He is. Chester Alan Arthur settled this issue.

Rubio has a more tenuous claim if you ask me since neither of his parents were citizens at the time.

Natural Born = born of two citizen parents within the borders of the USA. That was the universal understanding until McCain ran for President and the Congress hastily declared him NB in order to get the pressure off of Hussein. Arthur was not a precedent because the disqualification was successfully hidden and denied for a long time after his tenure. We aăe no longer evading the requirement, it is being changed to benefit the preferred candidate of the moment. The Democrats will not push it if they think it will open up Hussein’s can of worms to inspection.

How do you claim that Chester Alan Arthur settled this issue?

It must not be birthplace because he was born in Fairfield, VT and that would suffice for Natural Born Citizenship (hereinafter NBC) even if his parents were citizens only of outer space.

Are you claiming something about the citizenship of his parents? Given his citizenship by jus soli, it is irrelevant. Likewise, Rubio was born here which suffices and Ted Cruz's mother was a NBC who happened to give birth to him in Canada, just as Obozo's NBC mama Comrade Stanley Anne gave birth to him in Kenya according to his paternal grandmother who claims to have been present at his hatching. Obozo was thus a NBC by jus sanguinis.
