Constitutional expert: Here's what 'natural born citizen' means
Those who wonder about Obama need to watch this explanation
...
"'Natural born citizen' in relation to the office of president, and whether someone is eligible, was in the Constitution from the very beginning," he said. "Another way of putting it: There is a law of the nature of citizenship. If you are a natural born citizen, you are a citizen according to the law of nature, not according to any positive statement in a Constitution or in a statute, but because of the very nature of your birth and the very nature of nations."
If you "go back and look at what the law of nature would be or would require . that's precisely what a natural born citizen is .. is one who is born to a father and mother each of whom is a citizen of the U.S. or whatever other country..."
"Now what we've learned from the Hawaii birth certificate is that Mr. Obama's father was not a citizen of the United States. His mother was, but he doesn't qualify as a natural born citizen for the office of president."

Some will die in hot pursuit
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain

Just to add to the mix, I am sure you are all aware of this, but it bears mentioning in the face of arguments against...The 14th Amendment's citizenship clause refers to anyone born in the USA and subject to the laws of the nation as a citizen.
That last part is important. If you are born here, that is one thing, but if you are not a subject of the laws of our nation (in other words you are not a willing and law abiding participant in our nation) then your birth alone does not give you rights to plunder our resources, our land, and our freedoms. This, unfortunately, has never been defined in a Supreme Court case that I am aware of, though it would help in clarifying the status of millions of illegals and their anchor baby attachments to the US.

Howdy all,

Arguments against what? You're confusing terms and issues with your post.
