“My assumption and my understanding is that if you are born of American parents, you are naturally a natural-born American citizen,” Chertoff replied.
“That is mine, too,” said Leahy

Now, remind everyone here...wasn’t Obama’s daddy a foreigner? Doesn’t that make him NOT have American parents. Note the plural.
You didn’t have to look again, nor is it likely that you did. The phrase ‘natural born citizen’ is a special phrase in that section of the Constitution, and must be interpreted as a special more exclusionary requirement than simple citizenship.
As you read it, as I understand, it loses all special meaning.
You don’t know history. Did you know that Isreal is the ONLY country on earth where the child’s status is determined by the mother’s nationality? It is. Every other country in the world, the child’s citizenship or status is determined by the Father’s nationality. In this case, that is British/Kenyan. And let’s not forget that Barack Obama SR. was an avowed Communist. Something that this President CLEARLY wanted to go back to. Since he changed his name from Barry to Barack. It’s so very obvious where the freak is coming from. Defend him if you will but take the consequences also. He has no more use for you than a gnat.!! CO
