What a stupid article. If you can’t be a citizen unless your parents are citizens already, I guess no one is a citizen, unless maybe all your ancestors lived here when the Constitution was adopted.

It’s not only stupid but pointless, Nikki Haley has no chance of winning the nomination and trying to make this argument against her is pointless because no one will buy into it.

You need to read up on the definition of “natural born citizen”. A natural born citizen is one who cannot have citizenship rights in any other country at birth. That is why both parents need to be citizens. This was to prevent anyone from the Presidency that had allegiance to another country. If you think of yourself as a hyphenated American, then you are not natural born.

John McCain was born in Panama, to parents who were not a citizen of that country. Therefore he must have been a Panamanian citizen?

If born in the US, the person is a native born citizen.

Constitution requires President to be a natural born citizen, wherein parent is US citizen.
