Kaine appears not to understand the laws related to national security. Does that disqualify him?

The mother of a sailer who snapped a picture with no ill intention is headed for prison and is flabberghasted at Kaines answers.

 

[Scuba Pete]

Is this the best drivel the White Wingers can come up with??? If you can't see the difference between taking pictures in a restricted area and Clinton's server then one thing is obvious: YOU don't understand security. That's it right there.

Does Trump understand all the laws related to national security? Tell you what, you DQ Trump on those same grounds and you can ax Kaine while you are at it.

 

[whirlingmerc]

No, no.... Trump doesn't assume he's a 'special snowflake' like Hillary does and he doesn't assume he's above the laws written for everyone else...

If someone listens to their advisers and doesn't fake a convenient blood clot in the brain that comes and goes at just the right legal times, they can use qualified advisers to shore up the gaps . Hillary's problem is the people around her don't shore up the gaps, they whitewash the problems.

If you want to DQ one candidate based on a standard, that standard has to apply to everyone. Not just the one you don't support.

 

[whirlingmerc]

Yes, standards and laws are meant to apply for everyone. Let the chips fall where they may..

 

[Quetzal]

Yes, standards and laws are meant to apply for everyone.

In that case, do you believe a lack of knowledge regarding laws related to national security should DQ a candidate? Like your OP title suggests?

 

[whirlingmerc]

I believe if a candidate shows his team is helping whitewash issues or feels they are a 'special snowflake' above the law or defend such they are disqualified. And that knocks out Kaine and Hillary

If Trump works ethically and propperly with advisors he's a possible candidate

I feel like a moderator for the debates. You didn't answer the question.

 

[Quetzal]

I can even make it multiple choice!

a. Yes, I believe if a candidate does not have knowledge of laws related to national security, they should be disqualified.
b. No, I do not believe that if a candidate does not have knowledge of laws related to national security, they should be disqualified.
c. I would like to adjust my argument.
d. Here is 10 bucks, Q, shut up!

Trump has the best snowflakes. They're huge! Nobody has snowflakes like Trump.

That's a nice goal, but it seldom ever works that way.

I am just shy of four feet tall, what does that mean for me?

Not only are you subject to the law,
you're also legal to experiment upon.

But you are yellow. Doesn't that also put you at risk!?

Only for jaundice.

Here are the qualifications for president.

"No person except a natural born citizen, or a citizen of the United States, at the time of the adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the office of President; neither shall any person be eligible to that office who shall not have attained to the age of thirty-five years, and been fourteen years a resident within the United States."

So, as far as the law is concerned, a person could be a mentally handicapped lunatic with a history of pooping on Park Avenue and still be 'qualified' for president if he was born here and over 35.

Even the oath they take only says 'to the best of his ability' so a bad memory or a mental disorder doesn't mean he broke his oath.

It can, and hopefully would, loose him/her votes. But if you meet the constitutional requirements I don't know that you can be legally disqualified.

You post this like it hasn't happened before.

However, being born "here" isn't the only way to be a natural born citizen. I am an American Born Abroad and am eligible to run as well. Unfortunately, my IQ exceeds the current limit applied by the public.

 

[tytlyf]

RW media strikes again. It's best to only rely on credible information sources.

 

[whirlingmerc]

Maybe they can both explain to the moderator in the next debate why they are not 'special snowflakes' as far as obeying the law They can coin toss to see who answers first

As far as obeying the law Hillary has the more to explain.
