I was born in 1932 Boston——lots of us had parents that were not US citizens when we were born. They all became citizens.
.
NOT all of them were eligible to be president according to the NBC requirement.
You aren’t on the ticket as Vice President, though.
My grandfather had four sons, all born in the U.S., but before he himself got his citizenship. His wife, my grandmother, was born in the U.S. I’ve had people on this board tell me that my dad and uncles weren’t ‘natural-born’ citizens and thus were ineligible to be President.
I respectfully disagree and frankly have never heard of any court ruling that made that claim.
Having said that, it is fascinating that Obama’s dad wasn’t a citizen, didn’t plan to become one and never did. Neither did his step-dad. Obama’s mom seemed to favor foreign types and Obama spent his boyhood listening to the call to prayer in Indonesia.
And now we have Harris whose parents weren’t citizens at the time of her birth and like Obama she was raised in a different country.
“citizens’ is one thing...
A NATURAL BORN CITIZEN—eligible to be President is totally another thing.
BOTH parents MUST be American citizens when the child is born
and neither of Kamala’s parents were USA citizens.
Kamala is an anchor baby-—nothing more.
She is also a citizen of Jamaica thru her father.
