Natural law as seen and expounded upon by Vattel would qualify McCain as he would be “deemed” to be born in country because his father was overseas serving his nation not “quitting” it.
Natural law as seen and written by England would qualify McCain as he was the child of a citizen father.
Natural law as seen and written by America would qualify McCain as he was a natural born citizen not a naturalized citizen.
So....What principle of natural law as defined WHERE and by WHO requires that a child be born of citizen parents AND in country to be “natural born”?
Where do you get in U. S. law that McCain is a natural born citizen?
Where in U.S. law?
1401 - The following shall be nationals and citizens of the United States at birth
You say 1401 applies and it couldn't. 1401 wasn't written until 1952. He was born in '36. (I can play the "gotcha game" too)
What principle of natural law as defined WHERE and by WHO requires that a child be born of citizen parents AND in country to be “natural born”?
It's many places and by many people. Do you really want a thorough listing? It could take some time.
You want me to answer Vattel as if you'll "get me" in a contradiction, but Vattel wasn't the only one to write about natural law, he is simply considered the most concise and definitive and that's why he's so often quoted.
