“A Natural Born Citizen is one born under the SOLE JURISDICTION of the United States.”

Sorry but no other country can remove or affect a citizen’s birth rights to this country. McCain was born in Panama. Panama has every right to claim he is a Panamanian citizen, yet, that does not affect his natural born citizenship having been born to US parents on military duty overseas. I have two sisters in the same boat.

You can blah, blah, blah all you want and post tripe all over the place, but the fact remains than when a US mother gives birth in the US and has been in the country long enough a required by law her child is a natural born US citizen regardless of who the father is and what country wants to lay claim to the child.

Sorry dude, but not only are you wrong, you are ignorant of both law ans history. Perhaps you should READ what I posted.

its all there in the historical record. Sorry to shift your paradigm, but it is what it is.

It isn't about removing citizenship. It is about RECOGNIZING the sovereignty of other Nations. If McCain was NOT born on the Territory of the United States, then he was NOT a Natural Born Citizen. If he was born on the base, or on U.S. Territory then he would be. The same for your sisters. If they were NOT born on the base, in US Territory, then, no they aren't Natural Born Citizens.

The State Department has NEVER changed this defination.

A Natural Born Citizen is one born under the SOLE JURISDICTION of the United States.

Sorry to shatter your perception of the universe, but it is what it is.
