Let me repeat.

My daughter has an American BC and has foreign citizenship at birth. She is legally entitled to have two passports, serve in a foreign military, and then run for president of the United States.

My daughter can stand in front of the American people and promise to send half of our assets to another country if elected while waving her foreign passport on election day, and be qualified as a natural born citizen in the USA.

This ruling certifies the US presidency as an international office. We the people can be governed by a foreign citizen, such as Obama, who have no loyalty to American interests. The only difference going forward is the next foreign citizen who runs will not have to hide dual nationality as Obama did. He can use it to his advantage, promising to lavish his home country with American aid.

So what?

If your daughter grows up here and imbibes a love for this country, she will have the chance to communicate that to voters and act upon those beliefs, if elected. What's wrong with that?

If she chooses to promise to send half of America's assets to another country, she would be a nitwit and her chance of winning the election nil. So your point is moot.

Eligible and electable are two different things. The first is an artifact of birth. The second is a question of convictions that must be successfully demonstrated to at least half the people.

I'm not frightened of your daughter, and I wish her well.
