My 4th great grandparents were both born in the American colony of New York...1757 and 1767
they were both children of 2 American colony born parents, the descendants of people born or lived here for generations
they met and married in the new country of Canada and had children all born there...my 5th ggf was born in 1797...was he eligible to be POTUS ???
that man never lived anywhere else but Canada and married a woman born in Vermont (the child of of other US born people) and had children all born in Canada...their son born in 1831 was my 2nd great great grandfather...
was this last man eligible to be president ???
Of course he was based on what the courts and some FReepers here have determined...
and yet the Obama birthers claimed he wasn’t and at that time I agreed with them...
however now we have Cruz also born in Canada to an American born mother but a foreign born father with no previous American ancestors, and suddenly the rules have changed ???
This Pennsylvania decision does not say American born only American citizen that can mean American born or naturalized.
So American citizenship is toilet paper!
