Donald Trump is an idiot or a horrible person, and either way should never be President

Donald Trump has a lot of money. That is really the sum total of his qualifications to be president. Actually, he seems to be intent on proving just how unqualified he is before he spends any of his money. He's doing a great job of that, or at least as good a job as everyone else who wants to represent the Republican Party in the next election. Trump thinks its strange that people haven't come forward with stories about Obama as a toddler in Hawaii, and thus he has doubt about whether Obama was really born in America. I can't tell you how depressed I am that this is still an issue. The man was clearly born in America. If he wasn't, I'm pretty sure we would have some real proof by now. He is the President after all. The president who has produced documentation proving he was born in Hawaii. What this says about the state of race relations is utterly nauseating ... don't bother even pretending to argue that this would be going on if Obama wasn't black. What this says about the caliber of people leading our country is equally depressing. Trump, and every other prominent Republican that refuses to simply come out and say that this is nonsense, is doing us all a disservice to further their own political ambitions, or is an idiot, and on either account should be forced to give up any elected office they now hold and be barred from running for one. I don't mean that they should be legally forced into retirement; I mean that we the People should force them into retirement. It is time to put an end to this nonsense. If you want to be President, try to do it by telling us what you are going to do differently concerning the economy, or foreign relations. Give us details, don't just spit out platitudes and slogans, or talk about budget cuts and small government. Give us some credit and give us some details. While you're at it, drop the insults and playground behavior. And, stop worrying about where the President was born. Hawaii really is in the United States.
