My husband and I decided to use a Canadian Hospital right across the border from us for the birth of our last child. The hospital was the only one within a reasonable driving distance that would guarantee that my husband could see one of his children enter this world.

It is our understanding that our daughter is ineligible to run for the Presidency, since she was born on foreign soil, even though we are both American citizens.

Am I wrong? If not, something is off with Obama being eligible with one foreign parent.

You have described the rule the way I understand it.

The SCOTUS could rule on any of this if it wanted to but it simply refuses.
