So they want to be PRESIDENT of the United States?
But they are NOT Natural Born Citizens!
Will we TRAMPLE the Constitution yet AGAIN?
Marco Rubio, Bobby Jindal and Ted Cruz – ELIGIBLE?
“There are two ends of the spectrum as which just about everyone agrees: (1) A person born in the United States to parents both of whom are United States citizens is a “natural born Citizen”; and (2) a person born outside the United States to parents neither of whom is a United States citizen is not a “natural born Citizen” even if citizenship later is obtained through naturalization. These are what law professor Lawrence Solum refers to as “cases of inclusion and exclusion.
Rubio, Jindal and Cruz, as did Obama, fall between those points of inclusion and exclusion. Rubio and Jindal were born in the United States to parents neither of whom was a United States citizen at the time; Cruz was born in Canada to parents one of whom (his mother) was a United States citizen.
Under the law existing at the time of their birth, each became a citizen of the United States at birth. Rubio and Jindal by the 14th Amendment, Cruz by statute.

Article II, Section 1, of the Constitution provides, in pertinent part (emphasis added):
No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.
NATURAL BORN CITIZEN “HAS” been defined – by the U.S. Senate in 2008!
In case you are in doubt about Natural Born Citizenship requirements – don’t forget that in 2008 The US SENATE investigated Prez Candidate John McCain on HIS natural born status.Then Senators Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton sat on that hearing and signed SR 511 attesting to their findings on McCain and the definition of Natural Born Citizen.
READ Senate Resolution 511 wherein they defined McCain to be a “natural born citizen.” They did this based upon the criteria that John McCain was found to have
1. Been born on American soil or a U.S. possession and
2. BOTH parents were American citizens at time of birth.
Bottom Line:
Marco Rubio, Bobby Jindal, Ted Cruz – COULD NOT hold up to the standards of SR 511.
