Re: Is Trump legally qualified to be a presidential candidate?

Re: Is Trump legally qualified to be a presidential candidate?
Ken, I think you are mostly saying: 1. You disagree with the Supreme Court decision, and 2. You wish Congress would act to disqualify Trump Is that right? And you are mostly giving reasons you wish that would happen? I disagree with the Supreme Court punting on this issue. I think that was a partis...

Re: Is Trump legally qualified to be a presidential candidate?
Now lets get back on topic. Could you please clarify what the topic is, and what is on or off topic? A few pages back, I suggested that the topic of this thread is "Is Trump legally qualified to be a presidential candidate?", which the Supreme Court seems to have settled. Is that the topi...

Re: Paul Graham - How to Disagree
I don’t think pointing out someone is of poor character is “as hominem”. Basically. I don’t think people of poor character and with a fundamentally anti-Christian worldview are the right place to go for either the truth or facts. Actually, I think this the very definition of "ad hominem"....
