Talk about Russian “collusion!”
Professor Walsh — “Presumably voters can decide about allegiance.”
The voters failed that simple test in 2008 and again in 2012.
The republican party needs to state now that Kamala Harris is not a natural born citizen and get this adjudicated before the next election
Maybe you are thinking of Kenya?
Ending dual citizenship is a must. If you are a US citizen you can not be a citizen of any other country.
This issue needs to be kept on the front burner.
Thanks for this post.
wow, one of the heros! ping!
The secretaries of state, in all states, should enforce eligibility requirements on their respective ballots.
No doubt about it!
Nancy Pelosi sent letters to every state save one, that obama hd been chosen by the DNC and met the constitutional requirements to hold the office. Hawwii’s was pulled back and replaced with a certificate that merely said the DNC had selected him.
SHE KNEW!!!
He embodied the very danger that John Jay foresaw when he wrote is famous letter.
After over 24 decades, an inability to find a “Natural Born Citizen” qualified to serve as president of the United States suggests more a failure of the Nation’s citizenry rather than a defect of the Constitution.
He’s from both places????
“”Professor Walsh writes that the original Constitution is not perfect and it is time to change its actual text.”

It’s already part of the Constitution. It’s called the amendment process. Thumbs up for the Article V, Convention of States process.
As much as I don’t like McCain, I think that if both parents are US citizens, and are overseas while in service to the US Government (maybe restrict it to military) (in the case of McCain, his father was stationed at the Panama Canal Zone serving the US Navy), the natural born requirement should be met.
In the case of Obama, his father (assuming it’s Obama Sr, not Frank Marshal Davis) was a British subject, thus only one parent was a US Citizen. Plus Obama’s stay in Indonesia brings his citizenship into question as well (did Stanley Dunham renounce her US citizenship while in Indonesia). Thus Obama’s occupation of the White House was clearly in violation of the Constitution.
Indeed, an excellent point!
The people who want to remove the natural born citizen clause don’t have patience with the (Constitutional) Amendment V process. They’d have it done with an Internet poll if they could get away with it.
Pres Chester Arthur?
Never heard such a thing. And the Wiki seems to cover it as just a malicious rumor, whether Ireland or Canada.
My only question would be his father’s citizenship status.
Exactly. Didn’t stop 0.
