If he was born on a U.S. military base (which I’m guessing he was?), then that is U.S. soil. The writer doesn’t make it clear, however, whether he was born on or off base.... which leads me to believe it was on base.
Doesn’t matter. Children of military personnel stationed overseas are born citizens, whether they’re born on base or off.
It actually doesn’t matter if it was on base or not. We’ve long since established that the birth clause is to establish citizenship and not exclude the accidental birth to an American tourist or servicemember abroad. A state department declaration of citizenship at birth is legally the same as being born here.
Doesn’t matter where he was born, if he was born to US military parents, he’s a natural-born citizen.
Doesn't matter. If his father (or mother) was in the military, and he was, and assigned to an overseas location at the time, then by law he's a natural born citizen.
I had this discussion with a friend of mine, who is Korean-American (She has American citizenship by naturalization) and her son was born on a military installation in another country. Turns out, he CAN serve as Prez, even though she was under the misconception he could not. /shrug
You don’t even have to be military.
As long as your mother was a US citizen at the time of your birth, then you’re a natural born US citizen no matter where you were born.
There are only 2 categories. You’re either a natural born citizen or you’re a naturalized citizen.
