'Countries may not like what we do, but they respect what we do' - Nikki Haley
CBS 8 ^ | Oct 9, 2018

Posted on 10/10/2018 8:59:47 AM PDT by CondoleezzaProtege

President Donald Trump accepted the resignation of Nikki Haley, his ambassador to the United Nations and one of his longest-serving aides, and said she would leave by the end of the year.

"She's done a fantastic job and we've done a fantastic job together," Trump said.

I don’t care if they like us, as long as they FEAR us.

She did a good job at the UN.
However she is not really on the side of the citizens and the rule of law.
She is a Bush League Republican hell bent on turning the USA into North Mexico.
Supported the ineligible Rubio for President.
Is ineligible for President herself.
Started the erasure of American history.

Nikki chose the most inopportune time for Trump to resign her post.
DJT really gets very little help from his people.
She has become just another politician looking out for herself.

There is so much more to this. I hope it means that she is being moved upstairs to a cabinet post. But which one?

Apart from the envious Ann Coulter types she seems well liked. She did a great job at the UN and before that won her re-election for Governor by a colossal margin.

Supported the ineligible Rubio for President. Is ineligible for President herself.

I think you mean they are unsuitable for the post, both she and Rubio are absolutely legally eligible. And will probably do so after a few years in private service to build a cushy retirement like all politicians do.

The children of foreign nationals inherit the nationality of their parents.
Haley was born an Indian national.
Rubio was born a Cuban national.
Natural born citizens have only one nationality.
The children of foreign nationals are precisely who the founders were excluding with the term natural born citizen.
They specifically rejected “citizen at birth” originally suggested by Hamilton.

Everywhere I’ve looked shows Nikki Haley having been born in Bamberg, South Carolina. Bamberg even has her as a notable citizen as a result.

What source do you use that shows her born elsewhere?

“Citizen at birth” is not the standard.
That was specifically rejected by the founders in favor of the more restrictive “natural born citizen”.
The children of foreign nationals inherit the nationality of their foreign parent(s).
One can only be a natural born citizen with two citizen parents.
One is only NATURALLY a citizen when one CANNOT be anything else.
Natural born citizens have only one nationality.
That was the point of the requirement.

Children of foreign nationals, born here, become America citizens.

After 8 years of Obama, this issue is dead, except as a discussion point in forums. If Haley or Rubio never become POTUS, it won't be because of this issue.

Enough Republicans still believe in the Constitution to prevent Haley, Jindal, Cruz, George P. Bush or Rubio from usurping the office.

Nominate them at your own peril.

This is a non-judiciable issue and the gestalt is overwhelmingly against this view. See how Obama was elected and served two terms despite not matching these criteria. Probably a multi-decade project to get it changed. It will need somebody like Trump to use the bully pulpit to get Congress to pass a law saying so.

Then the inevitable challenges need to make it to the Supreme Court who will then have to rule against their precedent in US v. Wong.

Republicans couldn't prevent Obama from serving two full terms - they certainly aren't going to prevent a Republican from doing so. It'll be up to voters to decide if the folks you listed above ever become POTUS, not the federal courts. This is a dead issue.

Democrats can elect ineligible candidates.
Republicans can nominate one, but they will lose.
