Legal question for all you jus soli types. Suppose a foreign woman was orbiting the earth. Does the child become an American only if they happen to be over the United States when he pokes his head out?
This is why your argument is so stupid. Ponder that for a bit.

Yes only when over the U.S. ZOT

You are not in any nation when you are in orbit. Airspace does not extend to infinity.

If born over North Korea or China they are a commie.
P.S.
I am assuming pregnant women are not allowed to go into outer space.

Good question.
Also, if a woman time travels back to the middle ages and gives birth on land that will one day be America, is that baby a native born American?
Also, if a blue fairy turns a wooden puppet into a real boy on American soil, can that former puppet be president? What if the original wood was Canadian?

Only if the baby has a freakishly huge head and the very top of it briefly touches the state of Texas before burning to a cinder.
There, I can play, too!

The child would be an illegal space alien and would be allowed to cross our borders with impunity.

This is why your argument is so stupid. No one made any argument, including you apparently.
