Those laws are only applicable to Republicans.

Doesn’t the New York Times make that determination?

Or is it the Washington Post?

Just as was predicted. The dreaded ‘BIRTHER’ Label because she is Black, uh Brown, uh Tan and cannot be questioned.

Ehh. Throw (stuff) on the wall. See what sticks.

This whole notion of Kamala not being eligible is crap. Everyone knows it. But if it adds doubt to someone - then fine. Go for it.

A simple “That’s racist”, and the Left has finished dealing with that issue.

From now on it’ll be “We’ve answered that question. Next question?”.

Jenna Ellis Is absolutely correct.

To be a Natural Born Citizen, one must be born in U.S. soil and both parents must be American citizens at the time of their birth.

Harris does not meet that qualification.

A question of Constitutional interpretation is hardly a “conspiracy theory”

"Donald Trump's campaign lawyer promotes 'birther' conspiracy theory that Kamala Harris is NOT eligible to be VP because her parents were immigrants".

Stupid argument that never worked for Obama and won't pass the smell test for Harris............

They need to focus on her job history rather than some stupid theory about her eligibility to run for office.....

There’s no conspiracy here. THe facts of her birth and parentage are well known.

The legal question is, “What is a Naturally Born Citizen (NBC)?” and “Is Harris an NBC?”

This gets you into philosophy, because the political and judicial process, coupled with some 240 years of removal from the initial sentiment when the term was written, make the answer to the question legalistic, political, and philosophical.

In other words, a packed court will say Kamala is fine. The current court might say Kamala is fine. Logic, and historical analysis, and the intent of the Founders will likely say she is not.

Which approach is the “right” one here?

My take: She is not according to original intent. She is not philosophically in terms of making sure that unlike Obama, “She’s from around here” and working for the home team.

But, looking at it tacticly, I think she’ll get away with it. All that will matter is birthright citizenship going forward.

“conspiracy theory”

Doesn’t a conspiracy theory require some sort of imagined conspiracy? Or is the phrase just another term for Wrongthink?

'It's an open question, and one I think Harris should answer so the American people know for sure she is eligible,' Ellis told ABC News.

And Harris will say, "Of course I'm a natural-born citizen. The 14th Amendment says so."

Then what? Without a definitive decision by the courts then it's just the same kind of birther claims that was tried against Obama. How'd that work out?

Article 1; Section 2 of the United States Constitution is clear:

No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty-five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.

She was born a citizen of Jamaica, not of the United States. But of course, the constitution doesn’t mean anything anymore. The courts tear it to shreds and ignore its precepts. The media won’t report the truth. So in the end, it’s a fight we cannot win.

Birther theory?! Neither of her parents were American citizens at the time of her birth, this is undisputed fact. She may be a citizen, but she ain’t no natural born citizen.

Get ready for a spate of interminably long posts adamantly declaring her ineligible. Also accusing anyone who doesn’t join in on the tilting at windmills with the advocates of ineligibility of being an enemy of the Constitution, dupes, librals, ad infinitum ad nauseum.

As we’ve seen for over a decade with Obama none of this eligibility crap is going to fly. It’s pure distraction. Possibly by false flag demonrats.

Not a good idea...even if they're correct. Osama Obama established,beyond doubt,that "natural born citizen" doesn't apply to Rats.Of course he did so through dishonest means but that doesn't matter.

As a result doing so makes him look small...petty...and even desperate

Sounds like they are conflating a lot of words: natural born citizen = native born citizen = citizen

They are not all equal and mean different things, but the article seems to aim for lowest common denominator: citizen.
