But “nobody but people born on US soil of citizen parents” is exactly what “natural born citizen” meant at the time they wrote the Constitution.

No, it FLAT OUT ISN'T.

In the crystal-clear words of EARLY LEGAL EXPERT William Rawle, who was a member, together with GEORGE WASHINGTON, of the "Society for Political Inquiries," which met AT BENJAMIN FRANKLIN'S HOUSE:

"Therefore every person born within the United States, its territories or districts, whether the parents are citizens or aliens, is a natural born citizen in the sense of the Constitution, and entitled to all the rights and privileges appertaining to that capacity."

Birthers who claim otherwise are spitting in the face of William Rawle and the Founders and Framers that he was friends with. And it is time that real Patriots stopped tolerating this nonsense.
