From what I am seeing, Kevin strikes me a lot like Trump.....pragmatic businessman who has a clear understanding of issues, cause and effect, etc. Still, he's not American and thus should have ZERO role in our government.
But Obama...

I think I would buy an argument that if you're born on an American base overseas, that makes you born on American soil. As to his Kenyan citizenship, it wasn't clear to me that he had renounced it, ever, and then there was the question of whether Mr. Soetoro had legally adopted Barry. Did he have citizenship from Indonesia? If so, did he renounce that?

That commie rolled in on a cloud of suspicion, and his anti-colonial, anti-American policies and actions just proved people's suspicions to be true.

Pretty certain Kevin would give up his canadian citizenship to take a role in government.

Appears he also has Irish and UAE citizenship.

Cuban can be entertaining but he is a colossal douche.

My point was that I'm more than just a musclehead.

I have a Bachelor of Commerce and an MBA from the University of Toronto and I am a Professional Accountant (CPA/CMA).

I've been a senior Finance professional for over 20 years.

He's probably got me on the bank account thing though.

Robert is the only one I could tolerate on the show. Lore/Laurie (whatever) is way to full of her QVC craptasm, Mark Cuban is a full on long range douche rocket. The guest investors (Frankel the scarecrow, Ashton Kutcher, Richard Branson) are all hacks.
