So Louisana isn’t part of the US anymore??

Scroll up a ways. The claim is made that to be a Natural Born Citizen you must: (1) be born in the U.S. mainland, and (2) be born to 2 American citizen parents. Neither of Jindal's parents were citizens when he was born.

I read that. That’s what the debate is about. I guess I should have included the /SARC tag. But based on the way my previous posts were going I would have thought it obvious.

What actually constitutes a ‘natural born citizen’. Based on which of the 3 scenarios I posted above you chose, a number of past presidential candidates are not ‘natural born’, including John McCain!

A little research online shows court rulings coming down on all 3 sides.

Again, if you go by what you posted above in this post, John McCain was not ‘natural born’.
