This I believe could be a situation that the court might agree to hear. Rubio should file a motion for a declaratory judgment with the court. I would love for him to be declared eligible and a court could do it while being consistant with the Constitution.

Obeyme was born in a US Territory (Hawaii didn't become a state until later in that same month) to one citizen and one non-citizen. If Obeyme is eligible, then Rubio ought to be.
But I agree, we need a firm determination on the constitutionality of the issue.

Rubi’s parents were born in Cuba when it was a US protectorate so that adds to the complexity.

The parents’ birthplace has absolutely nothing to do with anything.

The parents birthplace has absolutely nothing to do with anything.People here simply do not get this. A child born in the United States is a natural born citizen. Period. I am amazed at how dense people can be sometimes.

“Rubio should file a motion for a declaratory judgment with the court. I would love for him to be declared eligible and a court could do it while being consistant with the Constitution.”
He won’t because he knows dang well he is not eligible to be president or VP.
If he does anyway, he is just another lying, crooked politician. And so what else is new?
To: ZachJones
Yeah, I much prefer to rely on Orly Taitz for deciding who is or is not a "natural born citizen." /rolleyes
Rubio is a natural born citizen and doesn't need some court ruling. This is a dead issue, time to move on. The child of an American citizen is a natural born American citizen.

You are the one who is dense. You have to be born on American soil and both of your parents have to be citizens for you to be a 'Natural Born Citizen'. Try reading real authorities such as John Jay and David Ramsay.
To: Wolfstar
This is an incorrect interpretation of law that needs to be challenged. People born here when their parents are here legally are citizens. The level of Natural Born is higher than that.

“...am amazed at how dense people can be sometimes.”
“Dense” is not the word. “Brain-dead” would be a better word but still not good enough...Although, “brain-dead” seems to be a finality of brain function.
I am totally flummoxed.
To: Gatún(CraigIsaMangoTreeLawyer)
Like Wolfstar, you are both ‘totally flummoxed’ and ‘dense’.
To: ZachJones
Lol.
If he was born here, he qualifies. That is all.

Try reading the constitution and requirements/qualifications for becoming president.
To: chris37

so according to you anchor babies qualify to be President of the US?
To: SargeK
I just wish the SCOTUS would sort it out. I think it’s too murky.
