“OK. Now let’s give YOUR dumb ass a quick little IQ test. Did you ever stop to consider that amongst the “Foreigners” that Jay was referring to were the PARENTS AND THEIR ASSOCIATES. And that the reasoning was to minimize the possibility of alien ideas transmitted thru their children by ensuring that the PARENTS were vetted by US citizenship???”

Nope, I sure didn’t, and I’ll tell you why: Because I can read and comprehend what I am reading. John Jay was talking about foreigners “IN” the government. Parents of presidents aren’t “IN” the national government.
John Jay wrote:
“Permit me to hint, whether it would be wise and reasonable to provide a strong check to the admission of Foreigners into the administration of our national Government; and to declare expressly that the Commander in Chief of the American army shall not be given to nor devolve on, any but a natural born Citizen.”
Your interpretation, and thus your conclusion, are both based on your inability to read English and understand it. See the phrase above “into the administration of our national Government;” Do you? Do parents of presidents have any role in national government????
Think, man!
Permit me to hint, whether it would be wise and reasonable to provide a strong check to the admission of Foreigners into the administration of our national Government; and to declare expressly that the Commander in Chief of the American army shall not be given to nor devolve on, any but a natural born Citizen.
Nothing in that statement/suggestion/comment from a man who would sit on the SCOTUS even addresses parents except in the context of natural born, the ones that would be admitted into the administration of our national government, not the parents. Thus Jay established the contrast between foreigners and those natural born. Thing is, you know that yet are bound by your obamanoid kneed pad servitude to try and spin the obvious into something obscure. You Obama defenders are real devious, but apparently not so smart little nettles.
Oh yeah. The parents would have whatever influence that POTUS allows them to. You have forgotten how the MSM insured that the general voting public would know as little about him as possible. I’m pretty sure that I know what the founders meant. They surely didn’t intend for a Marxist usurper with an admitted multiplicity of citizenships at birth to be POTUS. I am abso-bloody-lutely positive of that!!!!
