All state Democratic party chairs endorse Harris
WASHINGTON (Reuters) -State Democratic party chairs on Sunday threw their weight behind Vice President Kamala Harris to be the party's new presidential nominee to run against Republican nominee and former president, Donald Trump. The chairs held a confere...
The U.S. Constitution states that the president must be a natural-born citizen of the United States.
Per Cornell University Law, A natural born citizen refers to someone who was a U.S. citizen at birth, and did not need to go through a naturalization proceeding later in life.
Per Harvard Law Review, a “natural born Citizen” means a citizen from birth with no need to go through naturalization proceedings. The Supreme Court has confirmed that natural born citizens are persons born either within the USA or abroad who are citizens from birth based on the citizenship of a parent.
To have become a naturalized citizen, either one of Kamala's parents would need to have resided in the United States as a lawful permanent resident for at least five years... and then completed the naturalization paperwork and process. They didn't before she was born.
Trump can let Kamala be selected as the Dem candidate at their convention in August, and then immediately challenge her candidacy to the Supreme Court. She doesn't meet the definition, and is therefor ineligible.
Democrats would then have to scramble in September and October to name a different candidate and try to get their name on the ballots of as many states as possible at the last minute. Good luck with that.
