Charles Curtis, Vice-President under Hoover, was not born in the United States. He was born in Kansas one year before it became a State.

Does not matter one bit. Being born in US Territory still makes one a US Citizen.

Not according to many of those who follow the cult of Vattel. They claim that John McCain would be ineligible because he was born in Panama, even though he was born on U.S. Territorial soil.

These cultists of Vattel claim that you must be born of two citizen parents within the nation itself to be a “Natural Born Citizen”.

The fact that the founders, fully aware of Vattel and his translations of Wolfe, rejected that language and went with the English Common Law language does not matter to them.

To them, Arthur, Curtis, and Agnew are examples of the long standing corruption that has caused gas to be $4 a gallon and puppies to not be as cute as they were in the 1950s.
