Right you are. This whole “natural born” thing makes for an interesting theoretical discussion. But practically, it’s a dead issue. Dead and buried. It died the day Obama was elected. No court intervened then. No court will intervene now.

As you noted, focus on the issues.

Joe Six-Pack doesn’t care what “natural born” really means. He cares about how inflation is destroying his paycheck. And he cares about how illegals are flooding the border then committing crimes.

“I do not stand here to cavil with men who are not read in the horn-books of the law; but I assert that every man born within the limits of the Republic, or under its flag at sea, of parents who were not the subjects of any other sovereignty, are, in the very words of the Constitution, natural born citizens”

John Bingham, framer of Amendment XIV that made Obama, Harris and Haley US citizens

from the Cong. Globe, 37th, 2nd Sess., 407 (1862)

Enter in 407, click Turn to image, and look at the end of the first and beginning of the second column.

No. The globalists want you to repeat their message but even Obama's handlers created a fake birth certificate. Kamala Harris doesn't have such a false document to hide behind. Her parents' citizenship is on record and they became U.S. citizens after she was born.

Agree.

In 2008 I thought MAYBE there was something there. Not the natural-born argument, but something embarrassing. Turns out Obama stalled on his BC because he’s a dick. But there’s no “there” there.

Just. Stop. Now. Please.

It doesn’t matter if it is relevant and divisive. How many Chinese citizens have been birthed in the US, and are now dual citizens. Eligible to be President too. It has been going on for years now. It is a tourism thing, and they do it in Canada again.

Someday a Chinese Man or Woman, will show up and run for office, never having lived here. What do we do then?
