It is what it is. Given my father laid on a hillside in the Korean war, shooting artillery shells, and was with the group that returned the colors in a New York City parade, cheating me never entered my mind. I was raised to know that I was blessed beyond my ability to imagine, to be an American citizen. All it meant to me was that I was not eligible to hold the office of president.

Seems to me the ‘natural born’ citizens of the United States would have more loyalty to their birthright. But hey, there is that story of Esau, who sold his birthright for a ‘red’ bowl of pottage. (lentils) Then God made sure he lost his blessing as well. Seems too many are willing to sell their birthright to some charismatic preacher type.

So having been born in Germany while your US born citizen and patriot father was serving our country makes you a less loyal citizen?
