Expect to see more of this in the months ahead.
“Harris is the daughter of immigrants. Her father (from Jamaica) and her mother (from India) were not citizens at the time of her birth in 1964.”
not eligible ... except to the J Roberts who PROVED he
cannot read AND has sold out to the DS long ago.
Playing the race card.
That convinces me.
Nevermind that kamala’s parents were not citizens
Whaddya expect? Dems are trying to foist off another Halfrican into the Presidency... Say anything, they say!
Both parents must be U.S. citizens at the time of your birth.
End of story.
Concepts like inherited nationality are difficult for people like Karen.
Actually, Newsweek is fast recovering their reputation lately. I have been pleasantly surprised by some of their most recent articles.
Too bad they backed down to the woke crowd on this one.
>>A non-White American citizen born right here in the United States
To non-citizen parents from 2 different countries with subsequent residency in Canada.
Just how many national citizenships does she have?
And I, for one, have missed them.
WashPoo points out she is non-white.
She is also non-African-American.
In every country on Earth a child born to two non-citizens is not a citizen, natural-born or otherwise. If my parents were vacationing in France the day I was born I would still be a U.S. citizen, and ineligible to be president.
Since everyone who was a citizen at the time of adoption is dead we can remove the grandfather clause wording. We are left with “No Person except a natural born Citizen [...] shall be eligible to the Office of President;”
Why does the Constitution speak of “citizens” and separately of “natural born citizens”? Why is the word “natural” inserted? It is a matter of allegiance.
A person can be a “citizen” if they were citizens or subjects in some other country first but have come here and met the naturalization requirements. Also, if one is the offspring of a citizen and a non-citizen, then one is a US citizen. However, in both these cases it can be argued that the person might choose allegiance to their former country or to the country of the foreign- born parent or at least the allegiance might be considered divided. That is, there is no natural allegiance of the offspring to one or the other parent’s country. It is this divided or alienated allegiance that the Constitutional provision is designed to prohibit.
If, however, both of one’s parents are themselves US citizens at the time of one's birth, then one is a “citizen” as well as a “natural born citizen”. The “natural born citizen” is one who at birth has no natural allegiance to any other country and the Framers felt could be trusted to be loyal to the US and not act as a foreign agent. In short, a natural born citizen is one who cannot be argued to be anything but; there is no possible argument that he might be a citizen elsewhere. [footnote: Also, in their time, the rules of royal succession held sway throughout much of the world and the Founders wished to forstall any potential claims by the crowned heads of Europe or their scions to sovereignty in the US.]
Note that native born is not the same as natural born. Native born simply refers to the place of one’s birth, i.e., of one’s nativity. The term does not speak to the legal circumstances of a birth, merely to its location.
Yep the Dems are back with their same old garbage ,LOL
This is the Democrats main campaign topic. That we’re crazy racist fools.
They’re obsessed with fringes that oppose them.
The majority of social media Democrat/Liberal/Leftist is about what rubes non-Democrats are.
That’s essentially their campaign platform.
They like to feel superior.
See how much good this did last time it came up right?
If the author weren’t so clueless, she would have noted that the “birthers” were very active in 2016 concerned Ted Cruz’ eligibility.
We just don’t want to be 0-2.
No, what is back is the ineligibility of democrat presidential candidates.
The same rule applies to Ted Cruz, Bobby Jindal and Marco Rubio.
I Posted the day Kametoe was selected that anyone who dares to question her Eligibility would be labeled a Birther, which has some negative connotation for reasons I cannot explain.

It’s time to get SCOTUS to make a definitive ruling on this.
