Per source, c, host of the Young Turks will announce a Democratic primary bid against Joe Biden tonight. One major obstacle to Uygur's longshot presidential bid is that he is a naturalized citizen and thus ineligible under Article II, Section 1 of the Constitution.

A major annoucement on @TheYoungTurks tonight at 7PM ET. It is about the presidential race. http://tyt.com/live

1. Anything to hurt Biden and help repugs, cause that's all it amounts to.

[Celerity]

2. He is not eligible. He was born in Turkey, as stated in the OP.

4. +++

23. Is he trying to raise money

or notoriety?

This is dumb.

[Celerity]

24. Cenk is an attention whore IMHO

[Dorian Gray]

25. I hope this announcement

gets all the attention it deserves.

[viva la]

3. Also no one can pronounce his name.

And he's a major a-hole.

[JohnSJ]

5. You just did, a-hole which is another name for Uygur

13. I had to read that three times.

And then I laughed.

[JohnSJ]

19. Sorry it may have not made it clear. I meant Uygur's is synonymous with a-hole, if it wasn't

clear

[Happy Hoosier]

21. Like I said... took me a bit..

… but that made it all the more funny when I saw it.

[JohnSJ]

22. Thank-you. After you pointed it out, I thought I needed to make it very clear what I meant.

[Celerity]

8. its actually pretty easy.... Jenk Wee-gur, but yes, he is a major bellend

[Elessar Zappa]

6. Well, it's a non-starter because he's ineligible.

[brush]

17. Didn't Cruz run at one time? He was born in Canada.

[Elessar Zappa]

20. He had a mother that was a US citizen.

[tritsofme]

7. It's a silly stunt, who cares?

[hlthe2b]

9. Pass barf bag. He's a naturalized citizen,having been born Istanbul to Turkish parents. INELIGIBLE

But, will this be pointed out by our breathless, often clueless MSM?

We need another arrogant a'hole to run (and in this case a horrible misogynist, former bullying machismo-driven conservative twerp and a Turkish immigrant who denies the Armenian genocide?)

Ummm, no. But will someone kindly point out to him that he is ineligible unless his entire bio is wrong?

10. Jesus

Don’t allow him on ballots

[SWBTATTReg]

11. Awful proud of himself. I daresay he won't go far.

[redqueen]

12. .

[crickets]

27. Exactly! nt

[LiberalFighter]

14. I avoid watching anything by him.

[madinmaryland]

15. Who? Sounds like an a-hole as referenced by a couple of other posts in this thread.

[Hekate]

16. Very amusing, Mr Uygur, but I'm not laughing

[AntivaxHunters]

18. He & his anti-trans TERF girlfriend Ana can take a hike

[kwolf68]

26. Ridiculous

I am generally for full Democratic participation, but this is no time for fucking around, period. So lets say this guy and Bobby J take JUST ENOUGH votes to push 2 or 3 battlegrounds to the Orange Anus, then what have you accomplished boys? Tell me? Oh, maybe the pure end of American Democracy. trump is the most dangerous person in the history of this nation to get levers of power, we should do EVERYTHING we can to prevent this guy from ever getting back to 1600 PA Avenue.

But thanks for playing Bobby and Cenk. When our nation becomes a fascist authoritarian state maybe we can send you some free tee-shirts.

28. Fun fact: He's constitutionally ineligible to be President since he was born in Turkey.
