This has been a problem since it came up.
You have to realize that the framers understood that language clearly, so clear that they didn’t think it needed a definition.
You have to go back to their point of reference to determine what that meant.
But as for now we can be satisfied with what the confirmation hearings that John McCain went through without further consideration that Obama agreed to.
that being that BOTH parents had to have been American Citizens.
Under that alone Obama is disqualified since he himself states that his father was a citizen of kenya.
Excellent question.
We know that the child born of foreigners on foreign soil does not qualify.
We all agree that a child of American citizens, born within the confines of The United States does.
I know from your long, consistent and vitriolic support that you believe having a single under-aged American parent qualifies 0bama to be the president, regardless of his place of birth.
I assure you, that makes you a trivial minority among thinking people who love America. I am generously assuming you fit in that group.
