The founders specifically excluded the children of foreign nationals from being President with the natural born citizen requirement.

One can only naturally be a citizen when one cannot be anything else.

Anyone born here of foreign nationals is also born something else, thus not naturally a citizen.

What’s disgusting is the so called talking heads on ‘our’ side who never bring up those facts when talking about Kamala Harris. I’m referring to Fox(hannity, etc) and much of talk radio. It’s how we got the O’muslim usurpation

We’ve been over this before, but:

Both of my grandfathers were born to foreign nationals, one in Connecticut and the other in Brooklyn. Neither of my grandfathers ever went through a naturalization procedure.

Both registered for the draft in 1917. Their draft cards had three options for citizen status: Natural-born, naturalized, or alien. They checked “natural born” (of course).

So, if one can only be natural-born or naturalized (or an alien), and my grandfathers were not naturalized despite having German and Irish parents - that would mean, according to you, that my father (and my mother) were also not natural born, despite being born in New York City in 1923 and 1924, and that therefore I am also not natural born, since my parents were never naturalized.

This leads to an absurd conclusion.

Are you saying that the draft cards issued in 1917 with three categories of citizen status were wrong to describe a person born in the US as “natural born”? Are you aware of any individuals, ever, who were born to persons legally residing in the US but of foreign nationality who were after they were born were required to naturalize?

You are proposing, I think, a fourth category of “citizen at birth, but not natural born”. Do you have any examples of such a person?
