The 14th amendment has been wrongly interpreted. “Citizen” does not mean “natural born citizen”. Children of diplomats or other non-citizens here temporarily were never meant to be automatic citizens, what to speak of children of illegals, btw.

THere were massive research threads years ago and anyone around then who read them learned exactly what natural born citizen meant then and means now:

Born on US soil to two parents who are US citizens.

Note that Senators and Congressment or any other fedgov hiree or elected official just has to be US citizen, could be naturalized. But the Constitution specifically states that the President and VP must be natural born citizens.

There are many things the Constitution specifically states which has been ignored. Just saying.

Disgusting how they've managed to sweep this under the rug. Chester Arthur, BO, many of the 2016 GOP candidates, now this one too.
