The last line of the Twelfth Amendment: "But no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States. " https://www.law.cornell.edu/constitution/amendmentxii A person who has twice been elected President becomes...

To be Vice President you have to meet the qualifications required to be President; one of those is the term limit. So no, someone twice elected to the Presidency cannot be Vice President in the future.

Being honest though, do you really think that as a matter of law they should have standing? Personally, I take issue with the idea of the House or Senate (as individual bodies) having standing in most lawsuits; but that tends to be a lost cause. Congress is one branch made up of two component...

I just find it depressing. Fucking idiots, both parties have taken the low road so often (usually by digging out the ground so as to go lower) that simply not doing so once is enough to help them significantly; and yet they keep digging.

Haha, that's great.

That his policy ideas suck and don't stand up to analysis has nothing to do with sanity or insanity. Tim Poole is someone that you can sit down with and have a rational, reasoned, conversation with about a topic. You and he might be operating from different foundational values and you and he...

Tim Poole is not even close to being a libertarian. He's a sane progressive.

Straight "national" polls should (but rarely do) have a sample population that actually aligns with the nation. Ideally what you want is a representative sample from each state (or at least geographic region) of sufficient sample size to accurately represent every demographic grouping that you...

The only reading material allowed on the floor is that related to the case. So you really want something that at least mentions Ukraine, Impeachment, the Senate, etc.

The same answer to essentially all questions; whatever 51 Senators (or 50 plus the Chief Justice) decide to allow. If Rand Paul actually sticks to his guns then you may well see one or both Bidens, Schiff, and the whistleblower called. Because once put to a vote after allowing the Dem's to call...

They aren't happy that the FBI lied to them in the Carter Page warrant application; very not happy. They have started a review of every other submission that the lawyer who lied to them worked on and have indicated that they are going to be looking at all FBI requests more stringently. You are...

No, you don't. Twitter is not the government, they have zero legal obligation to protect or promote freedom of speech. They can be as discriminatory as they want in regards to politics. The real issue is with Section 230 and letting companies be both platforms and publishers. All online...

When you are charging people for solely political reasons, and those people are your political opposition, you start down a very slippery slope even if those individuals are actually guilty of crimes. Hell, if I could rewrite the US constitution then I would explicitly make members of Congress...

That's not really true. The Democrats have compromised in the Republicans favor plenty of times over the years. And charging your opposition, for political reasons, with crimes is how you turn the US into a failed state.

No, although someone will probably attempt to charge him with some crime related to his time as President. The only punishment that a Senate conviction in an Impeachment trial can result in is stripping the impeached individual of their office before their lawful term in said office has been...

Ted Cruz was on it, that inherently means that the ground was tainted to the point of corruption. He was just lucky enough that the tech companies were even moral immoral and so by comparison he looked good. ;) Seriously, the only person (with an at least semi realistic chance of winning the...

Cruz is a snake. As Lindsey Graham joked: "If you killed Ted Cruz on the floor of the Senate, and the trial was in the Senate, nobody would convict you.” The reason that it is funny is that it is about half true. Cruz's best chance was against Trump, but against anyone more "normal" than that...
