    Yeah I got more what you were saying after I posted. Only half paying attention to what I'm doing on here, my bad :P

    It was just poor wording. (Ann Coulter? Shock!) She most likely meant to say 'at least have all 4 of your grandparents born in the US' but it came out stupid.

    Either way, I'm eligible, as long as they don't push it back another generation

    This sounds like that thing they did to ensure only white people could vote in the south after slavery ended.

    Just roll it all the way back. Only land owning white males over the age of 21 I says! It worked for our Founding Fathers and it can work for us!

    Yeah, my great grandparents were from France and Austria. So I'd be out if they went back that far.

    TL;DR: If people would've sent information about Trump, they would've published. It's entirely on the back of people who fight to hide the truth that this election has solely focused on Democrats.

    TL;DR2: Wikileaks is not the enemy, no matter how you try to paint it.

    Looking forward to see who's elected. In any case, whomever goes in is a loss for america, but hopefully will better the country in a way or another.
    It's amazing how just posting someones emails makes you biased lol. If there had been nothing shady going on in the DNC no one would have cared they released the emails.

    As am I. And both of my grandfathers fought the Nazis, who were the ones who made laws representing what Coulter suggested.

    No I'm pretty sure the republicans would raise a stink about it to get political traction regardless.

    As evidenced by the fact that the "something shady" emails have yielded absolutely nothing of importance. And lo and behold, the republicans have been beating that dead horse for months.

    What is now Czech Republic, Germany, and UK for me, except I think 2 of the 8 were the first born here for their families. At least one was, because one was 1/2 Native American.

    Well, may we agree or not, the depth of the corruption the DNC was in could only make people want some change in how politics works. Ultimately, some found closure and peace with Trump, but not everyone did. The fact is, however, that even if you vote for Hillary, blindly saying that she is clean is a fallacy.

    But that doesn't mean that ultimately she will be entirely bad.

    I look forward to see who will win, no matter who does, and what will come from it.

    So how's voting going so far? Any early estimations?

    No, nothing has been counted. There are SOME early exit poles, but those are kinda meaningless. Even in cases like CO where ~60% of the people have already voted (mail in).

    And that's what I am saying, how wikileaks email leak exposed corruption in the DNC and people are pissed calling it biased, if there had been nothing in the emails, no corruption then there wouldn't be egg on the DNC's face.

    Just a couple of more hours untill it is time to stop logging in on MMO-C in risk of pissing on Trump voters parade.
    But soon after Mr Xi secured a third term, Apple released a new version of the feature in China, limiting its scope. Now Chinese users of iPhones and other Apple devices are restricted to a 10-minute window when receiving files from people who are not listed as a contact. After 10 minutes, users can only receive files from contacts.
    Apple did not explain why the update was first introduced in China, but over the years, the tech giant has been criticised for appeasing Beijing.

    No, the release of the emails themselves is fine (though their origin is suspect and they are by and large unconfirmed). It's the analysis of the contents of the emails that has been biased.

    Well they are suppose to be impartial, it was enough that the head of the DNC has to step down. I mean easily you have be completely ignorant to think it didn't expose corruption. There is no debating this, this isn't an opinion, this is fact.
