The paternal descent rule has been obsolete since not so long after Vattel.
The rule that applies to Drew68's son is the 14th Amendment. But of he had been born abroad, the outcome would be the same, given Drew68's citizenship. And if Drew68 were the mother instead of the father, the outcome would still be the same. Natural born. Eligible! Foreign government citizenship laws utterly irrelevant!
Birthers are a huge waste of time. Even if Zero had been born in Mombasa of a tramp from Liverpool and BHO, Sr., it would still require a majority of the House and two thirds of the Senate to remove him (Chief Justice Roberts, in his best robes, presiding, but not voting, of course).
If we got really lucky next November, I'm sure we could find a high crime or misdemeanor somewhere. But not the birth certificate, because no sane person believes that garbage!
Wrong, the 14th defines Citizenship, not NBC, a requirement to be eligible for the office.
Birthers are a huge waste of time.

By the way, where in the Constitution does it say that , “ Birthers are a huge waste of time. Even if Zero had been born in Mombasa of a tramp from Liverpool and BHO, Sr., it would still require a majority of the House and two thirds of the Senate to remove him (Chief Justice Roberts, in his best robes, presiding, but not voting, of course). “ ?
Whatever, does this, arguing against the majority opinion, suit you?
