BTW nothing in the Constitution references the definition of natural born citizenship.

Hopefully, the more Barry tanks, he’ll get tripped up by all the other OUTRAGES that are going on in his administration.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The meaning of “natural born” was commonly understood when the Constitution was written. If the word “blue” had been written into the Constitution would you also want a definition of the exactness found in a graduate level physics book also included?

If our Founding Fathers were to have written the Constitution to the exactness that you expect regarding “natural born” and every other word, term, phrase, and sentence, the Constitution would be the size of our IRS code.

Ultimately, our success as a republic does not and will not depend on “definitions” in the Constitution or any other law. We, as a society, can NOT write enough laws or define them precisely enough to corral evil. Evil will find a way to leak through the most carefully crafted laws.

Whether or not our experiment in self-rule succeeds depends upon our **HONOR**, character, honesty, and ( ultimately) fear of the Lord.

Obama and his minions are not honorable.

An honest man would have been HONORED to promptly provide **all** documentation regarding his natural born status.

An honest man would have been **HONORED** to immediately prove to the troops in his command, and to the American people, that he is indeed qualified under the Constitution to be the president and the Commander in Chief.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Again...If the Founding Father felt the expression “natural born” needed a definition they would have given one. The expression “natural born” must have have had a self-evident and commonly understood meaning among the citizens of the time.

Also...if every word, term, phrase, sentence, and paragraph were to be a tightly defined as you seem to wish, the Constitution would be the size of a modern Democrat Party health care bill!
