Trump should have highlighted that he chose a VP with 2 American parents in full compliance with the natural born citizen clause, and in contrast to such anchor babies as Vivek, Nimrata, Cruz, Rubio, Jindal, Harris, Obama.
As a Pentagon source writes:
Their candidate is a mumbling meat-puppet who led us into global conflict on the verge of WW3.
Is BioClandestine a Pentagon source? (See https://t.me/bioclandestine/3524)
Just look at the state of the Democrat Party.
Their candidate is a mumbling meat-puppet, that led us into global conflict on the verge of WW3.
Their only policy ideas are killing babies, men in dresses, and open borders.
They resort to violence when they don’t get their way.
They have infiltrated the media, academia, and tech, using their power to lie, censor, omit, deceive, manipulate, and brainwash.
They have weaponized all levers of government and the private sector to go after their political opponents and citizens who oppose their rule.
They actively interfere in elections, encourage illegals to vote, and outright cheat with harvesting mail-in ballots.
They defend and encourage pedophilia and sexualization of children.
And now they are calling for Biden to go full-totalitarian military dictatorship, and use force to take out Trump and his allies.
The Democrat Party have become all the evil things they claim to fight.
Natural born citizenship is special and only relevant to people who want to hold the public trust of president or VP. If the natural born citizenship clause was completely disregarded, Russian, Ukrainian, Chinese, Iranian, N Korean, Israelis, Cubans couples could come stay in a birthing apartment in California (as Chinese do) on tourist visas, and have a kid raised under the influence of his parents who goes on to be president or VP. The Founders wrote the natural born citizen clause to prevent this.
The president of Georgia (former USSR) was born in Paris 1952 and by agreement between France and Georgia, received Georgian nationality in 2004. She barely speaks the language. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salome_Zourabichvili America was supposed to be held to a higher standard than this.
If the media were to ask President Trump, "Are you a natural born citizen?," he would probably respond with, "My father, an American citizen, Fred Trump, was born in New York City, and my mother, Mary Anne, was born in Scotland and became a naturalized American citizen in March 1942. I was born in Queens in 1946. Yes, I am a natural born citizen."
But SCOTUS never clarifies the Constitution until something happens to make them do it.
The Founders didn't think they needed to clarify this as the typical English usage of the time settled the matter.

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.

"The American people will never knowingly adopt Socialism. But under the name of
liberalism they will adopt every fragment of the Socialist program,
until one day America will be a Socialist nation without knowing how it happened."

By the way, Google no longer shows such analyses. I had to use Yandex to find this.

They'll have to define "United States". Federal laws have many different definitions. If someone is naturalized, they get a certificate that says they are a citizen of the United States of America.
By what process or law does
a citizen of the United States of America
become
a citizen of the United States?
Big Mike seems to pass the natural born citizen test of:
birth in America
American mother
American father
I looked at her wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michelle_Obama and her roots go back to slavery times.
Kamala, Vivek, Rubio, Nimrod Haley all fail to qualify.
