Unless Rubio had to go through the Naturalization legal system to become a citizen, then the conditions of his birth made him a natural born citizen. If it required no additional paperwork than the birth certificate, same as I, he was a natural born citizen.

That is not my understanding of the case law although the media would like to make it so. There was clearly in the mind of the people who wrote the constitution and it had to do with the allegiance of the Father at the time of birth.

Just as allowing right of way develops by not posting your property and allowing people free access the more we allow the muddying of the definition of natural born citizen the less the distinctions will mean.

I know English is hard to understand but not that hard.

This argument will continue on FR until after the election and depending on who wins may go on a lot longer. When all the B$ lawyerly arguments are done both Cruz and Rubio will still be unqualified. But it doesn't matter since we don't care.
