You know as well as I do that most folks cannot comprehend the difference between "Natural Born" and "Native Born". They have a vague idea of what "Naturalized" means....but the other terms are interchangeable to most.
This means....there is an excellent chance that "Ted" just well may end up as our nominee. I do not encourage that because I know there will be "Blood"....and as Uncle Chip has so astutely pointed out.....he will be challenged in state after state by the "dummies" regarding any "Electoral" votes he can muster.
Good grief. Why is it so difficult to find a man (or a woman) who has been born here to two citizen parents....that espouses "total conservatism" and is not afraid to engage the morons who habituate the democrat party? I don't know the answer to this question....but I do know that if "Ted" is the nominee.....I'm not going to quibble and stay home!
That happened last time because too many folks were afraid of electing a "Mormon".....remember? He may not have had a staunch conservative background......but I do know he would not have done 99% of the anti liberty, anti free enterprise; anti Constitutional; anti intelligent things the current "Doofus" has done.....so far.
Even the Supreme Court has used the terms native born and natural born interchangeably. That’s because they ARE interchangeable and synonymous.
Schneider v. Rusk (1964):
“We start from the premise that the rights of citizenship of the native born and of the naturalized person are of the same dignity and are coextensive. The only difference drawn by the Constitution is that only the ‘ natural born’ citizen is eligible to be President. Art. II, s 1.”
