seems there is an organized effort to not address or discuss the issue of NBC, in media
Someone told me the other day that Wiki claimed that Jindal’s and Rubio’s parents were ALL naturalized before their births in 1971.
That is mighty strange because I have read quotes from Jindal in which he states that his folks were STILL Indian citizens when he was born.
As for my main, MAIN man, Marco Rubio: I have been asking him for the truth about his folks for months and all I get back is evasion and smiles. Other FReepers tell me about similar responses. One very active Fla FReeper said she is sure that Marco’s folks were naturalized by 1971 but neither she or anyone else I know can cite documentation.
Plus he has the added complication of Castro’s regime claiming him as a dual citizen.(minor to us...but imagine how that factoid would set off the Left!)
I also think the NBC issue is being supressed due to the massive amounts of immigration we have been experiencing. We wouldn’t want to hold back Ivan, who was born in Brooklyn in 1975 of Russian citizen parents, now would we? So discriminatory! Why, Ivan is the salt of the earth! It would be IMPOLITIC to not let him run! (all figurative and hypothetical, of course).
That’s the key: we are letting POLITICS determine the interpretation of the Constitution. That is the province of the SCOTUS and, ultimately, the People. No legislature, politician, media personality, or journalist can define what the Constitution says.
