why would the founders even bring up the topic of split allegiances?
why did they decide on the wording ‘natural born citizen’?
how does the phrase ‘natural born citizen’ insure against split allegiances at birth?
if you’re born with multiple choices of citizenship... wouldn’t that be the split allegiance the founders were talking about?
Just being born someplace does not equal an allegiance. We had all kinds of babies born in Germany to our troops stationed there. They had zero allegiance to Germany. They lived in US housing areas, they went to US schools, they even ate Burger King and Taco Bell and Popeyes Chicken.
Do you think they were German?
