so youre saying that an illegal alien of illegal alien parents can be president of the United states just because his mother managed to be rolled over the border by her relatives moments before she gave birth on the US side and under the helpless noses of the local sheriff and his deputies ???

where’s the “subject to the jurisdiction thereof” ???

“(4) No person except a natural born citizen, (or a citizen of the United States at the time of the adoption of this Constitution,) shall be eligible to the office of the United States ...

Article II, The Constitution of the United States

“Section 1. All person born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state in which they reside.”

“Section 5. The Congress shall have the power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article”

Article XIV, The Constitution of the United States (Amendment adopted 1868)

so just when did Congress act to include persons born outside the United States 250 years AFTER the Constitution was adopted ???

of parents who were not themselves and caused the child to not be under the jurisdiction thereof of the United States a the time of the birth ???

a child lawfully not a natural born citizen ???

The Naturalization Act of 1790, passed by the First Congress and signed into law by President Washington: “the children of citizens of the United States that may be born beyond Sea, or out of the limits of the United States, shall be considered as natural born Citizens: provided, That the right of citizenship shall not descend to persons whose fathers have never been resident in the United States”.

The reason we can deport illegals is because they are “subject to the jurisdiction of” our immigration laws. Anyone on U.S. soil is subject to the jurisdiction of U.S. law unless they have diplomatic immunity or are a member of a foreign invading military on U.S. soil.
