Is Kamala Harris eligible to be Joe Biden's VP?

Is Kamala Harris a natural born citizen?

It is no secret that Harris wants to be Joe Biden's vice president. The junior senator from California clearly sees an opening to her real objective: the presidency of the United States. With Biden surprisingly outlasting the other anti-American socialist candidates, Harris recognizes that Biden's age and declining cognitive abilities pose a glorious opportunity to resurrect her presidential ambitions. After all, there is an good chance that the bumbling, incoherent Biden might have to resign or be removed in his first term and his V.P. would succeed him. Even if Biden managed to miraculously finish his first term, it is unlikely that he would or could run for a second.

Harris would love to "back door" her way into the presidency, especially given the fact that her vacuous campaign was an unmitigated disaster, and any future presidential ambitions looked to be a virtual impossibility only a few months ago.

But not so fast. Harris is constitutionally ineligible to be VPOTUS (12th Amendment) or POTUS (Article 2). She is not — nor can she ever be — a natural born citizen, the highest standard of citizenship mandated by the Constitution for the president and commander-in-chief. The Founding Fathers wanted a higher standard of citizenship for the POTUS because they did not want any competing allegiances with foreign governments.

Harris was born in Oakland, California on October 20, 1964, to an Indian citizen mother and a Jamaican citizen father. Thus, Harris is a native-born American citizen, or a citizen pursuant to what I refer to as the anchor baby provision of the 14th Amendment. ... continue reading at: https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2020/08/is_kamala_harris_eligible_to_be_joe_bidens_vp.html

“I remember him. Since he is now in the Great Cage Match in the sky, he can still vote Democrat, but I don’t think he can run for office. Wouldn’t be much good on the campaign trail.”

I’ll take the dead Kamala over the live Kamala on the campaign trail anytime especially when the guy at the top of the ticket he is running with is equally as brain dead.lol

Hi.

The first clause of the 14th amendment says no also. When Kamala was born on U.S. soil, neither of her parents were citizens. Therefore she was born under the jurisdiction of her parents.

Who happened to have owned slaves.

US vs Wong Kim Ark (1898) ruling by SCOTUS says that she is a natural born citizen.

The US Supreme Court ruling that “a child born in the United States, of parents of Chinese descent, who, at the time of his birth, are subjects of the Emperor of China, but have a permanent domicil and residence in the United States, and are there carrying on business, and are not employed in any diplomatic or official capacity under the Emperor of China”, automatically became a U.S. citizen at birth

“the rules of natrualization. That includes who is a citizen at birth and who needs to be naturalized.”

Dude, NATURAL BORN do not have to be NATURALIZED. SO your first doesn’t precede the second.
You don’t need a written law to confirm a NATURAL right.
Unquestionable allegiance at birth, in and of itself, gives you Natural Born citizenship.

Don’t mix the two up in the same sentence. That’s just lefty games.

Leave the discussion to those paying attention.

Now, go finish your juicebox, it’s almost nap time.

What was the residency status of Harris’s parents at the time of her birth? Were they “under the jurisdiction of the United States”, i.e., legally in the US as residents?

Both of her parents would have needed to be citizens at the moment of her birth.

Unfortunately, the definition has been watered down to just born here.

she is not eligible and SHE KNOWS IT (she’s carefully suppressed all of the facts establishing her ineligibility from her website and campaign materials)

SD: Citizen at Birth under naturalization law Section 1401 and the 14th Amendment are made Citizens of the United States, not a “natural born Citizen” of the United States. The adjectives “natural born” do not appear in the 14th Amendment or Section 1401 of the naturalization law. Adjectives mean something. Natural refers to “natural law” not man-made laws or amendments or treaties. Of tree and plants — all trees are plants but not all plants are tree. See this Euler Diagram to prove the truth or fallacy of the argument regarding the various sets/kinds of citizens and further education: https://cdrkerchner.wordpress.com/tag/euler-diagram/

A Citizen at Birth is a subset of all Citizens. And a “natural born Citizen” is a subset of all Citizens at Birth.

It is the Citizenship status of the parents that govern natural law and “natural born Citizenship. A Citizen at Birth is a subset of all Citizens. And a “natural born Citizen” is a subset of all Citizens at Birth.

No, Congress completely shirked their duty under the 20th Amendment and did not even ascertain that he was old enough much less a natural born citizen.

No, but she could be Joementia Biden’s Mistress.

She has the Resume and a Referral from one of CA’s most powerful former Politician’s to prove it.
