“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, Haley and Vivek US citizens

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