Wait. "When his parents came here 45 years ago they told him he could be whatever he wanted to be"...
They gave birth to him here, left, then came back 45 years ago and told him?
They came here 45 years ago, had him, and told him between 45 years ago and now?
He was born on a base outside the US but technically US soil?
Or he's not a natural born citizen?
I mean, I don't care where he was born really, just can't be president of he wasn't born here, and the only wording that makes sense from that is that they immigrated here with him already born elsewhere.
Edit: but I do feel sorry for him for some reason. Looks sad.
