The Rest of the Story

The Associated Press is reporting that Douglas Wallace of Reno, NV, has filed a lawsuit in state court claiming that Hillary Clinton is not eligible to be President of the United States. 

Mr Wallace claims the Constitution uses only male gender pronouns in referring to the President and his duties, so clearly, the lack of female gender pronouns in the document would mean that the authors of the Constitution never intended for a woman to be President. 

Nice try, Mr Douglas.

Since I have given some space to the arguments that Senator McCain may not be eligible to be President since he was born in the Panama Canal Zone, I should at least mention that a lawsuit concerning Mrs Clinton’s qualifications has been filed.

I have done so.

Details of the AP story < here > for those who care.

Apparently the idea that Mrs Clinton may be from a different planet has not yet reached Constitutional significance.  I will let you know.
