Impossible, since the Constitution doesn’t define natural born citizen.

The definition of "natural born citizen" is provided in very clear text in the background documents of the Founders. It is clearly one born of two American citizens. That crap about alien citizens giving birth to US citizens is crap lawyers made up and the courts had no backbone to dismiss.

You can call it anything you want, but courts will go by the “crap lawyers made up and the courts had no backbone to dismiss.”

Therefor, the idea that a military court martial will allow Lakin to disobey orders because Obama’s father was Kenyan is stupid. They won’t even consider the possibility that Obama isn’t President - UNLESS Lakin has a solid reason for believing Obama was born outside the US.

You can find the definition in Vattel's Law of Nations and in David Ramsey's writings.

The Founding Fathers did not define it in the Constitution because it would have been considered common knowledge at the time.
