(43,850 posts)I guess more likely he gets off the plane and does a photo op, but near as I can tell he'd better not let a single official or citizen anywhere near him.

(2,371 posts)Considering the Constitution only has 3 criteria, it boils down to whether living in PR satisfies the residency requirement I think. Or the years she lived in the States. I think she's a lock on the other 2 (age and natural-born) except among Birther nutjobs who think Pres Obama was secretly Kenyan!

(2,371 posts)Random question of the day: as a PR resident, does she pass Constitutional muster to qualify to serve as President?
From what I've read she specifically represents a political party in PR that supports its current status, rather than statehood, so probably not an option. However, she does have much better temperament, judgement, and qualifications by way of actually governing than the current temporary occupant of the Oval Office.
