Over 100 years of legal precedent since the 13th and 14th have effectively conferred citizenship on ANYONE born in our borders (ie birthright citizenship). Why do you think that even the children of illegals born here have citizenship, as they have for several decades? Whatever you think about "original intent" is irrelevant in the face of existing legal opinion.
Why do you Obots continue to try to confuse the issue? There is no civil right to be president. Natural Born Citizen is a unique requirement to be president. A citizen that became a citizen by the action of law is NOT a natural born citizen. Period!

So who gets to decide what qualifies as Natural Born Citizen? Do you think the “deciders” are going to disqualify Obama? Or is it much more likely if they even hear the case that whatever Natural Born Citizen meant in the past will become equivalent to the statutory definition of citizen.
