My father was born to illegal Irish immigrants here in the U.S. Yet, he's still recognized as a NATURAL BORN U.S. CITIZEN. His pregnancy was hard for his birth mother. She was a Rh neg woman. If you're familiar with Rh- blood types and female reproduction, you know their bodies recognize the fetus as an invading symbiote. Her body literally tries to destroy the fetus. He and his birth mother barely survived the trek over here from war torn Ireland, circa 1950. He was given up for adoption, partly because he was so sick and they were so poor and couldn't afford the expensive treatments, but also because they were turned in by the hospital. They were subsequently forced to leave the U.S. and return to Ireland. So, they put him up for adoption here in the U.S. and left him behind for another family to adopt him that could give him the life he deserved. I can't even imagine the courage it took and heartbreak that extolled from them. He was born here, and allowed to stay because he's a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN, even though he was born to "foreign nationals," but his birth parents weren't because they were illegal immigrants. Kamala's case isn't that different from my father's. Only, her parents were allowed to stay because they were on official student and work visas.

Doesn't matter if Kamala Harris was born to Jamaican and Indian parents, or if she was born to Martians. She was born in the U.S., so she's a natural born U.S. Citizen.

[Hussein] was born in Kenya at a Kenyan hospital, to a Kenyan father. This should've excluded him from serving as POTUS, as he has a birth parent that IS NOT nor ever has been a U.S. Citizen, in a foreign hospital. In his case, BOTH parents should've been U.S. Citizens if he were to be a legally recognized U.S. Citizen. That's why [they] needed to forge a Hawaiian Birth Certificate.

If you're born overseas to both birth parents who are U S. citizens, it doesn't matter if you're born on foreign soil, you're still a legally recognized U.S. Citizen. If you're born on a military installation to at least one U.S. citizen parent, you're a U.S. citizen. If you're born in an Embassy or Consulate, you're a U.S. citizen. I know plenty of kids from my time in the Navy that were born to one foreign national parent on a U.S. installation, and they're natural born U.S. Citizens. I also know some.kids that were born in a foreign hospital to only one U.S. parent, and the U.S. se vice member had to leave them behind with the other parent UNTIL the U.S. decided to recognize that child as a U.S. citizen, or both the foreign national parent and the child were issued a visa and eventually a green card. My son's went to school with a few kids that were in that predicament.

Who among us here knows the story of Bruce Lee? His parents were Chinese citizens working in San Francisco as actors in a travelling troupe. Yet, when he was born, he was issued a U.S. Birth Certificate from California and issued a SSN. Which is why he was able to leave Hong Kong and set up a Kung Fu school almost immediately after arriving WITHOUT having to apply for a visa or green card. And yet, I don't see ANYONE here saying Bruce Lee isn't a NATURAL BORN U.S. CITIZEN.

The same rationale and laws apply to Kamala Harris. She's a natural born U.S. citizen. If we are to attempt to strip that of her, my father and probably millions of other U.S. Citizens would be affected as well. And THAT CANNOT BE ALLOWED.
