My father was naturalized at age 9, when his parents became US citizens. We have papers.
My FIL became a US citizen by choice after emigrating from Norway after WWII. He had papers.
Where are zer0’s papers?
He is not Natural Born and he was not naturalized after returning from Indonesia, where many documents list him as an Indonesian citizen by adoption.
IMO, he is a man without a country.
“......and he was not naturalized after returning from Indonesia, where many documents list him as an Indonesian citizen by adoption.”
There are numerious USSC cases that were decided on the idea that a parents actions, subsequent to a child’s birth, cannot alter his/her citizenship status. The courts have always held that actions of the child, upon reaching majority, are the determining factor.
To my knowledge Obama has never formaly renounced his US citizenship as required by law . There is, however, a legitimate question about whether or not he accepted a Fulbright Scholorship by claiming to the US goverment that he was an foreign Indonesioan citizen/student when he was in his early twenties by signing an affidavid to that effect when submitting his application for the scholarship. The question then becomes whether or not signing that application constitutes formal rejection of US citizenship and acceptance of the Indonesian citizenship at his adoption to Soetero.
An interesting question that will never see the light of day in a court of law......
“My father was naturalized at age 9, when his parents became US citizens. We have papers.”
What papers would your father have? Was he born in the USA or in another country?
My mother was not a citizen when I was born yet all I have is her Citizenship Papers.
I know of nothing issued in my name to naturalize me.
