Barry Soetoro/Barack Hussein Obama should be proof enough of the wisdom of the founders when they tried to prevent him from being President by requiring someone who could only be a US citizen and nothing else.
Born here of citizen parents.
Naturally a US citizen because there is no other possibility.
One cannot be anything else and also be a natural born citizen.

Obama told us he was born a British Subject.

Who believes Washington, Jefferson, Adams, Jay, Monroe, Madison, etc. would have found him to be a natural born citizen?

Natural born citizen is an exclusionary term, meaning if one can be anything else, one cannot be a natural born citizen.
Born here of citizen parents.
Naturally a US citizen because there is no other possibility.
Solely a US citizen.

Inherited citizenship from foreign national parents or foreign place of birth negates natural born citizen status.

You are correct. Born in the country, to parents who are both citizens. The Odinga eight-year disaster should have convinced any sensible person, but here we have the GOP-e and the MSM pushing more ineligible candidates. Just chipping away at the US Constitution.

“Born here of citizen parents” Really?

I have three grandchildren. Their mother was born here of natural born parents (us), grandparents and great grandparents, but their father is a foreign national.

So, under your “analysis”, my grandchildren are not “natural born citizens” because they do not have two citizen parents.

And that’s what the Founders intended. I think not.
