3rd candidate his lawsuit is on:
Roger Calero was born in Nicaragua in 1969. He and his family fled via Los Angeles, California in 1985. Calero is now a permanent resident alien (holding a green card) since 1990. While in Los Angeles, Calero joined a socialist movement and helped mobilize support against Proposition 187 in the early 90s.
Calero was convicted of felony sale of marijuana in 1988. In December 2002, immigration police arrested Calero upon his return to the United States at the Houston International Airport from reporting assignments at a conference held in Havana, Cuba, protesting the Free Trade Area of the Americas. He was threatened with deportation in 2002 as a result of his previous conviction in 1988.
The SWP considered the conviction to have been a political attack and launched a huge campaign in defense of Calero, mobilizing the partys members and supporters in the U.S. and all over the world. Eventually, the U.S. government gave in to the protests and released Calero in 2003 and cancelled the deportation. The same year, Calero went on an international tour, visiting not only the major cities in the US, but also Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom, Sweden and Iceland to greet his supporters.
Found this on Wikipedia. Do you think this man was vetted?

Found this on Wikipedia. Do you think this man was vetted? Oh, I certainly do think he was vetted, but not by the sort of authority that you mean. He's perfect to create precedent for presidential candidates who are not natural born citizens. Funny, how both major parties fielded candidates with this citizenship issue this year, isn't it? Funny, how they both support a breakdown in citizenship via support for illegal aliens, too. Citizens of the world dislike the United States Constitution. It's a thorn in their sides.

Thanks for the post, jcsjcm
Like Calpernia stated earlier, I feel like I’m on the Twilight Zone.
No, how COULD he have been vetted?
Like I stated earlier, “WAKE UP, AMERICA”
