Well, this is a bit surprising.

Largemouth bass are the most popular fishing target for anglers here in America. They're found in every state except Alaska and pretty much every kid grew up spending at least one day running hooks through nightcrawlers and bobber fishing a pond for them.

A recent study is causing anglers and wildlife officials some confusion. Yale University conducted a study that determined a genetic difference between largemouth bass and what is now being called "Florida bass". In response to this study, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) has declared bass found in Florida's waterways "Florida bass". The American Fisheries Society has agreed to the distinction between the species.

Controversy over Newly Identified 'Florida Bass' Species

Vice President Kamala Harris was born in 1964 in Oakland, California. The 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution says that people born in the United States are citizens. Only natural-born citizens are eligible to be president, Article II of the Constitution says. Harris, born in the U.S., meets that standard, legal experts said.
