Historical Breakthrough-Proof: Chester Arthur Concealed He Was A British Subject At Birth (Donofrio)

Natural Born Citizen ^ | 12-6-08 | Leo Donofrio

"Because Chester Arthur covered up his British citizenship, any precedent he might have set that the country has had a President born of an alien father is nullified completely as Chester Arthur was a usurper to the Presidency. He wouldn’t have been on the ticket if it was public knowledge. Nobody knew Arthur was a British subject because nobody looked in the right place for the truth.

And it’s no precedent to follow."

It’s been definitively established that Chester Arthur was born in Vermont.

So then he was an American citizen......or am I missing something here?

You must read the entire article.

keep this thread. more info posted, less need for link.

not sure what the point is, either way....however.

Chester Arthur’s lies came during his Vice Presidential campaign in 1880. His fraudulent attempt to obfuscate family history provides context and evidence that in 1880 it was recognized that having been born as a British citizen would make one ineligible to be President or VP. His falsification of family history indicates he was aware of POTUS ineligibility.

This is key.

I don’t really get his point....or else I’m too consumed with the Mavericks/Atlanta game to care.

If you are born in the U.S., are you not a natural citizen?

[Non-Sequitur]

That means Chester Arthur was a British subject at the time of his birth.

Only if you sign on with Donofrio's theory.

[STARWISE]

True.

[Badabing Badablonde]

That’s usually the way it works down around Brownsville and McAllen.

[Badabing Badablonde]

Bingo.

[fightinJAG]

Yes, you are missing something.

Allen’s birthplace made him an American AT birth, but he was not a citizen BY birth because his father was a British subject.

IOW, Allen was an American citizen, but he was not a natural born citizen and, therefore, was ineligible to be president.

[nobama08]

I’m serious. If you are born in the US, are you automatically a natural-born citizen, regardless of the status of your parents?

[txhurl]

Right as rain.

[fightinJAG]

Birthplace determines citizenship by operation of law.

Parents’ citizenship determines citizenship by operation of nature.

A natural born citizen attained his American citizenship by descent from his parents (or, possibly, just his father).

That’s the argument.

This would ensure that the presidency was limited to those who were at least second-generation Americans.

If you are born in the U.S., are you not a natural citizen?

According to the United States Constitution, yes.

According to Leo Donofrio, former attorney, amateur professional card-player, and plaintiff in the soon-to-be unceremoniously dismissed Donofrio v. Wells, maybe.
