Too bad he wasn't born in the USA. He would have been a better President than the Clowns we usually elect. Question: What are the Requirements to Become President? Answer: The US Constitution lists three requirements for any individual wishing to become president of the United States. A president must: 1. Be a natural born U.S. citizen. Someone may be born abroad, but only if both parents were citizens of the United States. The only exception to this was for those around at the time the Constitution was adopted. Their requirement was that they had to be a citizen when the Constitution was adopted. 2. Be at least 35 years of age. The youngest president elected was 43 years old. However, there was one president who was even younger. Do you know who he was? 3. Have lived in the United States for at least 14 years to be president. This does not have to be consecutive or even the 14 years leading up to becoming president. Obviously, a lot more is needed than this. The candidate must be acceptable to a large number of people across the nation. Nonetheless, these are the minimum constitutional requirements for someone to become president of the United States. |

Be a natural born U.S. citizen. Someone may be born abroad, but only if both parents were citizens of the United States Strange. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jus_soli Jus soli (English pronunciation: /dÊ’ÊŒs ˈsoÊŠlaɪ/; Latin pronunciation: [juËs ˈsÉ”.liË]), meaning "right of the soil",[1] commonly referred to as birthright citizenship, is the right of anyone born in the territory of a state to nationality or citizenship.[2] As an unconditional basis for citizenship, it is the predominant rule in the Americas, but is rare elsewhere. |

Mass influx of immigrants into the US? In all culture and societies there is what we call here "Folk and Fä". People and cattle. (Fä is derogatory) |

Why are the US so very much engaged in other countries affairs? Not only in Europe, Africa as well. https://news.vice.com/story/the-u-s-is-waging-a-massive-shadow-war-in-africa-exclusive-documents-reveal I think I know the answer. Do you? |

Do "Folk and Fä" both refer to people? No. Of course not. Fä is an old world for animals in a farm. Like Fähund (Fä dog) meaning You Bastard . Then we have of course Fäbodjänta. (A girl keeping animals) A female cowboy as you wish:) Kulning https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hyfdkvvzyzQ The old way of herding live stock (in the middle of north Sweden) and of communication between herding women on mountains and between them and the home places down in the valley. |

Do "Folk and Fä" both refer to people? LOL:) When it comes to idioms Google doesn't help anybody:) Have you ever tried using Google to translate Russian? Heck. They don't even use the same letters like we do. And so do Ukrainians. And their letters are different to Russian:) It's a small world with MANY languages. |

Was just wondering if "Folk and Fä" had another (non Google) meaning in Swedish Culture. Well we have also a more contemporary song about them. As always:) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yv2JIaX_O5w Life's is a party!!! Lyrics! Use your favorite computer translator. På fredagskvällen bubblar det i blodet, man är kåt Life is a party Keep up with it, people and animals And if life is a plague The drunkenness warms the best. |
