Title: Is Marco Rubio a "Natural Born Citizen"?

There has been talk on other sites (hint: Goldi-Lox and LP) about the desirability of Marco Rubio running for president.

Since these sites are also by and large "birther" sites, I want to know if Rubio is considered a "natural born citizen" and if so, why.

If he was born in the US, and his parents had become US citizens and renounced allegiance to Cuba by the time of his birth, he's natural born. He needs to show his parents citizenship papers, and his long form birth certificate.

All that's needed to prove hObama ineligible is a long form birth certificate from ANYWHERE showing that his father is Barack Obama. We already know that he was a British subject, that never became a US citizen.

You need to evaluate this according to the "birther" theory of law.

In "real" law, being born on US soil is enough. "Birther" law is another thing entirely, and should be consistent with how it has been applied to Obama.

Dead wrong. Check out the 14th amendment.... subject to the jurisdiction thereof (US). Not British jurisdiction, or Kenyan.

The only people living in the U.S. who are not subject to our laws are people who have diplomatic immunity. Rubio's dad was a Cuban exile, not a Cuban diplomat.

None of the above. He left Cuba before the revolution and Castro. He was an immigrant, not an exile/refugee. AFAIK he was a REAL immigrant, and NOT an illegal alien.

Legal or illegal, it doesn't matter. For better or worse, children of illegal immigrants are US citizens, unless the Federal government gives up jurisdiction over illegal immigrants.

I don't believe that his parents were illegal aliens, but they may not have completed naturalization at the time of Marco's birth. US citizen yes, natural born maybe not. Just being born in the US doesn't make one a natural born citizen.

We need the naturalization dates of the parents to know that.

Natural born citizen means born a citizen.

There isn't a law or court case that says this. And before you show me Wong Ark Kim, give me a pinpoint citation. Because I read the case in the entirety and it doesn't even mention natural born in the majority opinion.

There are many cases to study for precedence, far too many to list here. Please use the link to obamafiles in my post #13.

So give me one. I've skimmed those cases. Not one defines natural born citizen in the majority opinion.
