But someone such as Vivek is not a naturalized citizen.
Some Freepers say that there are two main classes to citizens, those being natural born,or those who are naturalized. If you didn’t have to be naturalized to be a citizen, then that makes you natural born .
That proves nothing just as the fraudulent election proves nothing.
True, someone would have to file a suit, and it would almost certainly have to be against a presidential or vice-presidential candidate, since those are the only cases where the distinction between “natural born citizen” and just plain “citizen” really comes into play.
But also, the suit would have to be filed by someone who has standing, and can demonstate actual harm. So I guess maybe the second place contender that loses to a candidate might be able to do it, for they could argue that, if the law was applied properly, they would have won the race, so they have actually been harmed by misapplication of the law.
I wouldn’t wager much money on the courts wanting to take such a case though.
(Is Arnold a US citizen? Then yeah. He could be president.)
Wrong! He is not eligible.
Wait. You’re saying if we don’t agree with you God will punish us? Begone. We don’t need totalitarians here in. You obviously want the conservatives to lose resulting in a totalitarian murder state. I think you are the one who needs to worry about God.
“didnt the founding fathers exempt themselves because they did not meet the nbc requirement?”
I see... They were all born in a British colony, none of them qualified with that logic. Is that from the Federalist papers?
That ship sailed in 08
That ship sailed on 1/20/09.
Even Arnold doesn’t agree with that.
Well, I was born in Washington DC (Bolling AFB). Am I not a natural born citizen either?
A so called fraudulent election gave us 8 years of Barack Obama. You call that nothing? Again, I plead with you NBC people - come back to reality.
You think the 3/5s compromise was pro-slavery? Have you been listening to the 1619 project or something?
Who is going to stop them?
But also irrelevant, as is most of the Constitution under the current regime.
What we need is someone with both the understanding and the will to do what is necessary to clean house. Even Trump strikes me as too much of a choir boy to do that, too infused with 1960s civic lessons who doesn't realize that his political enemies need to be destroyed before they destroy him and finish off what's left of the American republic.
Good question. You were born in a district, not a state.
I stand with the founders original intent. Do you?

No. And I told you why. They may have had good intentions, but they screwed up.
Have you been listening to the 1619 project or something?

Obviously not. Since I don’t know what the 1619 project is.
“But someone such as Vivek is not a naturalized citizen.”
Yes, but what I mean is that to say, essentially, “if someone doesn’t have allegiance to a foreign country, they must be natural born” is a bad argument. Since we already have a ready example at hand of people who don’t (or at who have sworn not to) have allegiance to a foreign country who are definitely not natural born, and that is the naturalized citizens.
“Some Freepers say that there are two main classes to citizens, those being natural born,or those who are naturalized.”
Yes, but that’s a slightly different argument. If there are 2 classes, then “not A” must equal B. That’s sound (if the premise is correct, and you can’t be a member of both).
The variation based on whether they have allegiance is more like: If there are two classes, and a third condition, to say “A doesn’t have this condition, therefore, if you don’t have this condition, you must be in class A” is a fallacious argument if anyone can demonstrate that even one member of class B also doesn’t have that condition.
Good point. What are the chances of the federal courts getting involved?
