Feb 11 23:45:18 <FunnymanSE30> Obama won maine!
Feb 11 23:45:36 <LSD`> Bros before Hos, man!

Feb 11 23:45:58 <-- Aquaraptor (n=raptor@unaffiliated/aeroraptor) has left #68kmla ("Leaving")
Feb 11 23:48:04 <FunnymanSE30> fo sho
Feb 11 23:53:39 <JohnMM> LSD`, lol yeah ...I'm tired
Feb 11 23:55:32 <JohnMM> obama ftw
Feb 11 23:55:38 <JohnMM> who did you vote for FunnymanSE30 ?
Feb 11 23:55:41 <techfury90> mhm
Feb 11 23:55:53 --> iMac600 (n=mbrice@C-59-100-159-56.ade.connect.net.au) has joined #68kmla
Feb 11 23:56:45 <Whitesnake> Does it look like Obama will beat Clinton overall?
Feb 11 23:57:09 <techfury90> he's gaining a *lot* of momentum lately
Feb 11 23:57:16 <techfury90> very very very close to surpassing her
Feb 11 23:58:05 <Whitesnake> Do you think he will be the next president?
Feb 11 23:58:10 <techfury90> i hope.
Feb 11 23:58:16 <techfury90> it looks pretty likely though
Feb 11 23:58:44 <Whitesnake> unless someone pulls out the old racism card.
Feb 11 23:58:48 <techfury90> of course.
Feb 11 23:59:07 <Whitesnake> could smear his campaign and knock him off.
Feb 12 00:00:07 <Whitesnake> I think Clinton would be more interesting in office.
Feb 12 00:01:45 <Whitesnake> if Clinton or Obama get in does it not potentially open the door for Arnie in the future?
Feb 12 00:02:37 <redrouteone> Arnie?
Feb 12 00:02:43 <techfury90> the governator
Feb 12 00:02:48 <Whitesnake> Yeah.
Feb 12 00:02:57 <Whitesnake> He could run one hell of a campaign I think.
Feb 12 00:03:04 <redrouteone> He can't be president. He was not born in the US.
Feb 12 00:03:14 <Whitesnake> So I've been told
Feb 12 00:03:23 <Whitesnake> But surely that could be amended?
Feb 12 00:03:28 <techfury90> not easily.
Feb 12 00:03:33 <Whitesnake> He has been a citizen for quite a long time.
Feb 12 00:03:49 <techfury90> amending the constitution is no easy feat
Feb 12 00:04:39 <redrouteone> Nope, one could say that it Takes an act of Congress.
Feb 12 00:04:48 <Whitesnake> have all presidents in history been born in the USA?
Feb 12 00:04:50 <techfury90> yes.
Feb 12 00:05:14 <Whitesnake> Not born outside then moved to the USA just after they were born.
Feb 12 00:05:32 <techfury90> even George Washington was born in the USA.
Feb 12 00:05:41 <Whitesnake> All immigrants anyway
Feb 12 00:05:48 <Whitesnake> When you go far enough back ;)
Feb 12 00:05:54 <techfury90> ya
Feb 12 00:05:56 <Whitesnake> Not that far really
Feb 12 00:06:39 <redrouteone> Huh??
Feb 12 00:06:52 <Whitesnake> ?
Feb 12 00:06:58 <-- coius has quit ("The Lid has been closed on this MacBook, i will bbl")
Feb 12 00:07:08 <redrouteone> <Whitesnake> All immigrants anyway
Feb 12 00:07:08 <redrouteone> <Whitesnake> When you go far enough back ;)
Feb 12 00:07:15 --> Aquaraptor (n=raptor@unaffiliated/aeroraptor) has joined #68kmla
Feb 12 00:07:25 <redrouteone> I don't understand what you are trying to say.
Feb 12 00:08:59 <Whitesnake> USA is just over 200 years old or near about that.
Feb 12 00:09:10 <Aquaraptor> wtf are you forserious
Feb 12 00:09:18 <Aquaraptor> time to bust out the history books
Feb 12 00:09:19 <Whitesnake> ;)
Feb 12 00:09:37 <redrouteone> Yeah so, I don't know of anyone that is 200 years old.
Feb 12 00:09:41 <Aquaraptor> are you trying to be cute?
Feb 12 00:09:48 <Whitesnake> No.
Feb 12 00:10:08 <Aquaraptor> 1776 much? jamestown? HELLOOOO
Feb 12 00:10:23 <redrouteone> Actually almost 232 years
Feb 12 00:10:40 <Whitesnake> I said over 200
Feb 12 00:10:57 <Whitesnake> That is nothing compared to the rest of the world nations though. ;)
Feb 12 00:11:08 <Aquaraptor> what's your point?
Feb 12 00:11:16 <JohnMM> the us is 232 yrs old
Feb 12 00:11:23 <redrouteone> Yeah so. That has nothing to do with that we were discussing.
Feb 12 00:11:29 <Whitesnake> That it is a nation founded on immigrants
Feb 12 00:11:32 <JohnMM> take a look at http://wiki.answers.com/Q/When_was_the_United_States_of_America_founded
Feb 12 00:11:34 <Whitesnake> a modern one.
Feb 12 00:11:38 <redrouteone> So.
Feb 12 00:12:01 <Aquaraptor> glorious canada isn't that old either
Feb 12 00:12:07 <Whitesnake> it just seems ironic.
Feb 12 00:12:09 <redrouteone> We were talking about the requirement for the President to be a natural born citizen.
Feb 12 00:12:21 <Whitesnake> You could claim some sort of pedigree on a nation that is 1000 years old
Feb 12 00:12:47 <Aquaraptor> uhm Whitesnake
Feb 12 00:12:54 * techfury90 wants some of this good stuff
Feb 12 00:12:55 <Aquaraptor> why would a non american even want to be president?
Feb 12 00:13:07 <redrouteone> WTF are you going on about.
Feb 12 00:13:07 <Whitesnake> Change the world?
Feb 12 00:13:15 <techfury90> because my hydrocodone based cough syrup (that's vicodin for laymen) isn't as good as what Whitesnake has.
Feb 12 00:13:15 <Aquaraptor> Whitesnake, yeah right
Feb 12 00:13:23 <iMac600> it happens
Feb 12 00:13:47 <FunnymanSE30> someone could move to the united states at 2 years old
Feb 12 00:13:48 <Aquaraptor> how would someone from another country really change the world? the president isn't all powerfull you know, there are other people
Feb 12 00:13:59 <Whitesnake> Should a British person get some sort of pardon if they run for presidency.
Feb 12 00:13:59 <FunnymanSE30> and eventually want to be prez
Feb 12 00:14:03 <redrouteone> The requirement is on the President himself and his ancestry.
Feb 12 00:14:47 <redrouteone> I mean and not his ancestry.
Feb 12 00:14:53 <Whitesnake> Tony Blair for President :)
Feb 12 00:14:58 <JohnMM> the requirements needed for oen who wants to run for presidency is outlined here http://www.lawforkids.org/speakup/view_question.cfm?id=388
Feb 12 00:15:30 <Whitesnake> a natural born ;)
Feb 12 00:15:38 <Whitesnake> What isn't a natural born?
Feb 12 00:15:41 <techfury90> yes, that's what we've been saying.
Feb 12 00:15:43 <redrouteone> So are you just being silly or do you want to discuss something meaningfull?
Feb 12 00:15:46 <Whitesnake> test tube baby ;)
Feb 12 00:16:07 <techfury90> very funny.
Feb 12 00:16:15 <JohnMM> http://usgovinfo.about.com/od/thepresidentandcabinet/a/presrequire.htm also looks good
Feb 12 00:16:16 <Aquaraptor> this isn't exactly a place for politics anyways
Feb 12 00:16:39 <techfury90> natural born means you were either born inside the us, or outside the us to parents who are citizens
Feb 12 00:17:14 <redrouteone> Eh, if we are going to having a meaningful conversation I'll stick around for a while. If it is just random BS it is time for bed.
Feb 12 00:17:25 <techfury90> redrouteone, yeah really.
