Greg DeCowsky : what ever happened to a requirement that a candidate be loyal to our country and patriotic ; upholding the flag and all it stands for? Is that only for high school marching bands?

LOL. Better ask the Extreme Court and Cheap Just-Us Roberts.
My HS marching band was hired to play a Nixon rally in 1968. That did not go well for Nixon. We horn players put peace signs on the bells of our horns with masking tape while the entire drum line played a rousing cadence for chants of “Peace now!”
After that they made us stick to football games.
BtW that was the year I almost got suspended for refusing to say the Pledge of Allegiance.

That was the year of the violent Democrat convention in Chicago, I think. Intense times.
Democratic Convention, not "Democrat". And violence was instigated by mayor Daly and the police.
I knew that. Daly was a corrupt tyrant.
Yes Daly had a 'machine'. Terrible!
There was never any such requirement--how would you enforce it? And traditionally that sort of language has been used by the right wing.
