I'm listening to Leo Donofrio live as I compose this reply...
From the US State Dept., Foreign Affairs Manual, Section 7-1116.1-4C:
7 FAM 1116.1-4 Not Included in the Meaning of "In the United States" (TL:CON-64; 11-30-95)
a. A U.S.-registered or documented ship on the high seas or in the exclusive economic zone is not considered to be part of the United States. A child born on such a vessel does not acquire U.S. citizenship by reason of the place of birth (Lam Mow v. Nagle, 24 F.2d 316 (9th Cir., 1928)).
b. A U.S.-registered aircraft outside U.S. airspace is not considered to be part of U.S. territory. A child born on such an aircraft outside U.S. airspace does not acquire U.S. citizenship by reason of the place of birth.
c. Despite widespread popular belief, U.S. military installations abroad and U.S. diplomatic or consular facilities are not part of the United States within the meaning of the 14th Amendment. A child born on the premises of such a facility is not subject to the jurisdiction of the United States and does not acquire U.S. citizenship by reason of birth.

Wonder if they are talking about the case going before all the SC Justices on the 5th is being discussed over at DU. I never have been to that site and will never go there since many have told me what that site is like!
Bet they are going nuts about the posibility that “the one” might just not be sworn into office after all!
Those references refer only to a “child” not a child of two US citizens. But what those quotes do show is that aliens who have children in such circumstances do not birth US citizens which should also mean that Illegals should not be able to pass on citizenship to their children born here.
Nor do they change the fact that officers of the US do not see their children deprived of US citizenship if they happen to be born aboard.
Donofrio is full of it and working for the enemy.
