Wong Kim Ark was determined to be a ‘citizen of the United States’ as defined in the 14th Amendment. This is because he was born on US soil to two foreign parents.
Barack Obama is admittedly a ‘citizen of the United States’ as defined in the 14th Amendment. This is because he was born on US soil to ONE foreign parent.
Arnold is a ‘citizen of the United States’ as defined in the 14th Amendment because he was naturalized in the United States.
If Arnold can’t be President because he is ‘only’ a citizen of the United States, neither can Barack or Wong Kim Ark. They are also ‘only’ citizens of the United States.
ALL of them can be Senators or Representatives. NONE of them can be President.
“If Arnold cant be President because he is only a citizen of the United States, neither can Barack or Wong Kim Ark. They are also only citizens of the United States.”
For some reason, you seem to believe that people on this thread are claiming that anyone designated a citizen under the 14th amendment is elligible to be president. No one is saying that. What we are saying is that those who are born citizens as defined by the 14th amendment are elligible to be president.
I have a question for you: if, as you say of 14th amendment citizens, “ALL of them can be Senators or Representatives. NONE of them can be President,” who can be president? Do you imagine that there is a third category of citizenship in addition to natural born and naturalized, which I’ll call natural born citizens according to the 14th amendment? There isn’t. There are only two categories of citizenship, and people born citizens under the 14th amendment belong to the one that can be president.
