They (Birthers) have become an embarrassment haven’t they Eric? Rubio, Jindal and Romney were all born on U.S. soil. They need to spend their energy and efforts helping Sheriff Joe and Donald Trump go after the Kenyan Marxist in the White House. Bring him down, then any other “ineligibles” will fall like a house of cards; that simple.
They need to check for a boogieman under their bed.
“Rubio, Jindal and Romney were all born on U.S. soil.”
Which makes them all born citizens. (Although Romney has the added quality of being born to citizen parents making him an NBC and eligible to hold the office of the President, which is not true of the other two.)
Unfortunatly that is not the Constitutional eligibility requirement. At least my copy of it requires that Presidents be born in the country of citizen parents....natives....Natural born citizens....whose citzenship flows natually from the citizenship of their parents.
It goes deeper than that. The Founders realized that any future Presidents be fully American, steeped in the traditions, mores, history, laws, and ethic of America. Only birth to citizen parents could provide that. (No it is not a guarantee, but as sight better than anything else.)
Being raised within the culture assisted the parents in best insuring that a child was indeed All-American without any foreign influence. Any other circumstance of birth does not give the same insurance.
