1st & biggest problem this person has is they are quoting the WRONG law. The Mexican law at the time George Romney was born(1907 NOT 1940) stated that Mexican ‘born’ citizens were ONLY those who were ‘born’ to Mexican citizens aka Vattel law of nations definition applied when George Romney was born. So unless Mitt's grandfather renounced his US citizenship and became a Mexican citizen prior to little Georgey’s birth, George Romney NEVER attained to the status as a Mexican citizen. Thus Mitt is not eligible for president in Mexico, but he IS in the US.

I am not sure that it matters what Mexican law says.

My suspicion is that the courts will ultimately find that “natural born citizen” simply means that you were a citizen from birth.

You're correct, patlin.

The originating poster, "Obama Exposer," is new and probably joined to spread this moonbat information to discredit FR.
