Not my quote. You better go complain to the guys at Right Side News to quit saying it. I doubt they'd listen to you. However, you may not have understood what they are saying. That statement you italicized has nothing to do with a naturalized citizen. It simply says you cannot be a citizen of another county and be defined as natural born in accordance with the U.S. Constitution.

BTW, I have the same opinion as Leo Donofrio on what a 'natural born citizen' is. And Donofrio has a case, docket 08A407, that will be discuss by the Supreme Court on December 5th.

A small change to my previous post.

"It simply says you cannot be a citizen of another county and be defined have the same intent and meaning as natural born in accordance with the U.S. Constitution."

You know what? You can show people what the Constitution actually says, you can show them the Federalist papers which tells you what the framers actually meant but because we are so far away from the original Constitution people cannot fathom it.

I have a real hard time understanding how people cannot understand and keep twisting what Natural Born is. My gosh, we are a young country, we fought an Empire to gain our independence why is it hard for people to understand that the Framers wanted to make sure there were no other allegiences? Does it make sense that after all of the sacrafice and bloodshed they were like, “Oh, yeah it doesn’t matter, it’s ok to be both a British subject and an American”.

It’s plain as day they did not want foreign influences directing the Government of this country.

My God, the founding fathers would be appalled at how far we have pushed aside what they have fought for.
