“And both pretty well HAVE decided that a person born in the USA qualifies.”

Absolutely FALSE. The CONSTITUTION says NBC required, and the founders knew what it meant. They used the definition of NBC at the time. I’m sure you’re not saying they used the definition concocted some decades later. Are you? LOL

Two courts have ruled on the application of Natural Born Citizenship eligibility specifically to Barack Hussein Obama: the Marion County, Indiana Superior Court and the Indiana Court of Appeals. Both found that Obama qualifies as a natural born citizen. The appeal to the Indiana Supreme Court was rejected. Thus Obama was deemed to have legally qualified for Indiana’s Electoral College votes.

From the Appeals Court’s decision:
“Based upon the language of Article II, Section 1, Clause 4 and the guidance provided by [the US Supreme Court in the case of U.S. v] Wong Kim Ark [1898], we conclude that persons born within the borders of the United States are “natural born Citizens” for Article II, Section 1 purposes, regardless of the citizenship of their parents. Just as a person “born within the British dominions [was] a natural-born British subject” at the time of the framing of the U.S. Constitution, so too were those “born in the allegiance of the United States natural-born citizens.”—Indiana Court of Appeals, “Ankeny et. al. v The Governor of Indiana, Mitch Daniels,” Nov. 12, 2009
