and have paid taxes.
Lot's of people in the US don't pay taxes. Should some lifelong welfare recipient be barred from election? Well, maybe, but that's not what they want to know. They want to know Trumps tax returns.
The tax returns in question are all approved and accepted by the Federal government. Whatever great reductions someone may have taken advantage of would be an indicator of the law and not the candidate.
The US Constitution sets requirements for presidential election. A state adding to those requirements could infringe upon the rights of the other states.
Really?
Article II, Section 1:
"No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States."
Pretty goood idea to check candidates are above board and have paid taxes. The slippery slope argument is bogus.
Judicial watch don't elaborate on why "it may not be constitutional".
