Born on US soil to US parents in the US military...this is ridiculous.
So...does it rule him out?
Total bravo sierra. Another of Hillary’s ploys.
Crimeny, the NYT is throwing everything but the kitchen sink at Mad John, my goodness, the smear didn’t work so now they are reduced to casting doubt on his ability to be President?
Pinche’s business is bleeding money, and they choose to sink to the gutter snipe stuff? Any other business and the shareholders would revolt and throw Pinche’ Sulzberg out on his toosh....
Great, so now we can get a conservative! Know its only a wish..
Sounds like a good enough reason to call for a brokered convention. Lets take that ball and run with it.
BTW, by daughter is in exactly the same situation, born in England while I was stationed there on U.S. Air Force duty. She has both a British birth certificate and a “Record of Birth Abroad” issued by the State Department in London.
Nice picture. Might that be the NY Times editorial staff in his spectacles reflection?
Typical. This is war. The left plays by its own rules.
I do think that eventually we will have to change that law SOME HOW! Like if Gov. Arnold S. had turned out to be a TRUE conservative, we could have run him as president. As it is we can’t. Maybe we need an amendment. As it is we have a Barack Hussein Obama running and that sounds pretty foreign. LOL
That’ll also end the Presidential aspirations of the good Senator from New York, seeing as how lizards are hatched, not ‘born’.
The 14th Amendment defines citizenship this way: “All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.” But even this does not get specific enough. As usual, the Constitution provides the framework for the law, but it is the law that fills in the gaps.
Currently, Title 8 of the U.S. Code fills in those gaps. Section 1401 defines the following as people who are “citizens of the United States at birth:”
Anyone born inside the United States
Any Indian or Eskimo born in the United States, provided being a citizen of the U.S. does not impair the person’s status as a citizen of the tribe
Any one born outside the United States, both of whose parents are citizens of the U.S., as long as one parent has lived in the U.S.
Any one born outside the United States, if one parent is a citizen and lived in the U.S. for at least one year and the other parent is a U.S. national
Any one born in a U.S. possession, if one parent is a citizen and lived in the U.S. for at least one year Any one found in the U.S. under the age of five, whose parentage cannot be determined, as long as proof of non-citizenship is not provided by age 21
Any one born outside the United States, if one parent is an alien and as long as the other parent is a citizen of the U.S. who lived in the U.S. for at least five years (with military and diplomatic service included in this time) A final, historical condition: a person born before 5/24/1934 of an alien father and a U.S. citizen mother who has lived in the U.S.
Anyone falling into these categories is considered natural-born, and is eligible to run for President or Vice President. These provisions allow the children of military families to be considered natural-born, for example.
An absolute non-issue. Waste of trees; bigger waste of bandwidth.
You too, can be lied to and dumbed down for only $2.00 a copy. WAIT! THERE”S MORE!
It will get worse. They aren’t going to stop.
If that is what it takes to get McLames sorry amnesty ass off the ticket I’m all for it.
Using the logic of the NYT’s my father wasn’t a US citizen as he was born in Arizona in 1907 five years before it became a state. It would have come as a big surprise to him.
As we aren’t covered by a constitution, but a “living document” that means whatever liberals say it means, maybe republican candidates have to have been born on Mars.
