answer to post 158: I would be issued a Kenyan birth Certificate- and i would be a foreigner even though i had american parents.. the soil you were born on is who you are..Natural Born means US soil
Except for the fact that in the very first naturalization law passed in Congress and signed by President Washington in 1790, the Founding Fathers made an exception: “The children of citizens of the United States that may be born beyond the sea or out of the jurisdiction of the United States shall be considered as Natural Born Citizens.”
No it does not.
My wife is not now nor has she ever been a German citizen because she happened to be born there.
Just like a foreign diplomat has children born in a U.S. hospital, his/her children are NOT automatically U.S. citizens.
