well no one alive is an exaggeration. I believe Obama and Harris are clear. Foreign parents. So I can do that easy. I am not a scholar and i didn’t write the article I posted, I cited the poster.

If the parents are both US naturalized or otherwise then I would think we have a NBC no matter what Iran claims or anyone else. The “free from other countries” is problematic, but we have to look at the situation. That’s what the courts have to man up.

Nope. If Iranian law stated that every US citizen was also an Iranian citizen, then every single person in the US would have the dual citizenship and be ineligible. Which is why, as my following post to DMZFrank stated, that you have to ignore foreign citizenship laws when you define your own citizens.

Except that's not what you/your cite said. (I didn't realize you cited all that, it wasn't italicized or anything.) The cite asked why any natural born citizen would have a foreign citizenship they need to revoke. And I gave a scenario - a naturalized citizen's children (born after naturalizing, of course) would be natural born citizens, yet their original country could pass the parent's original citizenship to the child because the parent was one of the foreign country's citizens. Hence, an NBC with foreign citizenship. The Iran part was an extreme example.
