"Mitt Romney not a natural-born citizen?
Some point to his father's birth in Mexico, grandparents citizenship - Jerome Corsi @ WND
Amid ongoing challenges to Barack Obama’s presidential eligibility, some have raised questions about the constitutional status of the leading candidate for the Republican nomination, Gov. Mitt Romney, contending he was born in Mexico or that his father was not an American citizen at the time of his birth.
However, the available evidence shows that even under the strictest interpretation of Article 2, Section 1 of the Constitution, Romney is a natural-born citizen, according to Article 2, Section 1.
The questions have been raised because Romney’s grandparents went to Mexico in the 1800s, where Mitt Romney’s father, George W. Romney, was born, July 8, 1907...........................
According to a Romney family genealogy prepared by the London, England, LDS Temple, Romney’s grandparents – Gaskell Romney and Anna Amelia Pratt Romney – were polygamous Mormons who fled the United States when the Mormon church disavowed polygamy. As the genealogy points out, polygamy was a federal crime in the U.S., but it was allowed in Mexico.
The grandparents were even married in Mexico, although each of them was born to a U.S. citizen father in U.S. sovereign territory................
After the Mexican Revolution broke out in 1910, the Mormon colonies began to be endangered, starting in 1911-1912 by raids from marauders. In response, Romney’s grandparents fled Mexico, taking their 5-year-old son, George W. Romney, with them. They settled first in Oakley, Idaho, and finally in Salt Lake City, Utah.
When George W. Romney ran for president in 1968, Charles Gordon, a counsel with the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service and an Adjunct Professor of Law at the Georgetown Law Center, addressed the eligibility issue in an article in the Winter 1968 issue of the Maryland Law Review.......................
Cdr. Charles Kerchner(ret) commented at WND: "Mitt Romney's father George Romney born in Mexico was a Citizen of the U.S. at birth via his citizen parents by the "jus sanguinis" laws of the U.S. going back to the founding of our nation, thus he did not have to file naturalization papers. He was a citizen at birth. Rick Santorum's father Aldo was not a Citizen at birth since he was born in Italy to Italian parents and thus would have to file naturalization papers at some point after he arrived in the USA. Rick has yet to produce copies of those papers. Repeated queries to his staff yields no answers, let alone producing copies of the naturalization papers that it was reported in WND.com that his family says they have. A follow up story is needed on that earlier WND.com story about Rick Santorum's father's exact citizenship status as to did he really naturalize, and if so, where, when, and how."
Cdr. Kerchner(ret) also commented at the Post & Email's report on the Mitt Romney Ballot Challenge saying in part: "People who are challenging Mitt Romney would have to prove that both his grandfather Gaskell and his grandmother Anna renounced and/or totally lost their birthright U.S. Citizenship when they lived as expatriates in Mexico. The U.S. Nationality Act of 1940 says they did not. That law was enacted 7 years before Mitt was born in Detroit MI in 1947.
See my report and analysis of the citizenship status of Mitt Romney. I do not believe there is any doubt that Mitt Romney is a natural born Citizen, whose foreign born father had two U.S. Citizen parents. But there are still questions out there about Rick Santorum who Italian born father did not have U.S. Citizen parents. Santorum has yet to produce copies of the naturalization papers for his father Aldo Santorum, born 1923 in Italy, which was, I believe in a part of Italy which was part of the Austrian Empire at the time. ... George Romney was not eligible, but I believe the facts show Mitt is: .................................
Barack Hussein Obama is NOT a “natural born Citizen of the United States” and is NOT constitutionally eligible to be the President and Commander in Chief of our military. Obama’s father was a foreign national who was never a U.S. Citizen, not even an immigrant to the USA, not even a permanent resident of the USA. The major media refuses to talk about this and many other buried topics and history regarding Obama."
