"What does the S stand for in Ulys.'s name? in mine you know it does not stand for anything!" -- U.S. Grant to Julia Grant, March 31, 1853
"In answer to your letter of a few days ago asking what 'S' stands for in my name I can only state *nothing* [italicized]. It was a mistake made by Senator Morris of Ohio when application was first made for my appointment as Cadet to West Point. …I tried on entering West Point to correct this mistake but failing, after I received my Diploma and Commission, with the 'S' inserted, adopted it and have so signed my name ever since." -- U.S. Grant to Elihu Washburne, June 23, 1864
Actually, I believe that the term is "derivative" citizenship. (Having derived citizenship from one's parent(s) being naturally born American citizens. In the case of Bush, I believe that it was his grandfather (George H. W. Bush's father) who has born in Mexico
and in the case of John McCain, the Panama Canal Zone was American territory at time wasn't it? - And now, to Barack Obama;
He was born in Hawaii in either 1961 or 1962. Hawaii became the
50th STATE in 1959, at least two years BEFORE HE WAS BORN.
Hawaii became an organized incorporated territory on August 12, 1898, meaning that the Constitution applied there and anyone born on that land was a natural-born U.S citizen. So even if Obama had been born before August of 1959 (which he wasn't, he was born in 1961), then he still would have been a natural born citizen. Not to mention the fact that his mother was born in Kansas, and so being her son also made him a citizen at birth. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Territory_of_Hawaii
It's a little complicated. In the United States' first election only 6 of 10 states had anything like a popular vote and fewer than 2% of the population in those states participated. Washington is said to have won 100% of the popular vote in Virginia but just above 90% overall. I can see why this wouldn't count. But then, Jefferson won 73% of the popular vote in 1804 (to Johnson's 61.1%), Madison won 65% in 1808, Monroe got 68% in 1816... so I'm not sure where this stat comes from maybe it ought to say the biggest margin in a "modern" election?
Actually, Monroe got an even higher percentage (80.6%) in 1820. The Federalists (the opposition party) were so weak that they didn't even appoint a candidate, so Monroe ran basically unopposed.
Presumably an election where the people went and "voted" for President even though legally only 538 people in the United States are allowed to vote for President.
Also interesting to note that Johnson won the biggest popular percentage margin and 4 years later announced he would not run because he knew he probably would be voted out. The '60s changed everything during his presidency.
Trump has an affinity for McDonald's, too. Although if you're going to use past tense, i.e., "had", then we'll have to wait unitl he's out of office (insert joke here) for that to be an acceptable answer.
