Under our Constitution, a naturalized citizen stands on an equal footing with the native citizen in all respects save that of eligibility to the Presidency. Minor v. Happersett, 21 Wall. 162, 88 U. S. 165; Elk v. Wilkins, 112 U. S. 94, 112 U. S. 101; Osborn v. Bank of United States, 9 Wheat. 738, 22 U. S. 827.There it is. A direct quote. And notice, absolutely nothing about U.S. v. Wong Kim Ark, which was 15 years earlier than this UNANIMOUS decision by the Supreme Court in Luria v. United States. And even though it says "native citizen," Minor exclusively defined native citizens as: all children born in the country to parents who were its citizens. No lower court trumps this decision.
Excellent point!
All you've shown is that judges in Indiana, Arizona and Georgia are ignorant of actual Supreme Court precedence.
There's been a STUNNING display of ignorance from MANY involved in this unvetted president fiasco. So much so that it's hard to believe it's only sheer stupidity and not something far more sinister.
I know of no one who disagrees that naturalized citizens are not eligible for the presidency.
If you are born in the US, where your parents were born is irrelevant to your status as a “Citizen of the United States at Birth,” (as long as your parents don’t have diplomatic immunity or aren’t members of a foreign invading military). There is not a single Justice (based on their rulings in previous cases) on the Roberts Court who believes that two citizen parents are required in order to be a natural born citizen, if you have “jus soli” status.

And in a lawsuit that went to the Supreme Court of the United States and was denied a Writ of Certiorari: Swensson, Powell, Farrar and Welden v Obama, Administrative Law Judge Michael Mahili, State of Georgia Administrative Hearings: “For the purposes of this analysis, the Court considered that Barack Obama was born in the United States. Therefore, as discussed in Ankeny, he became a citizen at birth and is a natural born citizen. Accordingly, President Barack Obama is eligible as a candidate for the presidential primary under O.C.G.A. under Section 21-2-5(b). February 3, 2012

Ten state or federal courts have ruled that Obama is indeed a natural born citizen with only one US citizen parent. No court has ever ruled otherwise.
