Uh huh. Rubio is an American citizen under the same legal definition that Barack Obama is. The Supreme Court ruled that's good enough, and precedent has been set.

That said, if Democrats want to argue that their black American is more of a *real* American than a Hispanic, then I wish them all the best. I'd love for that debate to run wild and free right before an election. Democrats hate Hispanics, film at 11. Yeah. I'd donate to left wing birthers just to keep that pain alive.

Eat your heart out, Alinsky. I read your book, you magnificent bastard. I read your book. ;-)

“The Supreme Court ruled that’s good enough, and precedent has been set.”

Not quite. Obama has a better claim than Rubio.

Obama had one citizen parent and one legal resident parent.

Both Rubio's parents were legal residents.

Personally, I'm a jus solis guy, so they're both NBCs in my book.

The Supreme Court ruled this when?

SCOTUS never ruled that someone born owing allegience to a foreign crown is Commander in Chief eligibile.

There is no such "legal" definition.

And you must have seen the movie ‘Patton’. I believe that Rubio no matter how sterling a person and qualified for POTUSA, he is out of the same boatload of children as my brother and I as to not having validated citizen parents. To make exceptions from either side prostitutes the distinction between ‘ natural born citizen’ and just ‘citizen’ as explicitly distinguished in the Founders Constitution for our Nation and can give us people like Obama. Some of us just have to accept what is reality, like my brother who also served the USA and died for it on Okinawa and I who was in the line for the invasion of Japan. Plain citizenship should be sufficient to do good for this exceptional Nation.
