Yes, he would be allowed to run for President. That only seems shocking to you because all these silly hypothetical examples seem to presume the individual in question is automatically electable.

I guess its redundant. Obama proves your point. We elected a man, a dual citizen, whos father was a communist from a foreign country. Obama has been disloyal to the US, so your point is well taken.

The constitution now allows foreign citizens to birth their sons on our land and give them rights to the presidency.

You win, Obama is the proof. The NBC clause is trash by virtue of the fact that Obama is in the oval office.

Uh, huh..the Founding Fathers fought wars, sacrificed everything, pledged their lives and sacred honor just so a foreigner could some day become POTUS.

Do you have any Idea how ridiculous that sounds? And even more so that you defend it?

Yes, he would be allowed to run for President.

No he would not, he would not be a NBC

So I guess you and I have no quarrel.

Any citizen from any country can make arrangements, if he desires, to have his son eligible for the US presidency by arraigning for the birth to take place here.

If only there was a clause in the constitution that could forbid this, I wonder how Washington would word it.....
