Sooooo....why do you defend him so much regarding his Constitutional eligibility?

Nice tactic in changing the subject, troll.

The truth is important. Ask LTC Lakin, who had his butt handed to him in court after he made the mistake of listening to Internet Rambo Birthers...

If Obama was born in the USA of parents here legally, he is qualified per the Constitution. Evil, but qualified.

Yeah, a decorated 18+ year Vet who did more for his county than your f***king idol obama could ever dream of....people like you make my skin crawl...drink the stench deep and suck the corruption willingly lest they kill you first.

If Putin came here, had a son he abandoned, and the son was raised by the American mother and American grandparents, then in what sense does the child owe squat to Russia?

MR Rogers LIE about Vattel:

Vattel also says it is different in England than where he is - that the King grants the children of aliens natural born subject status.

What Vattel actually said:

Finally, there are states, as, for instance, England, where the single circumstance of being born in the country naturalises the children of a foreigner."

Some countries may choose to naturalize the children of aliens (such as Barry claims to be) at birth. They are not natural born citizens. They are naturalised, under natural law and the Law of Nations, the language of the Constitution.

As we know...Clearly, in the times that predate the Constitution, Natural (& Naturel in Frech), Native and Indigenous (or Indigenes in French) were all alike in meaning.

Just a few examples...

The inalienable truth that citizenship is an international term where many countries still confer citizenship to children through the father, not the mother.


And that is exactly the reason there is any question about this topic. NO ONE ever discusses this component in an open manner.

I’ve always wondered why they used two different statements in the qualifications i.e. for POTUS or Congress.

To me if they truly meant the same thing then why not just use Native Born Citizen for both?
