“Another FReeper who can’t seem to grasp that this discussion isn’t about citizenship.

It’s about ‘natural born’ status.”

Natural born status has to do with citizenship, or am I missing something?

“It is entirely possible to be a citizen of the United States, while not being a ‘natural born’ citizen.”

Duh, you can be a naturalized citizen. Either you’re born a citizen or made a citizen; those are the two choices.

“To be a ‘natural born’ citizen, the citizen must have been born in the United States of America, the child of TWO US citizen parents”

Says you. But as it so happens, there is no division between 14th amendment babies, which you call “native born,” and two-citizen babies, which you call “natural born”. There is no difference between native born and natural born citizen. That distinction lies entirely inside your own head.

It is abundantly clear that you didn’t read any of the documentation I provided you.

You know what they say about opinions.

You are wrong, sorry. There is a difference.
