I don’t think YOU are listening to precedence.

NBC are persons born on the soil of two citizen parents.

By your definition, any Mexican women can sneak across the border in the last minutes of pregnancy having never set foot in the United States and not knowing a single word of english and most importantly not owing ANY allegience to the United States, have her baby and THAT baby is elidgible to be President of the United States!

Ya right. I don’t think that’s what the founders intended when the contitutional requirment was written.

See what I mean? Birthers. That’s their story and they’re sticking to it.

That isn't what the law says currently.

What it should say, or what the founders intended by it, is an entirely different question. But so far, neither Federal statute nor court decision establishes that there are citizens who are "native-born" (born in US territory, of parents who are not agents of a foreign state) but not "natural-born" (eligible to be President).
