I'm thinking whichever that it's a random screw-up rather than deliberate tampering, because CA and NY? Not really swing states.

Our wings are not tired.
It depends on whether or not they were there as part of the diplomatic corps, etc. If they were there of their own volition, you can't be president.
For reals? That sucks!

My parents cost me the presidency??!!? Just like them. Own volition in the sense that DuPont sent my father there. Though there is a faction of the family that thinks he was actually a secret govt. operative (they're very imaginative). But I guess that, being secret, wouldn't count.

For reals? That sucks!

It hasn't been litigated, yet, so you can still hope. But the theory is that you're not a natural-born citizen, but a statutory citizen.

Does anyone else have this problem where the puppies are sleeping and you navigate away to another tab, and forget that they're there, and then when they wake up and start rasslin' your computer is suddenly making all kinds of little squeaks and barks?

I don't think of this as a problem, but as a reminder that the puppies need me to check on them.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
