You're right but she was born in California, and even this Supreme Court would never declare such a person to be not a natural-born citizen. Especially now that she's been VP for four years.
It should have been made clear BEFORE Harris was allowed to assume the VP title that a person must have at least one US citizen parent at the time of birth just to be a US citizen at all, never mind the question of natural born.
But SCOTUS never clarifies the Constitution until something happens to make them do it.
The fact that nothing happened to challenge Harris's qualification at the time establishes that it's now accepted: being born on US soil is sufficient for a person to run for president or VP if they meet the age requirement, etc. That would now have to be reversed after her 4-year term. While highly unlikely, I would strongly favor that reversal; no one born of two foreigners should ever be president of the USA.

Law of Nations, 1758 law book defines "natural born citizen"
Legal scholars and studiers of the founding of our country and the framers of our
Constitution reference this book as a core, contemporaneously written legal reference book, The Law of Nations, used by the framers of our Constitution. It was written in 1758 and was used as a college text book in America from c1770 on. Ben Franklin received three copies of the French edition from the editor Dumas in 1775 for use by
Franklin and the Continental Congress. It has a section #212, in Book 1 Chapter 19
thereof, which deals with defining "natural born" citizenship. Here is the link to the book
at Amazon. I just ordered mine.

Paper/dp/0865974519/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1229063894&sr=8-1
Quote of section 212, Chapter 19, Book 1, Law of Nations, by Vattel, written in 1758:
"§ 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. "

Note the emphasis where it says. "... natural born citizens, are those born in the country of
parents who are citizens." ... note it says parents, not parent. And later on the father's
citizenship too is mentioned as being crucial, not so much as the mother's. And the last
sentence, "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." This contemporaneous legal reference and scholarly book
used as a college textbook in the 1700s is relevant to the thinking of our framers when
they wrote the U.S. Constitution. And this applies to Obama's case today in several ways.
I sure hope the Justices are reading this book lately when it comes to determine the
framer's intent for the meaning of "natural born citizen" in our Constitution. Certainly
with the facts as we know them about Obama, and common sense, and reading this quote
from the 250 year old book tells me that Obama is NOT a natural born citizen of the
USA. First, both his parents were not citizens of the USA, only one was. Second, the one
who was a citizen of the USA was not his father. Third, where Obama was actually born
has not been conclusively proven beyond any doubt.

Did anyone save the video of that time the imposter in a mask showed up pretending to be her at a small outdoor gathering? It did nto look like her AT ALL. People started questioning her identity and she had to flee the scene...
Harris cannot be President according to the Constitution---or VP for that matter---but if Joe resigns, Kamala is challenged and has to step aside---Mike Johnson becomes President. Harris cannot pick a VP since she is not President. Johnson becomes President and picks Trump as his VP them Johnson resigns. I SURE HOPE THIS IS THE PLAN! Keke
Now, now, boys and girls. Let's leave our first FEMALE VP alone. She hasn't done anything to raise the ire of Conservatives because her brain is as empty as Joe's, thus she cannot harm a fly. As for her Indian heritage..........Let's just say she's half black, half Indian, half Mexican, half inner city hoodrat, half African, half wannbe transitioner. All that together adds up to a whole, right?
Send proof of her parents' citizenship at the time of her birth.
The Constitution does not permit anchor babies with foreign parents to be President or VP.
Cough, Obama, cough!
I was saying they need to replace Biden with Gruesome Newsom or some others and then the left can melt down and cannibalize themselves.
You're right but she was born in California, and even this Supreme Court would never declare such a person to be not a natural-born citizen. Especially now that she's been VP for four years.

By the way, Google no longer shows such analyses. I had to use Yandex to find this.
Thanks Arch! Yeah, I use Yandex often too.

The Founders didn't think they needed to clarify this as the typical English usage of the time settled the matter.

she's blaxican. i mean jamindian? indimaican?
latin x. no wait, black x.
politically convenient x. anything but the white devil x.
pretty sure its one of those, anyways
Howls.
Lying Lizzy Warren enters the chat. 🚶♀️🚪
LOL
That right there is a woman who loves to knock wood.
Her blackness is from her Jamaican grandpa or something. She doesn’t even identify as African American.
she flunked her high school Geography class. She thought Jamaica is in the continent of Africa.
Montel Williams’s concubine
Really? Damn.
She's as black as Michelle is female.
LOL
...Willie gave Kammy a "Pearl Necklace"...
https://youtu.be/8Rd3wIxiMHQ?si=GuApZ7n8fk0t6qJl
LOL. She is strange.
..."just this side of deranged"...
I would say so. Nutty.
Most Indians I know are very intelligent. This one went off the deep end.
...but she got her "Pearl Necklace"...
Howls.
...I knew you would catch on sooner or later...
I guess when her pearls are in TWIST she changed into a Black Woman?????
https://files.catbox.moe/q59xw0.png
...doggy grins...
...indeed...
I'd sure she wore it proudly.
..cackle...
...slurp...
...cackle...
...looks up at Willie lovingly....
holds up a brown paper bag to her face
LOL. Yes
I guess ethnicity is fluid too.
If I get a major tan, can I call myself Black? LOL
Did anyone save the video of that time the imposter in a mask showed up pretending to be her at a small outdoor gathering? It did nto look like her AT ALL. People started questioning her identity and she had to flee the scene...
Be funny to see.
Harris cannot be President according to the Constitution---or VP for that matter---but if Joe resigns, Kamala is challenged and has to step aside---Mike Johnson becomes President. Harris cannot pick a VP since she is not President. Johnson becomes President and picks Trump as his VP them Johnson resigns. I SURE HOPE THIS IS THE PLAN! Keke
Wouldn't that be great. LOL
We have to be watching a movie, she’s actually likable and can speak 😂🤣
LOL. I have been saying we are watching a movie.
Now, now, boys and girls. Let's leave our first FEMALE VP alone. She hasn't done anything to raise the ire of Conservatives because her brain is as empty as Joe's, thus she cannot harm a fly. As for her Indian heritage..........Let's just say she's half black, half Indian, half Mexican, half inner city hoodrat, half African, half wannbe transitioner. All that together adds up to a whole, right?
LOL. Hoodrat? What a name.
Yeah, it always annoys me when the MSM refers to her as "Black." I am 100% White of German ancestry, and on a sunny day, I'm "blacker" than Harris is.
They lied about everything and anything.
She is an Indian-Jamaican whose ancestors were plantation owners with slaves.
Heard that b4. Thanks.
We just keep spreading the words.
Such an idiot. God help us.
Wondered how she passed the Bar Exam?
Here is a video of her dancing
https://x.com/bonchieredstate/status/1808490045931651576
She transitioned when she swallowed Willie Brown's DNA. Trust the science.
LOL
