Any Presidential Candidate who was not smart enough to have their Staff do a “Google” search to figure out what they needed to do is not a Candidate I want in the running for President of The United States.

“In his opinion, Judge Gibney wrote, “They [the candidates hoping to appear on the ballot] knew the rules in Virginia many months ago; the limitations on circulators affected them as soon as they began to circulate petitions. The plaintiffs could have challenged the Virginia law at that time.
