Qualifications - Update

http://newsminer.com/bookmark/9959325

So very sorry to vent here, but to post a comment there you gotta go through this whole sign-up process now and it's just not worth it.

I just wanted to take apart the troll logic for a moment.

No qualifications required other than live in the city limits for a year, etc... And the trolls yuk it up.

Um, yeah. That's pretty much the case for every office in America. You know there aren't really any "qualification requirements" to be President either, right? You just gotta be a natural-born citizen and 35 or older. Tens of millions of US citizens meet those requirements. Doesn't mean they, or Levi, have a snowball's chance in a very hot place of being elected to anything.

Palin-haters have the maturity level of two-year-olds. My apologies to those currently going through the Terrible Twos.

The implication of course is that this means being Mayor is no big deal, therefore Palin is no big deal, etc... Heh. Sure, Levi. You just keep telling yourself that when you get a total of two votes on election day.

Jealous, jealous little boy.

Update -

I decided to look it up because I suspected you have to spend a certain amount of time in the US to qualify to run for Prez, and sure enough - http://www.presidentsusa.net/qualifications.html.

Have to live here for 14 years.

That was a very good vent.
I even feel better.
