(I’ve been told that Obama’s mother who was born in Kansas was still ineligible to pass on NBC to Varack.
She was too young when she gave birth.)
And that would be true according to the immigration laws at that time.
Possible Secretary of Defense pick?
Tulsi will be Secretary of State
She will stab Trump in the back, first chance she gets. She is 100% deep state.
Check and see if immigration laws pertain to a Natural Born Citizen as Stanley Ann was.
I keep telling you NBCers that as you go to such great lengths to redefine what an NBC is, remind yourself that Trump’s mother was not born in the US. Therefore - using your twisted logic - Trump was and is ineligible.
Let me also remind you that you’re a racist. You people openly make up distorted NBC rules so as to eliminate brown people.
She’s definitely more in line with some conservative thought than many republicans, but making her a VP could set a shaky precedent for future administrations. Democrats would no doubt find a way to subvert the act.
Rather than accepting what you’ve been told, check it out yourself with the Immigration & Nationality act, Section 3.
I look at her like a union representative who tells their people that if they work hard and the company does well, they will do better than concentrating of political ideology and redistribution. Sort of like the labor unions that I worked with in Japan.
I love Trump, but his record at appointments is just awful.
While I do that you check out US v Wong Kim Ark
Under the 14th Amendment’s Naturalization Clause and the Supreme Court case of United States v. Wong Kim Ark, 169 US. 649, anyone born on U.S. soil and subject to its jurisdiction is a natural born citizen, regardless of parental citizenship. This type of citizenship is referred to as birthright citizenship.
I admire governor Noem, but exactly which additional pack of voters she will bring? MAGA voters are already in because of Trump. Tulsi could bring some additional centrist voters, is my guess. The election will NOT BE A LANDSLIDE in 2024. It will be a very close election, with just a few thousand votes purple states making the difference. That is what happened in 2020.
I will abide by whoever Trump team decides is most beneficial. You bet I will be voting Trump/whoever. Losing election removes any power to further Trump’s agenda. As coach Lombardi used to say, “Winning is not everything, it is the only thing”.
“Under the 14th Amendment’s Naturalization Clause and the Supreme Court case of United States v. Wong Kim Ark, 169 US. 649, anyone born on U.S. soil and subject to its jurisdiction is a natural born citizen, regardless of parental citizenship.”
Nope, the Supreme Court did not rule on natural born citizenship in that case. Don’t have the time to explain that and it has been done by people here more qualified than me.
According to your logic, the ten million illegals who just entered the country could have a baby and it would be a natural born citizen. That would mean natural born has no signification so why would it be a qualification to be president? Do you really think the writers of the Constitution thought it would be necessary for the president to be a citizen?

The writers of the Constitution had no idea what they were doing. Their vague writings were later amended. Still didn’t clarify what a NBC is. So SC decisions and hundreds of lower court decisions apply now.
Add this all up and guess what? ANY US citizen could be president. No matter where they were born. No matter where there parents were born.
See Trump, Kamala, Obama, McCain, Cruz and etc. as proof.
T. Cruz for VP and to be future President
I agree. If we abandon the natural born citizenship clause now, it will be exploited by others who may come after Mrs. Gabbard who may not share her political convictions, and expose us all to the greatest threat to the Republic the founders and framers of the US Constitution knew well, feared most, and warned us all against: the loss of our freedoms and liberties not from an external military threat but from political subversion from within our own political system.
When you stop and realize virtually all executive power in this country is held by one person as the commander in chief of all of this nation’s armed forces and also take into account the vast increase in speed and destructive firepower modern weapons now have over their 18th Century counterparts, you begin to realize just how important this requirement has become in today’s turbulently shrinking world, and how important it is to apply the narrowest of definitions to the “natural born citizen” requirement rather than standing on the threshold of abandoning it altogether — forever.
There is no absolute, failsafe, clause or provision that will protect the Republic from just such a fate, but if we weaken this provision now, that fate will come sooner rather than later, and future generations of Americans will look back at this time and call out our names, giving us the blame.
That’s good to know, because if she ended up on the ballot with him, I’d have to sit home Election Day, because I would never vote for her, or any other a-hole to be one heartbeat away from the Presidency. I’d want no part of that.
(T. Cruz for VP and to be future President)
Ted Cruz is not Constitutionally eligible for the vice presidency or presidency. He is not a natural born Citizen. He was born in Calgary, Canada.
Why? She’s not an Article 2 Section 1 Clause 5 natural born Citizen eligible for the vice presidency.
This has mattered, when?
That’s true, but her father was Samoan. Tulsi, herself was born in Leloaloa, American Samoa.

You’re completely insane. The founders wanted a president to have sole allegiance to be president and not have allegiances to foreign governments, which all anchor babies do. Matter of fact when George Washington was framing the presidential qualifications clause to the Constitution, John Jay, the first Supreme Court chief justice wrote this letter to George:
https://founders.archives.gov/documents/Washington/04-05-02-0251
New York 25 July 1787
Dear Sir
I was this morning honored with your Excellency’s Favor of the 22d Inst: & immediately delivered the Letter it enclosed to Commodore Jones, who being detained by Business, did not go in the french Packet, which sailed Yesterday.
Permit me to hint, whether it would not be wise & seasonable to provide a strong check to the admission of Foreigners into the administration of our national Government, and to declare expressly that the Command in chief of the american army shall not be given to, nor devolved on, any but a natural born Citizen.
Mrs Jay is obliged by your attention, and assures You of her perfect Esteem & Regard—with similar Sentiments the most cordial and sincere I remain Dear Sir Your faithful Friend & Servt
John Jay
