they are citizens not natural born citizens, totally different.
If they are citizens - yes. (Although, being a citizen doesn’t seem to matter any longer.)
Apparently ANYONE is eligible to be president at age 35.
If Obama is, then the answer is Yes, as he has never had to show his BC. So what is the point of having that as a rule?????
Since non-citizens are eligible, I don’t see why anchor babies aren’t.
Obama did.
Yes. Under the current interpretation of citizenship law, they are natural born citizens.
Yes.
Clause 5. No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been Fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.
Are you cracking wise, Kelly?
:^)
If things keep up the way they are going now, it won’t make any difference by then
According to US v. Wong Kim Ark they are, especially if you read Fuller's dissent. Fuller laments the fact that, because of this majority's opinion, a child born to two US citizens outside the US would not be eligible to be President, but a child born to two non-Citizens on US soil, would be eligible to be President.
Pretty much sums it up.
Yes, they are Natural Born Citizens. Hence the term “anchor baby.”
anchor baby = us citizen, red, white, & blue.
Big fat NO...
Theyre not natural born citizens...
Luke ‘’The Drifter’’ says:
“We Americans got so tired of being thought of as dumbasses by the
rest of the world that we went to the polls last November and removed all doubt.”
Yes. They are natural-born, not naturalized.
sigh,,,, anchor babies were outlawed by the 1996 immigration reform.
Custody follows the parents so when the illegal alien parents are deported the us citizen child goes with them but is able to return at 18. The children of that citizen are only citizens by birth IF the citizen has lived in the USA for 10 years continuously.
There are no more anchor babies under the law.
I think you must mean birthright citizenship.
It doesn’t seem to matter any more. If you think it does, then you are a right-wing radical kook. Lord forbid we respect the Constitution...
