(Apr. 1, 2024) — Last Tuesday, Independent 2024 presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. declared he had chosen attorney and philanthropist Nicole Shanahan, 38, as his vice-presidential running-mate.
Both are former Democrats, with Kennedy in October changing his party affiliation to “Independent” in what he said was a “very painful” decision he found necessary to break through the “two-party system.”
Shanahan, a wealthy tech entrepreneur, patent attorney, Democrat donor, full-time philanthropist and emerging farmer, said during the announcement that the Democrat Party has “lost their way in their leadership” and cares excessively for “elitism and winning at all costs.”
A donor t0 such causes as “criminal justice reform,” “social justice,” “Reproductive Longevity & Equality,” environmental efforts, autism research, and cooking oil, Shanahan provided $4 million to a Kennedy-supporting Super PAC for a controversial advertisement aired during the February 11 Super Bowl invoking the campaign of his late uncle, John F. Kennedy for which Kennedy later apologized to family members who might have experienced “pain.” ... continue reading at: https://www.thepostemail.com/2024/04/01/is-kennedy-vp-pick-a-natural-born-citizen/

Based on the public information available, Nicole Shanahan is not a “natural born Citizen” (NBC) of the United States since her Chinese immigrant mother was not a U.S. Citizen when Nicole Shanahan was born in CA. In addition to being born in the USA, to be a "natural born Citizen" the person must also be born to U.S. Citizen parents, both of whom are U.S. Citizens (either born or naturalized Citizens - but both parents must be a Citizen) when their child is born in the USA. “natural born Citizen” birth status insures that the person is born with the strongest allegiance to the USA at birth and no foreign allegiance(s), and/or dual-Citizen entanglements by the circumstances of their birth, which occurs when a child is who is born in the USA is born to a foreign national parent or parents.
The is what the founders and framers intended as is detailed in John Jay's letter to George Washington in the summer of 1787 during the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia PA. They did not want any future Commander in Chief of our military, once the founding generation was gone, who was born with foreign influence on them. This was further emphasized in the Federalist Papers that the founders and framers had great concern that persons born with foreign influence and allegiance requirements on them would ever in the future be allowed to gain access to the highest office, the President and Commander in Chief. So the put that NBC restriction clause into Article II Section 1 Clause 5, the presidential eligibility clause, for future Presidents and Commanders in Chief of our military. And later that requirement was added for the VP too via the 14th Amendment.

Steve Dunham wasn’t.
To the people that matter, she is eligible.
She has zero percent chance of winning.
This argument is a retarded distraction.
Good question! Let the Dems fret over this to knock out RFK Jr pick, then apply the same to Harris!!! And offers warning to Republicans for Cruz, Rubio, Haley, Ramaswamy, Gabbard and all of the other wanna be Natural Born Citizens. They are not!
Stop this pointless shyt.
Unfortunately for you, if we go by these "rules", Donald J. Trump's OWN siblings ain't "Natural Born Citizens", since their mother was from Scotland and STILL a citizen of the UK and NOT a citizen of the United States at the time of their birth. I guess Donald should have promptly stripped his "non natural born citizen" sister of career as a federal judge.
Natural born meaning no “C” section kids can be elected? /sarc
And Barry Obeyme, the Kenyan muslim socialist con artist, was never eligible to even be president.
Does it really matter? She has about as much chance of becoming VP, as anyone reading this thread.
The “natural born Citizen” term does not apply to Judges.
Matters not
The Kenyan marxist was seated despite not being eligible.
That requirement has been tossed out the window.
Yes it matters! Article 2 Section 1 Clause 5 should never be subverted. Just because Obama got away with it doesn’t mean another candidate can.
She’s a natural born idiot.
To CDR.....I repeat your article for those who skipped past your first posting!(p)
Here we go again. Another Kamala Harris. The politicos want to run another constitutionally ineligible person for one of the highest offices in our government.

This is the classic example of how something can be both true and irrelevant.
Obozo blatantly violated it and served two terms.
