It's Official: Bobby Jindal Can't Run For President. He's Not A Natural Born Citizen!

[Wicked Jester]

Jindal is a Hindu dog. He must not be allowed to rule USA.

May Allah guide Pakistan in its war against the Hindu dogs of India.

Allah hu akbar.

And may I run into you on the street one day and kick your sorry ass up and down it, PUNK!

 

[Vast LWC]

Look, I am stating the obvious that Jindal is not constitutionally qualified under Article 2 Section 1. His parents didn't meet the 5 year residency period to make Bobby a Natural Born Citizen.

There is no "5 year residency period" for parents of a person born inside the United States.

You have been mis-informed,

I've been wondering about this and it is confirmed that he can't run even though he was born in Baton Rouge, La. This will raise questions on Obama when the presidential race heats up again because a lot of people wanted Jindal to run. This is probably why McCain didn't choose him as his VP because it presented problems. You can be born in the USA and not be a Natural Born Citizen.
The 14th amendment does not speak of Natural Born Citizen; rather it says Naturalized Citizen which is a Huge Difference from Article II Section I of the Constitution eligibility Clause.
Read Senate Resolution 511 (April 2008) which defines Natural Born Citizen as one born of two parent of American Citizenship.
If Jindal’s Parent were not American Citizens at the time of Bobby’s birth then Jindal cannot meet the Constitutions eligibility clause thus he cannot be President.



Is Governor Bobby Jindal A Natural Born Citizen? He's Not My President?

Amar and Raj Jindal are the Punjabi-born parents of Governor Bobby Jindal. Raj Jindal’s maiden name was Raj Gupta. According to nola.com:

In fact, it was Gupta’s career move that brought the newly married couple to Louisiana.

Gupta was accepted as a graduate assistant at Louisiana State University when she was pregnant with Bobby. Her husband, who at the time was an assistant professor at a Chandigarh engineering college, was concerned about her moving overseas in her condition. LSU offered her one month of maternity leave if she joined the program, a deal the Jindals agreed was too good to turn down.

They moved in January 1971. Bobby was born soon after, in Baton Rouge.

Therefore, it seems reasonable to assume that at the time of Bobby Jindal’s birth, his parents were not U.S. citizens. In fact they could not have been U.S. Citizens at the time because citizenship in the United States almost always requires 5 years of residency in the United States before qualifying. It is clear that the Jindal’s were only here for a few months before Bobby Jindal was born. Therefore Bobby Jindal is not a Natural Born Citizen and does not qualify under Article II, Section I of the U.S. Constitution to be President of the United States.

Isn't it cute to watch him try to throw the baby out with the bathwater?

Can you imagine Pres Obama followed by Pres Jindal? I would predict some heads exploding over that.

Very doubtful that you will see another democratic President enjoy what time you have left.

oh man, not THIS shit again

if someone is born in this country they ARE a native born citizen
no ifs, ands, or buts

Article 2 Section 1 Clause 5 in the constitution to be president doesn't mention Native Born Citizen.

Here is the clause:

No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty-five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.

Title 8 of the U.S. Code fills in the gaps left by the Constitution.

Section 1401 defines the following as people who are "citizens of the United States at birth:"

• Anyone born inside the United States
• Any Indian or Eskimo born in the United States, provided being a citizen of the U.S. does not impair the person's status as a citizen of the tribe
• Any one born outside the United States, both of whose parents are citizens of the U.S., as long as one parent has lived in the U.S.
• Any one born outside the United States, if one parent is a citizen and lived in the U.S. for at least one year and the other parent is a U.S. national
• Any one born in a U.S. possession, if one parent is a citizen and lived in the U.S. for at least one year
• Any one found in the U.S. under the age of five, whose parentage cannot be determined, as long as proof of non-citizenship is not provided by age 21
• Any one born outside the United States, if one parent is an alien and as long as the other parent is a citizen of the U.S. who lived in the U.S. for at least five years (with military and diplomatic service included in this time)
• A final, historical condition: a person born before 5/24/1934 of an alien father and a U.S. citizen mother who has lived in the U.S.

Obviously, as per the very first portion of the section, both Jindal and Obama are in fact "Natural Born Citizens".

But they don't have american sounding names....so, they must be stopped...somehow.

Dude, just give it a rest already.....Enough is enough.

This birfer shit is gettin' old......Besides, Obama's dug his own hole. He's fully proven to be an inept moron. You don't need this ridiculous shit to get his sorry ass out of office. He's done, he won't be relected.

CHRIST!

WHAT 5 year residency period? Are you saying that there is no such thing as anchor babies? Deport away, laddies.....load them kids up and ship 'em out!

You have been mis-informed,

No, you are mis-informed. Jindals parents were not born in the United States. They came over here on Visas and they had to be here for 5 years before they could become naturalized. Bobby or Piyush Jindal was born before only months after they arrived before the 5 year span was up.

the time to be naturalized has no bearing on Bobby being born a natural born citizen

Wow, throwing a rising star under the bus as a means to get to Obama. You're desperate aren't you?

This is about his obsession with Palin.

 

[Charles_Main]

Nope. He was born in the USA. He's an American and eligible to run for president.

Clearly you need to read the law sweet heart. Technically because neither of his parents were US citizens, He does not meet the criteria as written.

where does it say that someone born in the USA has to have Citizens as parents before they are considered "natural born"?

Yes. He. Does.

It would appear there is no hard answer. It has been debated in the past.

One example

1875 opinion of Supreme Court Chief Justice Waite in Minor v. Happersett

In his majority opinion 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." Minor v. Happersett, 88 U.S. 162 (1875).

So basically it comes down to whether or not a court thinks the Citizenship of the Parents matters when the person was born here.

which says that someone born IN the USA is a natural born citizen
regardless of the citizenship status of the parents, the only exception would be if the parents were foreign diplomats

So it would seem, but if you read on about all the court cases over this issue. you will see that courts have ruled both ways in the past. Though most of the rulings against Calling someone natural Born when their parents are not citizens seem to have been made fighting blacks getting citizenship after the Civil war.

I Think He is eligible and this is all just a smoke screen to talk about Obama, but that's just me.
