Those of us who have a bunch of years on us will probably recall that in the 1960 presidential race between Nixon and Kennedy that Nixon's Veep candidate was Henry Cabot Lodge [a GOP blue-blood Senator from Mass.]

His parents were also missionaries and Lodge was born in China. There wasn't any fuss about it at the time and I cannot see any trouble with this either.

‘There wasn’t any fuss about it at the time and I cannot see any trouble with this either.’
Of course there won’t be any trouble with this now either, because they want to keep obumo! Mitt’s nbc issue will never see the daylight just like obumo’s!

That is the sad part - they are trying hard to set precedent! And we let them!
If we let them then we might as well tear up the constitution.

That does not appear to be true.
