The definition for every president from 1837 to present:

(1) American Citizen + (1) American Citizen + Birth on US Soil = NATURAL BORN CITIZEN

Barack Obama's Revisionist Definition:

(1) American Citizen + (1) Foreign Citizen + Birth on US Soil = NATURAL BORN CITIZEN

Barney Frank's "We are the World" Definition [if his 2000 Bill had been approved]:

(1) Foreign Citizen + (1) Foreign Citizen + Birth on ANY Soil = NATURAL BORN CITIZEN

“(1) American Citizen + (1) Foreign Citizen + Birth on US Soil = NATURAL BORN CITIZEN”

According to your logic, anchor babies aren’t citizens. They are. (Unfortunately).

Here are 2 disqualifiers:

Is Barack Obama Sr. a naturalized American Citizen? If he isn’t and Barack Obama Junior was born in Kenya and didn’t officially claim American citizenship at the age of 18, then Barack Obama Jr. is not an American citizen.

Did Barack Obama Junior (Barry Soetoro) lose his citizenship when he was adopted by Lolo Soetoro? If he did and didn’t claim American citizenship by the age of 18, he’s not an American citizen.

This is the definition which I feel comes closest to what the Framers intended. It is elegant in its simplicity, and comes closest to the natural truth, in my opinion.

It's my belief that we will continue down a dangerous path, unless the US SC finds for this very description of Natural Born Citizen.
