I wrote about this a long time ago. I went through my postings and I have been yapping way too much. It would seem to take a long time to get back to those discussions, but I looked this up and was shocked to find this discussion.
I will see if there is any way to dig this up again.
The reason I ask is that I remember a conversation on a blog back in the summer of 2008 when on of the participants had worked for the State Department.
The conversation concerned Natural Born Citizenship and its Constitutional origin. She related how even the State Department couldn’t get the definition correct in their manual!
So if you have that information it would sure be insightful. I suspect there has been a great deal of confusion over this issue for a long time.
