I searched Article 2 Section 1 very carefully, word for word but I didn’t find “unless both parents were as well born in the United States.” Where exactly is that? Please enlighten me.

Your sign on date is 2008 issue. You’ve been here, apparently, ong enough to have seen the lengthy discussions on the wording and the meaning of Natural Born Citizen, so we know you are not really seeking to be enlighhtened, you just want to agitate, like little barry bastard community organizer commie. Your kneepads give you away, drone.

You’re looking in the wrong place for a definitive answer to your question. The US Constitution is not written as some kind of law with attached descriptions of phrases.

Quit being lazy and look up Vattel, Law of Nations, 1758. Then search for the accepted description of what a natural born citizen actually is.

You must be new. We’ve been over this a million times

Start paying attention.

Both parents have to be citizens of the USA.

Daddy Obama was NOT.
He was a student here on a Fulbright (?) scholarship, and was a citizen of Kenya, which in 1961 was still a colony of Britain. Therefore, Daddy was technically a British citizen.

First; it’s both parents have to be citizens at the time of the birth. not both parents born in the US.

Second; the phrase “natural born” as used at that time was clearly understood by all to mean “ born on US soil of parents who are US citizens”.

Third; there was no ambiguity then (during the writing of the constitution) and the interjected ambiguity now is an attempt to hide treason and the fact that we have no current president.

He's saying the term Natural Born Citizen means: a person who is born of two parents who are themselves citizens (of any type, ex naturalized).
