I have seen people posting that BOTH parents must be citizens, and that the candidates must be born in U.S. controlled territories or in one of the U.S. States to be considered natural born citizens.
When will they get around to Rubio; neither parent was a citizen when he was born? You talk about a clear-cut case.
The bigger question is: Is he a natural born Conservative?
We need a Declaratory Judgment action.
Of course I’m only bringing this up to help Don. I like Don. But we can’t have this question out there for the general election.
I’m still waiting for the Trump to reveal all the details he found out on Obama’s phony birth claims....
She became a U.S. citizen four years before Donald was born.
If she was a citizen when he was born, then I would think that would be sufficient. The parent does not have to be a natural born citizen, just a citizen.
Not even the same thing. Both parents were citizens. He was born in the United States. That's as natural born as can be. There is no natural born criteria for parents so it makes no diff where they were born just that they were American citizens.
This is stupid! There is no parallel with the Cruz problem!
Trump was born ON US SOIL.
Ted Cruz was born in CANADA and wasn’t a smart enough lawyer to even know he held Canadian citizenship until 2014.
If you didn't need to get naturalized to become a US citizen, you are natural born.
All of Trump's comments about Cruz are therefore silly and uninformed.
What goes around...
Why are you acting as the author of this confusion?
Trump’s mother was naturalized well before Donald was born. A website that formerly went after Obama’s lack of documentation has found a copy of her naturalization record and posted it. I saw it mentioned on Freep yesterday. If they could find it, you know full well Trump has it and is just waiting for some idiot to pull something so stupid. Hopefully Cruz is smart enough avoid the trap.
Oh and you’re not helping Cruz any. You’re just making his situation look even worse.

Trump’s mother was naturalized on March 10, 1942 as an American.
Trump was born in June, 1946.
