I’d asked whether or not an *anchor baby* could one day run for POTUS several months ago. Can’t remember who it was that answered but the answer was, yes.

Kinda blew me away. It’s just not right...(sigh).

That issue is actually discussed (by the dissent) in the Supreme Court's Wong Kim Ark decision. I think the courts would rule that born on U.S. soil=NBC, period.

I presented a similar scenario to a poster the other day only using Putin as the example, I got the same response that you did.

I'll FRmail the poster to you, I won't give him the courtesy of mentioning him, cause then I'd have to ping him

It was on this thread, a good one if you missed it.
