She's naturalized. She can be president.
No. Naturalized citizens cannot be president.
She's naturalized. She can be president.
... and the first female president! A lot of records.51. Stephanie Murphy / Chelsea Clinton (Democratic-Progressive) 2051-2053
Murphy was an elder stateswoman, taking the presidency at 73 years of age, making her the oldest president in American History. She was also the first Asian-American President.
Maybe the constitution has been changed until then?No. Naturalized citizens cannot be president.
Allow me to state the constitution, on this specific topic. "Any naturalized citizen having been a citizen of the United States for at least 14 years is eligible to run for any political office, including the presidency".No. Naturalized citizens cannot be president.
oh yup i forgot that... and the first female president! A lot of records.
I don't know where you got that. That sentence does not exist in the Constitution.Allow me to state the constitution, on this specific topic. "Any naturalized citizen having been a citizen of the United States for at least 14 years is eligible to run for any political office, including the presidency".
No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.
Well, I did get mistaken on that quote from the constitution, but when it says "citizen" that means a naturalized citizen, who has lived in the US for at least 14 years. Murphy easily qualifies, as she has lived in the US since the 80s, so at that time in 2051, she will have been in America as a citizen for about 70 years.I don't know where you got that. That sentence does not exist in the Constitution.
Article II Section 1 Clause 5:
That is not what it means. It specifies "natural born", and there has been a lot of debate on this matter. The consensus is that the phrase refers to people born on U.S. soil or overseas to American citizen parents (Ted Cruz, for example). Murphy does not fall into either category.Well, I did get mistaken on that quote from the constitution, but when it says "citizen" that means a naturalized citizen, who has lived in the US for at least 14 years.

hmm. I guess thats right. Ill change the list now.That is not what it means. It specifies "natural born", and there has been a lot of debate on this matter.

(1): Kennedy survives and defeat Goldwater in 1964, in 1966 the Civil Rights Act fails provoking widespread riots, which weakens JFK popularity to the point that after the death of Martin Luther King the DNC convention in Chicago is stormed by Black Panthers terrorists who kills Mayor Daley leading to George Wallace getting the nomination.
(2): To quell the riots, Wallace repeals the Posse Comitatus Act and reintroduces mandatory military service, and imposes martial law on Illinois, deporting many black people to Arizona and New Mexico, in the summer of 1970 after suffering many setbacks in South Vietnam Wallace orders Hanoi to be nuked, and as a result North Vietnam slowly crumbles leading to the reunification of Vietnam in 1974, while Wallace is killed by Arthur Bremer in 1972 during the campaign trail, leading to a brief presidency of Curtis LeMay.
(3): Humphrey defeats LeMay in 1972, the main achievement of his presidency is the Great Society programs, but even though they are really successful, his popularity falters following an expansion of the Soviet influence in Asia and Latin America, and thus is defeated by Ronald Reagan in 1976.

Short answer: I tried my best at a dystopia list. For some odd reason I can never make everything as cripplingly bleak as I know is possible. It always has to end well or at least be redeemable. In this one the uber-left Alternative prompts the Alt-Right to take over the Republicans once and for all, then a civil war breaks out when misinformation reaches its peak. The Leftist Faction, recognised as true by the international community, fights the right faction, comprised of white supremacist and anti-federal separatist movements. After a load of explosions and gun battles, and both sides verging into different garden varieties of totalitarianism, the New Reconstruction Amendments are ratified, effectively reassembling the United States.Background?
