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.

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
(Excerpt) Read more at thegatewaypundit.com ...
The Founders could have easily written that the qualification for eligibility was to be a CITIZEN. But they wrote: "No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President;
So why didn't they just make the office eligible to citizens? Why did they go to the trouble to write "natural born Citizen"?
Clearly, being a "citizen" alone is not sufficient.
You are a crazy right conspiracy theorist—in other words you are telling the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.
It’s not your fault, but they never taught you in school that to be eligible to the office of president or vice president you have to be a “natural born citizen” a VERY SPECIFIC thing, NOT JUST A CITIZEN!
THERE IS NO EVIDENCE BECAUSE THEY WERE NOT CITIZENS WHEN SHE WAS BORN.
THAT’S OUR EVIDENCE.
Ed O’Keefe of CBS News does in this piece from this morning.

i tend to agree, since it has been over 4 years since Sociable Insecurity Administration promised me a replacement SS card

“Until the Supreme Court decides otherwise, your claim is useless”

Hot Tabasco—how do you think the U.S. Supreme Court gets to the point where it is empowered to “decide otherwise” in the first place?
Somebody “out there” with standing to sue Harris and the DNC over Harris’ purported status as a natural born citizen has to actually file a complaint in federal District Court. The result is appealed to the local Circuit Court of Appeals by the party that lost in District Court. Then the party that loses on appeal petitions the Supreme Court, asking it to take up the case. If four justices vote to take up the case, the Supreme Court receives briefs, schedules and conducts oral arguments, and issues a decision.
One or more of Trump/Pence/RNC either have standing to sue over this issue right now, or will have standing to sue in a matter of a few days. Trump’s attorney has already dropped a major hint at Harris’ weakness on the NBC issue. Shall Trump and his team take their cue from you and refrain from suing? What kind of fighting spirit is that?
He was also saying something about how President Trump needs to just shut up about it and how foolish it sounds for him or his people to even mention it in a serious way.
I think that’s what he was saying ... as I was reaching to turn the radio off again. What an idiot.
Before any of this natural born stuff has any impact, Biden/Harris have to win the election. If you are concerned they might then perhaps you should spend your time campaigning rather than dwelling on this subject.
That's a dubious statement. They were residents of the United States and suject to the laws of the United States. Neither Jamacia or India had jurisdiction over them while they were living here. Perhaps true in the 18th Century, but not now and probably not true when the 14th Amendment was adopted.
The Royal Navy had the practice of boarding U.S. Navy warships looking for deserters from the Royal Navy. One of the means of identifying such deserters was by accent. They claimed that persons born in Great Britain were subject to the King and therefore subject to the service in the Royal Navy if they were mariners. The United States took the position that these persons were immigrants to the U.S. and no longer subjects of the King. They had the protect of the United States and were subjects of our country. One of the causes of the War of 1812.
So was Kamala Harris subject to the laws of Jamaica and India when she was born in Oakland, especially since her parents never returned to their native countries? This is a losing political, legal, and Consitutional argument. Although, it could be correct. Persons who were born in the United States, but not subject to our jurisdiction would have parents who were diplomats and perhaps foreign military personnel in the United States for training.
Therefore, Harris is a citizen if she was born in the United States.
You can’t just “pass a law”, it’s a CONSTITUTIONAL issue.
Supreme Court can rule or propose and pass a constitutional amendment.
I’m going to do both.
this is true, unfortunately, neither of my children are eligible because I was naturalized after they were born
Every breath we expend caring about her, takes attention for another second off the demented fool Biden.
Agree. Dems love it when the focus of fire is on Heels Up. She’s the VP. Traditionally, the attack dog of the ticket. She will revel in any food fights started by the GOP.
We're blessed around here to be in the presence of keyboard Constitutional Lawyers. Why didn't the GOP take their cue from you as far back as 2008 and 2012? You're shirking your duties dude........
Now you really have me curious, what was the last case you argued before the Supreme Court?........LOL!
Interesting. He’s clearly a moron or trying to deliberately present false narrative - ie lie out his you know what.
No really, I love you guys..........
“What difference does it make?” as the queen of azzholes gleefully said. It doesn’t matter. What will be done about? In today’s new USA, nothing, because those who can do something won’t, and most Americans are retarded.
