“If born in the country, is as much a citizen as the natural-born child of a citizen ”
Have to be a contortionist to read this as being equal to a NBC. As much a citizen, yes. NBC,nope.
“As much a citizen, yes. NBC,nope.”
How can one be denied presidential access if one’s status is equivalent to a natural born citizen (in fact, is a natural born citizen, which is saying the same thing)? Not being eligible would mean you are of a seperate class from natural borns, which automatically means you’re not “as much a citizen” as they.
