Rubio in nbC under the 14th Amendment Art 1. since he was not the son of an ambassador or the son of an occupier. He was born in Fla and therefore he is nbC and he accepted the jurisidiction of the US. Therefore he is Jus Solis.

de Vattel is not the constitution.

Not sure how you can be a “natural born” citizen if it requires a law to make it so. The 14th amendment does not confer “natural born” citizenship on anyone.

Not sure where in “article” or rather Section 1 of the 14th amendment you’re referring to:

“Section 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.”

Since Rubio’s parents were both Cuban citizens at the time of his birth, Rubio was also born a Cuban citizen and “subject to the jurisdiction” of Cuba. Now, unless Rubio has formally renounced his Cuban citizenship he still might be considered a Cuban citizen and subject to being charged and executed as a traitor, should he return there. Haven’t had the time to verify this yet, but it’s on my bucket list.

“de Vattel is not the constitution.”

His writings were before the US Consitution and nation was formed, and were in French.

Who here has read them in French, including context, and can even explain what he was writing about?

When he used the oft cited description for NBC, he was simply stating that was the definition for his native Switzerland, and then said other countries followed different practices.

Nothing more.
