    No, a trans age of 35 recognised by Congress so that someone under 35 can become President! I can't see how a way could be found to get around the presidential age requirement. There is a much higher chance that the age minimum would be lowered than trans age be recognised!

    Like so many Americans, and forum members, you confuse Socialism with Communism. They are NOT the same, or even similar.

    One is the precursor to the other.

    And even the precursor you espouse only functions in the limited constraints I noted.

    I disagree. Successful socialist countries in Europe are NOT evolving into communist ones. After watching what happened to the USSR, China, Cuba, Yugoslavia, and Venezuela, they have no desire to go communist. I support Democratic Socialism. I DON'T support communism. They are very different animals.

    The comment "only applies to men" is really really dumb.

    That said - few politicians these days understand the founding principles - and of those that do - many ignore them.

    Communism - as practices in the Soviet Union - was totalitarianism.

    Wealth Redistribution is not any more a precursor to totalitarianism than Oligopolism.

    Just a couple of points.

    1. If Trump had suggested violating the Constitution, there'd be three or four bills of impeachment within 24 hours. Seems a double standard exists.
    2. She took an oath of office which states you will uphold the Constitution. Seems like you'd at least be curious what it says.
    3. Based on repeated statements she has made since taking office, it seems she is truly this uninformed.

    That's because modern day Dem Party voters have been convinced that anyone to the Right of Mao Tse Tung is a hard core foam at the brain pan knuckle dragging conservative (including all standard negative connotations vigorously promoted by today's leftist loyal mainstream media).

    So if you think our Constitution is outdated, archaic and needs to be overturned....then just come out and say it! I'm sick and tired of all the panty waste liberals that are too cowardly to say what they mean! Grow a pair! Be like the new young socialist/communists that are up and coming in the United States Congress. Carry their banner proudly and openly! Then perhaps, we can go to war!

    I wish these nut jobs on the left and right just shut up. all they do is give fodder to paint the majority of each other party with the same brush. All we end up talking about in this country is the outrageous things the polar extremes are saying. We got people saying if you want single payer you are a communist and a thief and other people floating 70% tax rates on people. People who believe in citizenship through legal immigration are called racist.

    I remember when politicians were praised for the compromising skills, now the fringes call them sell outs. So much for leaders, these guys are frontrunners of a mob. They don't even pretend to be a leader but just a follower of the mob that helped elect them and who would turn on them in an instant.

    I don't want to comment on her looks, but I rate her at about a 5 on the looks department. I mean, she's not bad but she's not my first or second choice either.

    AOC is the lefts equivalent of Trump. Every tweet she twitters reduces the collective IQ of the entire world. She is an ignorant, uneducated moron with no knowledge of history, current events or even basic government operations. She is an idiot and imbecile to the nth degree.

    How did a meme of a few thousand people(at best), become a political paradigm in 2019? I'm STILL trying to wrap my head around this. 63 Million people voted for the President. Of them, at best .5% of them belonged to said such extremist groups. So how do we discuss them as though they're more prominent then they are?

    The extremes also feed news outlets. Which they in turn pump out as the truth and normal.
