Vivek Ramaswamy is many things: graduate of Harvard and Yale, hedge-fund hotshot, biotech entrepreneur, author, and popular speaker at conservative functions, but Vivek Ramaswamy is not legally eligible to be president.
This might come as a shock to many conservatives who seem to be drawn to the dashing young political ingenue, but shocking as it may be, it’s true, and patriotic Americans should stand by our constitutional standards, even when they go contrary to our own presidential preference.
While it is not difficult to prove this fact, it is difficult to convince people to believe it and to be guided by it.
As Thucydides famously wrote in his history of the Peloponnesian War, “So little pains do most people take in the investigation of truth, accepting readily the first story that comes to hand.”
Let me make it clear from the beginning that this is not a “hit piece.” The Constitution should be no “respecter of persons” and should be upheld as the supreme law of the land, period. Moreover, this article is meant to clarify, not vilify.
Unfortunately for the Constitution, we’ve already seen a man elected to the presidency who many believe wasn’t a natural born citizen: Barack Obama.
That doesn’t mean that we should abandon the natural-born citizen eligibility requirement. As with any other error, once discovered we can take steps to prevent its reoccurrence.
As for Ramaswamy, although he refuses to directly answer questions critical to determining whether he is a natural-born citizen, the public record provides enough information to make the call without his help.

I’ve been saying since day one he’s not a natural born Citizen.
Neither was Obammy
Yes. We know that.
Ramaswamy was a US citizen at birth, and no court will require more. Maybe they should, but they won’t.
Obama was not a US citizen at birth, and I personally doubt that he has ever been a US citizen.
And soon, the “anyone born one foot inside the fence” gang will be here to vociferously insist that this guy is wrong wrong wrong, even though he lays it out clearly.
Ramaswamy was born in Cincinnati to Indian immigrant parents. He graduated from Harvard College with a bachelor’s in biology and later earned a J.D. from Yale Law School.

Maybe you can make a case that they SHOULD rule otherwise, but that doesn’t really matter.
Thus, presidence
A recent thread on Free Republic on this very subject had over 200 replies.
Multiple Freepers presented evidence to support their point of view, and then argued back and forth on various aspects of their viewpoints.
We will see how many replies This Thread gets.
Could you imagine what this would do for the Indian-American relationship?
My god, they would LOVE HIM. India works much differently than the US on this matter. They would be open to strong trade agreements that back on their near-chinese-level of slave labor, dystopian socialscapes and near-Nigerian levels of fraudsters.
It would change the global landscape. Take that how you will.
We do not have his parents date of naturalization (citizenship by way of legal residence followed by the immigration process of becoming citizens).
Without that it is speculation either way if he is or isn’t a “natural born” citizen.
“not constitutionally eligible to be president.”
Where in the h*** does the constitution say what a Natural Born Citizen is ? It doesn’t. But that won’t stop this idiocy from being regurgitated on FR every now and then.
This is correct.
Maybe they should, but they won’t.
This is also correct.
Obama was not a US citizen at birth, and I personally doubt that he has ever been a US citizen.
I don't know if this is correct. We can't get good evidence of exactly where he was born. He might have 14th amendment citizenship. Might.
Maybe you can make a case that they SHOULD rule otherwise, but that doesn’t really matter.
And this is all true.
THANK YOU...
I KEEP PREACHING THIS-—BUT SEEMS MANY DO NOT UNDERSTAND——
NIKKI HALEY ALSO IS NOT ELIGIBLE.
IMO-—BOTH ARE CREATING A FRAUD BY TAKING ANY “CAMPAIGN DONATIONS”.
Exactly tgis guy’s a total fraud.
