THE Constitution is based on jus sanguinas(birthright) not jus soli(place of birth). If you read the Constitution you will see that the phrase” be they born overseas” It doesn’t matter where you are born at if BOTH your parents are U.S. citizens you are considered a Natural Born citizen.
I don’t believe that the phrase “be they born overseas” appears anywhere in the US Constitution. I think that you are referring to the Naturalization Act of 1790 where the phrase “be they born beyond the sea” appears.
NATURALIZATION ACT OF 1790
“Act of March 26, 1790 (1 Stat 103-104) (Excerpts) That any alien, being a free white person, who shall have resided within the limits and under the jurisdiction of the United States for the term of two years, may be admitted to become a citizen thereof, on application to any common law court of record, in any one of the States wherein he shall have resided for the term of one year at least, and making proof to the satisfaction of such court, that he is a person of good character, and taking the oath or affirmation prescribed by law, to support the Constitution of the United States, which oath or affirmation such court shall administer; and the clerk of such court shall record such application, and the proceedings thereon; and thereupon such person shall be considered as a citizen of the United States. And the children of such persons so naturalized, dwelling within the United States, being under the age of twenty-one years at the time of such naturalization, shall also be considered as citizens of the United States. And the children of citizens of the United States, that may be BORN BEYOND THE SEA, or out of the limits of the United States, shall be considered as NATURAL BORN CITIZENS: Provided, that the right of citizenship shall not descend to persons whose fathers have never been RESIDENT in the United States: . . .” (capitalization for emphasis mine)
If both parents were required to be citizens in order to be considered a natural born citizen, the US Supreme Court would have already taken up one of the Obama eligibility lawsuits on appeal. They did not.
The Supreme court will deny any case against obama on the grounds that they can not bring relief( remove obama). Only congress can remove obama. A citizen may be born on U.S. soil and be a Natural born citizen , but being born on U.S. soil does not automatically make you a citizen or Natural born. The Natural born citizen clause of the Constitution is a security clause meant to remove foreign influence fron the office of the President. with obama as “president “ I now see why such a clause was necessary!
