“I will be asking the attorney general’s office for their input,” Secretary of State David Scanlan told the Globe. “And ultimately whatever is decided is probably going to require some judicial input.”
A debate among constitutional scholars over former president Donald Trump’s eligibility for the 2024 presidential race has reverberated through the public consciousness in recent weeks and reached the ears of New Hampshire’s top election official.
Secretary of State David Scanlan, who will oversee the first-in-the-nation presidential primary in just five months, said he’s received several letters lately that urge him to take action based on a legal theory that claims the Constitution empowers him to block Trump from the ballot.
Scanlan, a Republican, said he’s listening and will seek legal advice to ensure that his team thoroughly understands the arguments at play.
Yes. It makes sense. I am a former evangelical Christian, and yes, they are passive extremists. Passive, as in only a handful are dumb enough to take up arms, and extremists, insofar as they will allow, encourage, or justify horrors if it achieves their ends.
Do you consider all people with faith extremists? Jews and Muslims? Along with Christian’s?
That sounds like a problematic view of faith to me. A bigoted one, even
No, I consider those with fundamentalist beliefs in an exclusionary religion to be extremist. Bug off.

Dude, if you didn’t get my point indirectly from my extremely sarcastic prior comment, here it is directly: you’re putting the word “hate” into my mouth, leading me to believe that any conversation we have has a foregone conclusion. I have zero interest in engaging in the discourse as you’ve shaped it. Peace.
Welcome to the party, pal.
