"Actually, you wouldn't need to worry about paternity. As every passisng day attests to, the parents' citizenship has no bearing whatosever on the natural born status of an American-born child."

That is incorrect. Natural-born citizenship requires both parents were U.S. citizens. Your son is NOT eligible to hold the office of POTUS as his mother was a foreign national.

“Natural-born citizenship requires both parents were U.S. citizens.”

Evidence?

Read the argument in Wong Kim Ark:

http://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/html/historics/USSC_CR_0169_0649_ZO.html

Read what the Indiana courts held, and what has not been challenged by any state or member of Congress or Federal Court:

“Based upon the language of Article II, Section 1, Clause 4 and the guidance provided by Wong Kim Ark, 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.”

At an absolute minimum, no one can claim it is settled legal opinion that NBC requires both parents to be US citizens...

Godebert? Drew has been a long time advocate of anything that would keep his living god in office. Check his posting history.
