Monica Crowley: Obama Was Never Vetted Before Attaining The Presidency In 2008

Can anyone claim the media did its job vetting him? Even at FOX they never had the debate that he was not an NBC. His birth certificate only proves that.

His birth certificate proves he was born in the US and a citizen at birth. Which is a natural born citizen.

An NBC is a person born in the US with 2 American parents. This covers around 90% of US citizens

A person born in the US to 2 American parents is definitely a natural born citizen. So is a person born in the US to two non-citizens. As natural born status follows place of birth.

According to you not how the rule was intended. They based it on Vattel.

According to you.
  • At the time the Constitution was written, there was no English translation of Vattel
  • There is no evidence that Vattel was ever referenced for the term "Natural Born Citizen"
  • At no point in our history has anyone presumed that a natural born citizen requires 2 citizen parents- until Birthers created that definition in 2008.

Tell me why they added and subject to the jurisdiction thereof if all one needs is to be born on US soil. If your Mexican citizen then you and your children are under their jurisdiction not that of the US

'subject to the jurisdiction' because at the time of the 14th Amendment, besides diplomats and their children, there were American Indians who were born in the United States but were not subject to the jurisdiction of the United States- they lived in quasi sovereign Indian nations.

Children born of diplomats in the United States are not within the jurisdiction of the United States- and for instance cannot be removed by Child Protective Services.

Children born of illegal immigrants citizens of Russia or Mexico or Poland in the United States, are U.S. citizens- natural born citizens- and can be removed by Child Protective Services. And their parents can be arrested.

At the time the Constittuion was written there as an English translation of the Law of Nations by Vattel. But it didn't include the term 'natural born citizen'. That wouldn't be added until the 1790s, and bizarrely used the word 'indigines' as its basis. Which means 'indigienous'. Not 'natural born citizen.

Its a physical impossibility for Vattel's law of nations to have been the basis of the founders understanding of the term "natural born".

According to you not how the rule was intended. They based it on Vattel. Also a correct reading of the 14th amendment indicates that just being born on US soil does not make one a citizen. It was written to make the slaves citizens not illegal aliens

Section 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

Tell me why they added and subject to the jurisdiction thereof if all one needs is to be born on US soil. If your Mexican citizen then you and your children are under their jurisdiction not that of the US

So all Mexican citizens and their children in the US have diplomatic immunity, putting them beyond the jurisdiction of US laws?

If no, then your argument just went 'kaput'.

Nope they are still under Mexican jurisdiction and our laws require they be returned there.

We have a proud history of executing foreign citizens- most recently a Mexican in Texas.

Sure seems like he was withing the full jurisdiction when he was executed to me.

The word translated into 'natural born citizen' in 1797 was 'indigènes'. Which means 'indigenous.' Not 'natural born citizen'. The word for citizen in French is citoyen. Not 'indigènes'.

The term 'natural born citizen' didn't appear in any capacity in any translation of The Law of Nations until the 1790s. AFTER the constitution was written. Cause precedes effect. It doesn't follow it by nearly a decade.

English common law however, did include 'natural born'. And it was based exclusively on place of birth. English common law is the only plausible source for the founders on the meaning of 'natural born'. And of course, the most logical, as it was the legal tradition that they were most familiar with.

And of course, the US law mirrors the English law at the time almost exactly. As the English only allowed natural born subjects to hold certain offices at the time of the writing of the Constitution. With 'natural born' being those born under the king's authority.

Following place of birth. Not parentage.

We can arrest them.

Then they're subject to the jurisdiction of the US.

So if everyone here is under our jurisdiction why even add it? These people are under dual jurisdiction. The US does not recognize dual citizenship

Because everyone here isn't under our jurisdiction. Diplomats for example aren't. Heads of state and their families aren't. Invading armies aren't.

Thus, no child they bore while in the US would be subject to our jurisdiction. And couldn't be natural born US citizens.

Mexicans are subject to US jurisdiction. And both of Obama's parents were at the time of his birth. Meaning he's a natural born citizen at birth. Even if both his parents weren't citizens.

Already addressed-
Diplomats- and their children born here- are not subject to the jurisdiction of the United States- nor were American Indians who were not taxed(living on sovereign land).

The United States has complete jurisdiction over foreign nationals while they are in our country- we can arrest them, imprison them, eject them and even execute them.

pelled out the intent of the 14th Amendment by stating:

"Every person born within the limits of the United States, and subject to their jurisdiction, is by virtue of natural law and national law a citizen of the United States. This will not, of course, include persons born in the United States who are foreigners, aliens, who belong to the families of ambassadors or foreign ministers accredited to the Government of the United States, but will include every other class of persons. It settles the great question of citizenship and removes all doubt as to what persons are or are not citizens of the United States. This has long been a great desideratum in the jurisprudence and legislation of this country."

"[A foreigner in the United States] has a right to the protection of the laws; but he is not a citizen in the ordinary acceptance of the word...

These are quotes from Senators at the time of its passing
