Kamala Harris’s birth situation is precisely the same as the subject of the Wong Kim Ark vs Us SCOTUS decision of 1898. The court held that Wong Kim Ark was a CITIZEN (not a natural born one) by virtue of the 14th amendment, which did not exist in 1787 when Article II, Section 1, clause 5 was ratified. The 14th amendment does not refer to Article II or modify it in any way. He was born in California, and his Chinese immigrant parents were lawfully resident in the US.

When Harris was born, neither of her parents were US citizens, but were here on legal visas. That makes her citizenship identical to Wong Kim Ark. If the 14th amendment did not exist, then she would not even be a citizen.

Someday, we are going to get the SCOTUS to adjudicate this Article III matter for the 1st time in US history. That is, what exactly is an Article II Natural Born Citizen eligible to assume the office of POTUS?

I get a lot of mileage posting your NBC info. Thanx If 5 or 6 secretaries of state would refuse to put her on their state’s ballot due to not being an NBC, the USSC would have to issue a ruling.
