Need the supremes to rule not some lower court. If they don't do it then the supremes. Natural born citizen is two citizen parents born here, That is what the founders said. A shitty lower court has said otherwise. It's quite a danger to our nations security.
In 1875, Chief Justice Waite, in the voting-rights case Minor v. Happersett, stated:
"The Constitution does not, in words, say who shall be natural-born citizens. Resort must be had elsewhere to ascertain that. At common-law, with the nomenclature of which the framers of the Constitution were familiar, it was never doubted that all children born in a country of parents who were its citizens became themselves, upon their birth, citizens also. These were natives, or natural-born citizens, as distinguished from aliens or foreigners. Some authorities go further and include as citizens children born within the jurisdiction without reference to the citizenship of their parents. As to this class there have been doubts, but never as to the first."[62]
Correct. And if that child eventually wins the electoral college, it will be a function of the version of democracy that exists in this country. If that’s who the people fairly elect, those are the rules as they are today in terms of eligibility for the presidency.
Let the Democrats continue to be the party of banning eligible candidates from ballots as they “defend Democracy.”
The real problem isn't that the foreign kid born in the US can run for President, it's that they are automatically American citizens. Before easy world wide travel, this wasn't a big deal. With open borders and the popularity of pregnancy tours to the US to get an anchor baby automatic US citizenship, that rule needs to be changed.

If his parents were there at a military base etc. it counts IIRC
If one of his parents are american hes american at birth
Not talking simple citizenship status.
If hes a citizen at birth hes a natural born citizen as opposed to a naturalized citizen
Everyone knew the vid was a fake.
So any despot can sire a child ship his pregnant woman here drop a kid and run them for president. That's not how it's supposed to be!
But that's how it is. Need a new Amendment.
