“reasonable assertion that there is no proof that Barack Obama is a naturalized U.S. citizen, as I believe the Constitution requires.”
A NATURALIZED citizen does not qualify for POTUS.
One has to be NATIVE BORN.
Naturalized is for foreigners who become citizens.
thanks — both correct, I should have said “natural born citizen”
a little too late for me to be up
The Constitution says “natural born citizen” - not “native born citizen”. They might be the same thing, or they might not.
No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty-five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.
