Three little words: NATURAL BORN CITIZEN...

2 comments:

  1. A Natural Born citizen is simply someone who was born in the USA, regardless of the number of parents who were citizens. Natural Born was used at the time like Ohio-born, which means born in Ohio and does not require that the parents were Ohio citizens.

    Natural Born was the equivalent of Native Born today. As late as World War I, men who registered for the draft were asked whether they were citizens, and then if they were citizens whether they were Natural Born or Naturalized.

    The same applied at the time of the writing of the Constitution.

  2. Natural born means two american parents and born in America! Obama is not natural born, he is a native born American. This means that he was "naturalized" at birth. Much like all the anchor babies from illegal aliens. Obama is a British subject according to British law (The British Nationality Act of 1981) because his father was an Arab Kenyan when Kenya was ruled by Britain. The natural born clause is to remove all doubt as to where loyalty might lay with the Commander in Chief!

    Chew on this:
    the actual text of the THIRD CONGRESS in 1795 states, "...children of citizens [plural, i.e. two parents] of the United States...shall be considered citizens of the United States; Provided That the right of citizenship shall not descend to persons, whose fathers have never been resident in the United States..."
