Gee. Not like when all those ‘wacko birds’ were trying to get Obama’s records and eligibility sorted out, is it?

“The NBC Clause of Article II must be tested.”

Would you demand that “shall not be infringed” be tested?

I agree. But the test must be conducted through the lens of original intent. In other words, what were the meanings of the words and phrases used at the time Article II was written. I don’t know where you’d come up with a truly unbiased group of people to look at it. Certainly not our current Supreme Court.

If you are born a citizen, you are natural born.
