Has the Writer Researched the Meaning of “natural born Citizen?
“YOUNG” AND “ATTRACTIVE” DOES NOT EQUATE TO “ELIGIBLE”
The Post & Email
Open letter from 'Bill' to Ms. Parker in response to her recent article posted in the Chicago Tribune
1/7/2012
Excerpt:
"Sen. Marco Rubio was born in the U.S., but documentation has surfaced demonstrating that his father did not become a U.S. citizen until after Marco's birth
The following is my response to an editorial promoting Sen. Marco Rubio as a vice-presidential candidate:
Dear Ms Parker;
With reference to your thoughtful column appearing today in the Chicago Tribune, please review the attached open letter (http://www.thepostemail.com/2012/01/...hi-of-georgia/) from Sharon Rondeau of the Post & Email News.
You may want to reconsider touting Senator Rubio for VP since his Cuban parents were not US Citizens at his birth; he can never be a natural born citizen as required for POTUS or VPOTUS under the US Constitution. The good Senator is well aware of this problem.
He is ineligible; there are no exceptions to this Constitutional requirement. Being a US Citizen is insufficient to be eligible for our two highest offices, because the founders wished to prevent a commander in chief with a divided allegiance, very important to a country emerging from a long war with the strongest empire in the world, the British empire. There have been efforts to amend the Constitution but each has gained little traction.
SCOTUS in Minor v Happersett in 1875 defined NBC as born here of two US citizen parents. This ruling has never been amended or re-adjudicated. NBC means what the founders intended. The Senate unanimously concurred in 2008 with SR 511, Clinton and Obama co-sponsoring."
