According to the 14th Amendment Rubio is a natural born citizen. Rubio’s parents were in the US at the permission of the US govt, therefore Rubio is nbC.
Mark Levin believes Rubio is nbC.
Beg to differ Perdogg.
An “anchor baby” i.e. Rubio, is a child born in the U.S.A. to parents who are not legal U.S. Citizens AT THE TIME OF THE CHILD’S BIRTH. (Rubio’s parents, by his own admission, did not receive benefit of naturalized citizenship until he was four years old). Under the 14th Amendment and subsequent immigration and naturalization laws, the U.S.A. grants that child “naturalized citizen” rights at birth and then that child becomes an “anchor” upon which the foreign parents can apply and usually receive naturalized citizenship as immigrant Americans.
While our immigration and naturalization laws currently offer general citizen rights to “anchor babies” like Rubio, born in the U.S. to foreign parents, the 14th Amendment has no bearing at all upon the definition of Natural Born Citizen or the Article II constitutional qualifications for the office of President and Vice President.
A citizen is either naturalized under the 14th or Natural Born to legal citizen parents, exempt from all immigration and naturalization laws and amendments. It is not possible to be both.
Sometimes, Mark is wrong, just like the Supreme Court is sometimes wrong, we have the Roberts decision to prove that.
