Should clarify, that JUST being born in the United States does not make anyone a ‘Native’ citizen automatically.
OMG.... you’ve done it. You’ve proved that Barack Obama is not a Native American!!!!
He damn well better not apply for a Casino License!!!
Does this mean he could never become President?
Nice try but still meaningless
The constitution DOES NOT SAY:
"Anyone born in the Unites Sates is a citizen"
It says:
"Anyone born in the Unites Sates, AND under the laws and jurisdictions of, is a citizen"
I may not have the exact words- but you can see there is a MAJOR difference between those 2 sentences.
I think that all these illegal aliens with so-called 'anchor babies' (a child born in the US to an ILLEGAL alien) are NOT citizens
lets all put some funds up and get the ball rolling
Ping!
This is counterproductive - and, if you have to fall back on a technicality like this, kind of pathetic. Even if this is an accurate reading of the law, the average American (myself included) has a deep aversion to judging people on their parental/familial backgrounds. People also dislike technicalities. Saying Obama is unqualified to be president because his FATHER may have been a British subject? Not gonna fly, even if true.
I have other problems with the Birthers. Do you really think Obama was born in Kenya? Fine - do the leg work, find the evidence, and show us. Until then, quit yapping. You sound crazy and you make the rest of us look crazy. And make no mistake, the media will play up the “crazy” angle to the best of its ability.
Appearances matter. To openminded folks who might consider voting GOP in the next election, you look like conspiracist maniacs who are still stuck on losing the election and care more about that than the real issues of the day, of which there are many. Who wants to jump on a bandwagon like that?
So at what point in history are Indians not native born?
Good lord.
I can point you to at least one Supreme Court decision that says you’re wrong.

Start on page 666: Statement of Mr Louis Schade
Tell me if you come to the same conclusion that the ‘natives’ were those of US citizens either from the time of the revolution or from the naturalization of the ‘grandparents’, who naturalized thus making the grandchild's parents citizens at the time of the grandparents naturalization.
They way I see it, according to this census hearing, children of foreigners residing in the US were also classified as foreigners.
OOPS! I guess a link would help wouldn’t it.
I'm so sick of this crap. NO OTHER COUNTRY'S LAWS CAN DETERMINE OUR OWN. If, say, Chavez or Castro made a law granting Cuban/Venezuelan citizenship to all Americans at birth, would that make all of them ineligible to be President?
Stupid is as stupid does. No wonder people make fun of this crap.
You are subject to the jurisdiction if you to have pay your parking tickets. Foreign diplomats in the US are not subject to its jurisdiction. They get to laugh at parking tickets.

But their kids born here are not US citizens, unlike just about anyone else born here, including Zero, alas.
