There is no foundation in either the Constitution or US precedent for the silly position that somebody’s parents have to be citizens at the time of his birth for that person to be a natural born citizen.

You ignorance of the Constitution (Article II, Section I, Clause 5) and Supreme Court binding precedent (Minor vs. Happersett 1874) is appalling.

Rubio is not a natural born citizen and, therefore, he is not eligible for the office of VP or President.

You know no one would even make an issue of that after Obama. It will not happen.

You lack the understanding of the Supreme Court or the true nature of Minor. For example there is one very important sentence: “For the purposes of this case it is not necessary to solve these doubts.”

If you actually listen to oral arguments in the Nguyen case before SCOTUS you will see they CLEARLY don’t agree on this issue...and you will see it is NOT settled law.

Interestingly, when another case came up recently that had used the Nguyen case as a basis - NO MENTION of the topic of qualifications to run for President came up.
