Newsweek backtracked from their article earlier in the week where it claimed that Senator Kamala Harris doesn’t qualify to be Vice President of the United States. Unfortunately for Harris, there is still no evidence her parents were US citizens when she was born.

.......snip.......

da as well.

Newsweek released an op-ed where they claimed Kamala Harris likely does not qualify for the Office of Vice President this week. Professor John Eastman, Professor of Law at Chapman University and Senior Fellow at the Claremont Institute raised these concerns based on evidence known to date

Who cares? She’s a walking disaster for us. It’s perfect.

neither She nor Biden are ever going to see the White House so it doesn’t matter

A citizen and a natural born Citizen are not the same. The only time a U.S. citizen could become president was at the adoption of the Constitution until years later a natural born Citizen at age 35 or older was eligible. If I’m not mistaken, Martin Van Buren was the first Natural Born Citizen president under Article 2 Section 1 Clause 5.

We all know how the People's Republic of California lets illegal immigrants into politics. She is just the most recent, and highly public, example of that.

But if she's ineligible to serve, then it needs to be pointed out and her feet held to the fire. Of course, if the nation didn't do that with Obummer, they surely won't do it with her either.....

Nope.

Both parents have to be US citizens. Only US. Dual-citizenship status doesn’t count.

I was looking into what the Founding Fathers had described for the requirements to be a congressman and senator. The described the age required and how long each term would last. For the Presidency, they spoke of an age requirement and ‘no other allegiances to any other country’. And the Founding Fathers said that anyone elected, before the creation of our country, needed to be born of parents who resided in the territory that would become the first Colonies. I’ll try to find that again.

But it has occurred to me that anything that might scuttle the Dem’s needs is usually scrubbed ASAP. I found those descriptions a few days ago when I was looking for evidence, as some friends had their comments ‘fact-checked’ by the Leftist Facebook checkers. The comments were labelled FALSE.

She's not constitutionally eligible.

Yes she is and this is probably the 1,373rd thread in the past 12 years that constantly brings up this crap...........

Until the Supreme Court decides otherwise, your claim is useless along with the other Michael Rivero descendants still hanging on............

I believe it will have to be adjudicated eventually as more and more anchor babies run for Pres/VP

The 14th amendment established birthright citizenship. The intent was to ensure citizenship to freed slaves but it was poorly written and opened the door to the “anchor baby” phenomenon that gave rise to the likes of Kamala Harris. I don’t like it, and I don’t like millions of mexicans sneaking into the country to give birth, but unless we change the amendment it’s the law. Most countries require parents to be citizens for the child to be a citizen but unfortunately the U.S. isn’t that way, you just have to be born on U.S. soil. Again, I wish it was different but it isn’t. In the same manner most democrats wish the second amendment didn’t say what it does, but it’s the law and there’s not much they can do about it other than a constitutional amendment.

I think we need to pick another hill to die on than this. The 14th amendment made people like her citizens, trying to claim she’s not “natural born” because her parents weren’t citizens is disingenuous, the 14th amendment supersedes it.

I personally wish anchor babies were not granted citizenship, they’re not in the majority of the world. Unfortunately it’s clearly the law of the land here and unless we change the constitution it’s going to stay that way. I don’t see it being amended. Kamala Harris is clearly unfit to be president, but legally she’s eligible.

Because Pelosi cares more about power. She’s nuts, remember when she first became speaker under Bush she shrieked “I’m the most powerful woman in the worrrldd!” Then she demanded her own Air force one.

Too late to pass a law that clarifies who’s a nbc and who’s not. It’d be “racist.”
They know this, so they want to push that boundary until there just isn’t any. They hope we’ll challenge so they can label us. Challenges are racist, so we let them put forward questionable candidates.
We always back down, back off, bend over.

“A far out theory, yes, but in these strange times, you never know what’s next!!!”
_______________________________________________________________________________________

Nothing would surprise me anymore...even POTUS Nancy...

What bothers me about Sleepy picking Cameltoe is that she did so poorly in the DIM Primary, got ZERO delegates, and was one of the first major candidates to drop out...

Polls show that even Blacks did not like her...

She comes from a state that will be easily in the Blue column...

There were even rumblings from Chris Dodd, Joe’s man in charge of the VP vetting that she might not be a good choice because Joe might not trust her after the debate dust-up..

Her choice seems to go against every practical rule in Presidential politics...

So, what was Sleepy Joe thinking...did he really have a choice?

“The intent was for there not to be questions or concerns over potentially
divided loyalties, related to birth, for the Presidency.”

True, BUT...

A statement like that gives credence to the anti “Dual Citizenship” people.

Your statement is correct, but we are a country of LAWS. That is why in the constitution Article II, Section 1, Clause 5 was put in. (Article XII for vice president)

Being a “Dual Citizen” DOES NOT make a person ineligible!

It’s the natural born citizen clause in Article II, Section 1, Clause 5 was put in. (Article XII for vice president) that does. As defined by Vattel in The Law of Nations Book 1, Chapter 19, page 212.

“The Law of Nations or the Principles of Natural Law (1758)
EMMERICH DE VATTEL
BOOK 1, CHAPTER 19
Page 212, (in part)
“...natural-born citizens, are those born in the country, of parents who are citizens....”
IN the country, parent”S” (plural), who ARE citizen”S” (plural).
“...it was from Vattel’s The Law of Nations, more than anywhere else, that America’s founders learned the Leibnizian natural law, which became the basis for the American System.”
“The majority of this essay will be devoted to reviewing the contents of Vattel’s The Law of Nations, and its documented impact on America’s founding fathers.””
