“Natural Born was traditionally taken to mean born in this country to parents who were both citizens.”
“No it wasn’t.”
Yes it was. If you read the Federalist Papers you will see the intent of the framers as to Natural Born. 4 SCOTUS cases have already defined Natural Born as born in the US of two US citizen parents.
Barack Obama was allowed to slip through the crack and you see how thats turned out.
I must have missed that Federalist. Which one?
As I said in my post, that is not what the Framers said at the Constitutional Convention.
Please cite the references in the Federalist Papers and the four SCOTUS opinions.
That is not what the courts said. They said that there is no doubt that born here with citizen parents is definitely natural born, and there have been questions on whether you can be natural born with non citizen parents, but the courts decided that issue was not relevant to the cases, so they did not decide either way. So the actual results of the USSC cases are that they did not completely define the term because it was not relevant to the cases. The issue remains without USSC closure.
Obama isnt any worse than someone like Pelosi or Schumer would have been. So should we just not let anyone born in the northeast run for President either?
