You should be explaining why your perversely directed interpretation of U.S. Constitutional and citizenship law does not constitute a suicide pact.
Because everyone here is treating running for president the same as being inaugurated.
There are elections. That is the vetting process. The founders didn’t specify an extensive list of educational, financial, military requirements because the people decide.
People here are coming up with all sorts of non-sensical scenarios, as though any spy worth his salt wouldn’t be able to come up with any documentation necessary to prove his all-American roots.
I feel like the people leaning on this non-starter of an interpretation just want a short-cut, like when Obama ran. Do you really believe that if this interpretation had any validity, the machiavellian Hillary Clinton would not have knocked Obama out before even one primary was held? You know she and her people researched it and even put it out in the zeitgeist.
A natural-born citizen is a person born with citizenship, who doesn’t have to be naturalized to claim the rights of citizenship.
