Poland your ancestors came from based on the Polish words you remember them saying. My area came up as Posnan too, and the kicker was if you remember your relatives calling the end pieces of bread the "kroonka", you're from the Posnan region.

     

    BTW I'm almost all Polish with a little Swedish mixed in.

    Robert Johnson's Big Idea: $14 trillion in slavery reparations to African-Americans

    'I think that would be a huge emotional assuaging of guilt'

    By Marisa Schultz | Fox News

     

    Robert Johnson, the founder of Black Entertainment Television, says it's time America atones for slavery and systemic racism by paying African-Americans reparations to make them economically equal to white Americans.

     

    Johnson, the first black billionaire in the United States, has put a price tag on the debt America owes to African-Americans at $14 trillion.

     

    "Nobody talks about cash, but black people understand cash," Johnson told Fox News.

     

    Under his proposal, an estimated 40 million African-Americans would get $350,000 in direct cash payments over 30 years (costing the average taxpayer roughly $2,900 a year, according to his office). The $350,000 would signify the wealth disparity between African-Americans and white Americans.

     

    To say this is controversial is an understatement. Some Democratic lawmakers have warmed to the discussion, but often in the form of commissions and other partial measures. A Fox News poll last year found most Americans are opposed to cash reparations. And with the government already spending trillions on coronavirus relief and the national debt pushing past $26 trillion, concerns about the country's fiscal stability would pose an obvious hurdle.

    ...debt owed by taxpayers?.....who the hell did WE TODAY enslave?......dangerous stuff.............

     

    Q: Would this be a special reparations new tax that would fund this program?

    Johnson: Ultimately, it's a debt owed by the taxpayers. And reparations is a debt owed by the nation as a whole because all of the wealth that was taken from slaves. Free labor is a transfer of wealth.

     

    "but black people understand cash." 

    Really?  That sounds racist to me, are they unable to understand stocks and bonds, deferred taxes, commodities markets, mutual funds?

    Only cash, huh?? There's something simple enough for black folk to understand.
