Re: Grace Poe disqualification report. Additions to original post where basically reversed by Shhhhwwww!! Requested discussion on his/her talk page. No response.


 * Here are my thoughts.


 * "Why is she disqualified" is not extraneous, it's basic. The text of the actual decision apparently hasn't been seen except by "a highly reliable source" who said "the rulings of the en banc are 'nuanced.' News reports based on that, not "best evidence."


 * Poe has one more avenue to seek redress, the SC, which can't be done until the decision is actually released, à la "it ain't over until the paperwork is done."


 * The "world" has no idea what's been going on. Don't know about either of Poe's appeals nor what's been in previous news reports. In the US, the natural born citizen issue has impacted two recent presidential candidates, Barrack Obama & Ted Cruz, so at least here (me-Columbia Md.) it's relevant.


 * Should know more about the Philippines and other nations in East Asia. You do, I'll continue learning. RaqiwasSushi (talk) 19:41, 22 December 2015 (UTC)
