It would better if they were lining up to seriously reduce the size and scope of the federal government. Federal revenue and manpower needs to be halved. Return the money to the people who can decide whether or not to pursue government activities at the local and state level. Time to end the grifter's frauds.
The requirement is "natural born citizen," which has nothing to do with geographic place of birth. It is a condition where both parents are U.S. citizens, so the offspring would "naturally" be citizens. My cousin was born of a French father and an American mother in Paris, yet she retains U.S. citizenship through the Mother's citizenship (holds dual citizenship).
Both rules are true. One is a natural born citizen if they have at least one parent who is a U.S. citizen or if they are born on U.S. soil.
If one is born on U.S. soil then their parents' citizenship is irrelevant. If one is born outside of the U.S., then they are a natural born U.S. citizen if at least one parent holds U.S. citizenship.
Sorry. As far as the rule for president is concerned, "natural born" means that both parents are U.S. citizens. "Natural born" does not mean born on U.S. soil (though that may be "native born"). The term was 18th century terminology in international law. I repeat: the objective was to preclude having a president with any heritage citizenship in another nation, to avoid conflict of loyalty.
Sorry but that's just not true. There is only "natural born" and "naturalized". Anyone born on US soil is "natural born". That is the definition of natural born. You're born in to it and there is no other stipulation, even for presidency.
Even in your own example, one could be born on US soil to two US citizens but if a parent has dual citizenship, depending on the laws of the other country, the child could then also inherit a second citizenship. In that case the person would be born to two us citizens, on US soil, and still have dual citizenship.
From "The Law of Nations" (1758) a text used in law contemporaneous with the writing of the Constitution:
§ 212. Citizens and natives. The citizens are the members of the civil society; bound to this society by certain duties, and subject to its authority, they equally participate in its advantages. THE NATIVES, OR NATURAL-BORN CITIZENS, ARE THOSE BORN IN THE COUNTRY, OF PARENTS WHO ARE CITIZENS. As the society cannot exist and perpetuate itself otherwise than by the children of the citizens, those children naturally follow the condition of their fathers, and succeed to all their rights. The society is supposed to desire this, in consequence of what it owes to its own preservation; and it is presumed, as matter of course, that each citizen, on entering into society, reserves to his children the right of becoming members of it. The country of the fathers is therefore that of the children; and these become true citizens merely by their tacit consent. We shall soon see whether, on their coming to the years of discretion, they may renounce their right, and what they owe to the society in which they were born. I say, that, in order to be of the country, it is necessary that a person be born of a father who is a citizen; for, if he is born there of a foreigner, it will be only the place of his birth, and not his country.
Biden doesn’t deserve impeachment — that is for presidents. Biden stole the election and has cost American lives. He deserves to be handcuffed and matched out of the White House then tried for treason.
Who or what adapts the fastest? When does someone no longer become useful? How do you get others to do the work for you? Think agent 47... what is the signature kill? What is the root of all evil? Why do humans have original sin? Who grew the fruit?

Half of the federal government could disappear overnight and it wouldn't even put a dent in this tyrannical cluster fuck.
It should be reduced to bare minimum, and then take it in half again. A hundred times smaller than it exists now.
We have so far to go before this can happen Rand.
If by "impeachment" they mean firing squad, I'm aboard!
if kabala harris eats shit from havana virus or whatever then who would be pres? pelosi? god help us all!
That was my worry. Do we have to chew our way through a series of idiots?
id bet... yes, unfortunately
I though that Kabala couldn't become President because both of her parents were in this country on work visas (not citizens) when she was born.
they just stole america, i dont think they give two shits about our laws at this point
Exactly this! ☝🏻
Barry wasn't an American citizen so there's that.
Doesn't matter. If you're born on US soil you have US citizenship.

'Natural born' is needed to hold the office.
That's why they installed her.
To eventually make room for.......?

every damn one of them should have already demanded Biden and others resign! all of congress as well!
Don't let him resign, impeach the bastard!
When Graham goes there, that is big news.
Harris needs to go public otherwise, she goes down with him.
Has a president ever resigned?
he cant really resign, he was never elected.
So he should just stop playing make believe then.
In a just and fair country he would be in a small jail cell writing President Trump to request a pardon.
Nixon

Nixon in 1974.
The Demoncrat Communist Party will never willing give up one of their own unless it furthers their cause. Period.
Dont forget his Hoe. And the coup, it must be punished.
