      Trump tells them what they want to hear and facts don't matter to them.

        Hawaii actually. How can you not know this and instead keep mouthing birtherism nonsense? It is 2015, dude.

          My bad. Unlike say, molly bloom, I am not au fait with the immigration policy of Lesotho or other select countries.

            Most countries in the Americas do (definitely Chile).

            Most countries in Europe and Asia do not.

            I think that Australia does also.

              Australia does not (since 2007). See https://www.numbersusa.com/content/l...tizenship.html for details.
              The dogmas of the quiet past, are inadequate to the stormy present. The occasion is piled high with difficulty…we will be remembered in spite of ourselves… The fiery trial through which we pass, will light us down, in honor or dishonor, to the last generation… We shall nobly save, or meanly lose, the last best hope of earth.

                It was earlier than that, and not. Automatic right at birth was removed in the 80s, but if you are born in Australia and reside for 10 years you automatically get citizenship. Not sure where 2007 comes into it.

                Edit - clarification - 10 years from birth.

                  Chile has it but it isn't listed.

                    I'm surprised you aren't a fan of his. He's right up your dumbass alley.
