It is funny to me that no one had this requirement before.
From what I understand the political parties vetted their predidential candidates. A check and balance to that was the media back in the day before media leaders were coopted by the left. You know, when reporters were journalist-Americans first—not demrat spokespeople. They wrote bios of all the candidates which always included their place of birth. That is a fact any self-respecting reporter would have checked back then.
In any case, the left simply decided that part of the Constitution foreign birth. It’s media lap dogs enabled them. It took a while before the question of Onada’s birth became more or less well known. By that time the man had already slithered into the WH. Then, too many conservative and Pubbie politicians decided to let it slide for fear of being called racist. Up to recently, Onada has been successfully avoiding a show down by flashing bogus documents that can’t be documented themselves. They they tried Alinsky tactics: Ignore the question and belittle the people and groups posing it. Not working. Thank God for the internet.
They will be trying the politics of personal and group destruction next. I mean, the Army attempted to make the lieutenant colonel who refused to be deployed undergo psychiatric evaluation. The classic and ultimate Marxist response to anyone who does not agree with them is psychiatric confinement, consignment to the Gulag and/or death. And it’s all happening right now in America.
