When are both sides going to grow up and admit that natural born citizen has NEVER been LEGALLY defined in this country? The only thing legally obvious is that naturalized citizens are not eligible to become president.
Just curious as well, using your definition, would a child with an unknown father be eligible to president? An extremely common occurrence these days I might add.

No.

Actions and irresponsibility have consequences.
Having a child who can have any one of every single job an entire wealthy country offers except two is a pretty small price to pay for banging every guy on the football, basketball, track and baseball teams.
Some of the birthers get so deep into the weeds they cut off their own ankles without realizing it.
I have seen claims that Obama's "real" father was actually Malcolm X or some guy in HI who wrote dirty poetry, forget his name.
Both of whom were American citizens, and therefore would invalidate the claim that Obama isn't natural-born.
BTW, what of the possible case where a candidate's biological father is not the same as his mother's husband? Also not an uncommon occurrence. Should we require paternity tests for all candidates for President?
BTW, thanks for your comment. You are exactly right. The term has never been defined.
Odd that you asked since we already have one. Without medical testing few people know for sure who their biological father is, especially in the promiscuous society we have today.
