Nothing wrong with that. it’s the most reasonable thing to try.

Two caveats though:

1. A state can’t ask for documentation in excess of what the originating state provides. That would run afoul of the full faith and credit clause.

2. Any state that tries to define what a natural born citizen is in excess of “born here” will be sued and could have its law overturned as adding additional qualifications to the Constitution. But at least then the matter would be officially documented.

1. No state has provided any documentation in regards to Stitch Lips.

2. The Supreme Court defined natural born citizen as “born in the country to parents who were its citizens.” Under this standard, Stitchy would need to provide documentation of his U.S. birth and his parents’ birth/naturalization papers. Shouldn’t be a problem, no??
