I’m not sure how this would work. To be vice president you also need to be a natural born citizen and yet she holds the office. How would there be any sort of standing in court? It would be immediately thrown out.
There is a thread posted here yesterday that touched on what exactly the forefathers, particularly Thomas Jefferson, were citing when referencing natural born citizen.
Martin Van Buren, our eighth president, was born at Kinderhook, New York on December 5, 1782, six years and five months after the Declaration of Independence. Unlike his seven predecessors, he was not just a “citizen,” he was a “natural born” citizen… the first president, at least thirty-five years of age, who was born to US citizen parents after July 4, 1776.
I know you knew this, and just made a typo, and it's pissing you off to high heaven lol.
Trumps mother was not a Natural Born Citizen:
I said nothing about a Natural Born Citizen being a person whose parents were also Natural Born Citizens. That a person be a Natural Born Citizen only required that that person's parents be Citizens. And this consideration of parentage was Paternal, not Maternal.
Under natural law in late eighteenth-century Europe and America: the father’s blood determined the political allegiance of free persons at birth; the mother was legally irrelevant.
The Supreme Court of the United States has never applied the term “natural born citizen” to any other category than “those born in the country of parents who are citizens thereof”.
Nowhere is natural born citizen defined, right?

And in the comments were actual links to Supreme Court findings that rendered a single woman’s hypothesis kind of moot
This was a comment I made yesterday:
Yes, but it was actually the first 7 presidents, not nine. George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, James Monroe, John Quincy Adams, and Andrew Jackson.
