    Ok, so where do we send impeached for perjury and obstruction of justice President William J Clinton? 

    Russia, China,  or Saudia Arabia---Saudis have given the most to Clinton Foundation. This post was edited by my2cents at June 22, 2018 9:49 AM MDT

    "Saudias"?
    "has gave"

    I'm so disappointed in you right now.

    She'll make something up to justify it.  That's her thing.

      Now, now, Sharonna, play nicely or I will be forced to throw you out of the game.

    What did I make up? 
    President Clinton was impeached for perjury and obstruction of justice on Dec 19, 1998.

      I believe Sharonna was referring to your typos.

      After editing, you still have "Saudias"
    and "have gave".  I'm going to have a nervous breakdown.

      Do you mean obstruction of justice AND treason, or obstruction of justice OR treason?  The use of the slash in between the words leaves ambiguous interpretation, so please clarify.  Thank you. 

      If you mean the latter of the two, please tread lightly, because obstruction of justice covers a wide variety of situations. It can potentially be charged against a person who withholds information being sought in a petty theft case, a person who lies to a police officer on a domestic violence or burglary case, a person who hides evidence in a tax evasion case, or a media person who refuses to divulge the source of information. 

      Therefore, in your little scenario, hundreds or thousands of people would lose their citizenship and face deportation. Isn't that the very antipathy of what you espouse here practically every day??????

    If they are born in the U.S. as opposed to being naturalized, to where would you deport them?

    To the parents homeland or the grandparents or the great grandparents. Now if one is Native America that could pose a problem. But currently that would not be a problem. Whatever country would accept them. What happens a country refuses to accept them? I don't know. I'm gonna ask. Thank you for your question  Spunky and Happy Sunday. Here comes the question.

    (parents')

    To clarify that you are showing possession on a plural noun, the apostrophe is necessary.

    No. Citizens are citizens.

    Trying to strip someone of citizenship is simply an attempt to strip them of their rights. If they have truly committed a crime, you can punish them on that basis. The only reason to strip someone of their rights is if you want to more easily persecute innocent people.

    You should be careful what you wish for. Many people consider your political views to be on the edge of treason. If you are perceived as having pointed the figure at others, others may be inclined to point the finger at you. If you have advocated mercy for your political enemies, we will be more inclined to show you mercy when we crush the left into the garbage bin of history.
