There are rules here folks. Anyone discussing Tulsi must post pictures of Tulsi surfing or in the red bikini.
Maybe she needs a new boyfriend.
“Citizen at Birth” is not analagous to “naturally born.”
As my post made clear,Samoans born in Samoa to any American citizen parents are “citizens at birth,” by virtue of the Immigration and Naturalization Act, passed in the 20th century long after Article II, Section one clause 5 was ratified in 1787. Prior to it’s passage they would not have been citizens.
The circumstances of a “natural born citizen” leave no other possibility for any nationality other than that of the sovereign soil on which they were born, owing to their birth to two citizen parents within that nation’s borders.
The primary rationale for Article II, section one clause 5
was to minimize the likelihood of undue foreign influence on the Office of POTUS, PARICULARLY from a father who might owe allegiance to a foreign sovereignty.
Read John Jay’s letter to George Washington in his capacity as President of the Constitutional Convention.
“Permit me to hint, whether it would not be wise & seasonable to provide a strong check to the admission of Foreigners into the administration of our national Government, and to declare expressly that the Command in chief of the american army shall not be given to, nor devolved on, any but a natural born Citizen.”
Ther common understanding at that time of Natural Born Citizen was derived from the Swiss jurist Emmerich de vatel’s treatise oon international law, “The Law of Nations.” The US Supreme Court incorparated in toto the entire 212th paragraph of that tome’s description of what constituted a natural born citizen. Two citizen parents and born on the soil. (Jes sanguines and Jus soli)
George Washington borrowed a book on 5 October 1789, according to the records of the New York Society Library.
Staff discovered it was missing when they conducted an inventory of books in the library’s 1789-1792 ledger in 2010. Washington had never returned the book – an essay on international affairs – to the library, which shared a building with the federal government at the time and was used by members of Congress and the cabinet as well as the president.
That book was Emmerich De Vate’ls LAW OF NATIONS!!!

They did this in the Venus Merchantman case of 1814. They were members of the founding generation. Justice Livingstone wrote for the majority.
And that accounts for her 2% in the polls. I like that she always looks like she's ready for a yearbook picture. But not enough to be in that 2%.
She was fellating the notorious Red Dellums before Brown. She figured out her talent and used it to politically climb.
Had not heard about him.

She was pushed into the wood chipper on live TV by former homophobe Tulsi Gabbard. Suddenly everyone realized, she's a glass-jawed bully, and pretty ugly to boot.
She will be the first dot Indian POTUS. Most of her positions are pro-Indian, pro-H1B with funding from dot Indian tech firms like Google.
Hopefully out of the race soon. We don’t need another foriegner in office, regardless of what her birth certificate says.
Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA), when she’s not busy running for president in 2020, is currently pushing a bill to bring 1.5 million “highly skilled” Indian contract workers into the United States. Another slap in the face of Americans...
