I wish to NOTIFY you that the bona-fides of four Republican Candidates to be President is hereby DISPUTED. It is claimed that the following persons do NOT meet the United States Constitutional requirement that one be a "Natural-Born Citizen" in order to be President under Article II, Sec. 1.
I am disputing the bona-fides of:
Marco Rubio - NOT an NBC. He was born in the U.S., however his parents were un-naturalized "permanent resident" Cuban citizens when he was born.
Ted Cruz - NOT an NBC. He was born in Canada to a Cuban father and American mother who may have natualized as a Canadian.
Bobby Jindal - NOT an NBC. He was born in the U.S. to parents who were un-naturalized citizens of Indiaa at the time of Bobby Jindal's bitth.
Rick Santorum - NOT an NBC. He was born in the U.S. to a father who was an Italian citizen not naturalized at the time of Rick Santorum's birth.

You are too funny. :)
You and me both. When you find a constitutional amendment in any of that dreck you posted, let me know.
“laws of naturalization” are acts of Congress!
A Naturalization Certificate is issued to a person who became a U.S. citizen after 18 years of age upon completion of a process.
A Certificate of Citizenship is issued to a person born outside the United States who derived or acquired U.S. citizenship through a U.S. citizen parent.
The citizenship of both is by Congressional Act.
Oct. 27, 1972 the retention requirements of Pub.L. 82–414 § 301 were amended to require two years physical presence between ages of 14 and 28 years old (Pub. L. 92–584 § 1,3; 86 Stat. 1289;)
Oct. 10, 1978 the retention requirements were repealed (Pub. L. 95–432 § 1,3; 92 Stat. 1046)
They were BIRTH CERTIFICATES.
Right but the sentence in question is talking about the bona fides of four men, hence the need for the plural of “to be”.
So if an act of Congress says that people born here and who are subject to the jurisdiction of the U.S. are citizens at birth then that means they aren't natural-born citizens.
I’ve cited specific statutes. Here a link for one of them:

The others are available on the same website.
Are you claiming my statement - “A Certificate of Citizenship is issued to a person born outside the United States who derived or acquired U.S. citizenship through a U.S. citizen parent.” - is not true?
The 14th amendment did not repeal article II.
Calm down and look up the law.
By the way your cite of the 14th Amend. is not on point in regard to Cruz.
A fact that you wouldn't think you would have to tell someone who is discussing this topic.
