And think about it for a moment — if you follow their stupid argument, babies born of American citizens serving abroad in our military would be non-naturalized citizens ineligible to run for president.

It is also true. Children born abroad to US military are not NBC of the USA except in certain circumstances. See John McCain.

I actually disagree with this, but I am not overly troubled by the irrationality of it.

If my child was born in a Military Hospital while I served overseas then there ought not properly be a penalty depriving them of Natural Born Citizenship. The notion that there is a deprivation of Citizen’s option because of service to the Nation is patently absurd.

I am not greatly troubled by this incredibly foolish logic as my offspring are unlikely to ever run for any public office. Still, it is fundamentally stupid on its face.

As a matter of fact, my child was born in an overseas Military Hospital while I served. Who could ever justify such a stupid policy or interpretation of the rules regarding Natural Born Citizenship?It is an absolutely stupid concept.
