I just made a comment speaking to the commons sense of when a person born outside the US to US parents still fit NBC.

McCain got his pass because his father was on military duty in Panama.

Romney’s grandfather was not in the military or in the sevice of an American entity.

I suggest you quite being so blind to common sense. BTW, why don’t you link where a court has officially defined what a NBC citizen is. Don’t spend too much time because you will not find it. Why don’t you try though since you like to argue about things you don’t understand.

MINOR V. HAPPERSETT IS BINDING PRECEDENT AS TO THE CONSTITUTIONAL DEFINITION OF A NATURAL BORN CITIZEN.

FOUR Supreme Court cases that cite “natural born Citizen” as one born on U.S. soil to citizen parents.

” BTW, why don’t you link where a court has officially defined what a NBC citizen is.”

That’s easy...Minor v Happersett USSC defines NBC. Look it up youself, you might learn something. The definition of Natural Born Citizen, until Obama, has never an issue. It was always understood and accepted that children born in this country to citizen parents were the so called Natives / Natural Born Citizens. They form the very foundation of any society.

What has been an issue is what other (ie non NBC) circumstances of birth resulted in “born citizenship.”

The 14th Amendment was passed to insure citizenship for former slaves and their children, partially answered the question of who shall be a “born” citizen. (Note: Born citizens have No need for naturalization.)

USSC case WKA applied the 14th amendment to persons other than the initially intended former slaves and their children. WKA, born in the US to non citizen, but legally residing parents, was found to be a born citizen by the application of the 14th namendment.
