Being a mere born citizen is not sufficient. One must be a true natural born Citizen, that is a citizen by inherent nature, not by law or statute. Harris is merely a statutory born citizen who was born with citizenships in three countries and with divided allegiances among those countries. A natural born Citizen is born with sole allegiance to the USA, which is why the Constitution requires it of presidents and VPs.

If being a mere "born citizen" were enough then the Constitution would have stated that (that language was considered, but rejected in favor of the more restrictive natural born Citizen.)

And, by the way, the SCOTUS had never directly ruled on the definition of natural born Citizen.

I’m not supporting her at all, but she was born in Oakland. How much more natural born in the US can you get?

Thanks. I’m 72. My father was born in Holland, and my mother was born in Canada. My Dad came to the U.S. in 1912 with his parents and two brothers. He was about 8 at the time. My mother came with her mother and older brother in around 1923-24. She was probably 3-4 years old at the time. My Dad was naturalized with his two brothers when their father became a citizen. His mother was dead by then. My mother never became a citizen although my Dad always pushed her to do so.
