Re your post 8 on the US Code:
Aren’t you equating “citizens of the United States at Birth” as defined in the statute with “natural citizen?”
By the way, I think that in the modern age, with travel so easy, there is a problem with the oft-argued about definition of natural citizen. To me, the idea is that no one should be President “who isn’t from around here.” In the old days, when travel was more difficult, being the child of citizens, and born on native soil pretty much ensured an early upbringing in the culture of the country. That isn’t true now.
I don’t know how to define “from around here” in a way that we could agree on and that would stand up legally, but Obama sure doesn’t act like he’s from around here. He isn’t rooting for the home team—he’s trying to remold it according to some amalgam of leftist, globalist, racist, and Muslim ideals.
This is what the Constitution of the United States, Article II, Section 1, Clause 5 says:
“No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.?
That is all the Constitution has to say regarding this situation.
No matter how many times this comes up....
...it never fails in a “Natural Born Citizen” discussion for someone to hop and try a sleight of hand with a “Citizen” argument.
It’s deliberate...
