I just dont think there is “any there, there”
If we cant hang this guy on his communist and anti constitutional ties, what are the odds we will get him on a “technicality’?
What is so difficult to understand about this matter? Obama Sr. was a British subject from Kenya and therefore Obama Jr. can never be a ‘natural born US citizen’ since the Constitution requires BOTH PARENTS TO BE U.S. CITIZENS.
The special term “Natural Born Citizen” is used in particular as a requirement for eligibility to serve as President or Vice President of the United States. Section 1 of Article Two of the United States Constitution contains the clause:
“ No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States. ”
It is generally agreed that these constitutional provisions mean anyone born on American soil TO PARENTS WHO ARE U.S. CITIZENS is a “natural born citizen” eligible to someday become president or vice-president, whereas anyone whose citizenship is acquired after birth as a result of naturalization “process or procedure” is not a “natural born citizen” and is therefore ineligible for those two positions. In between these extremes lie gray areas, some controversy, and various settled precedents.
