We don’t like to get too political around these parts, at least not unless it guarantees a lot of page views, but sometimes it’s necessary to stand up for one’s beliefs. Thankfully, because Jose Canseco was born in Havana, Cuba, he can’t become President of the United States. Even if that rule didn’t exist, this wonderful public service announcement probably wouldn’t be necessary. That doesn’t make it any less hilarious.
No Way Jose

That was not hilarious at all.
I laughed but only because its funny.
That’s a terrible reason. About as shameful as bringing your glove to the ballpark.
I prefer to take a bat but others seem to question that decision.
FYI: As an American born outside the United States, let me point out that the the Constitution is very unclear as to what “natural born citizen” means, probably purposely. While Canseco wouldn’t fulfill any of the definitions because he was presumably born to Cuban parents, there is reason to believe that a foreign-born American could become President.
