The Natural Born Citizen Requirement

With Democratic presidential candidate and former U.S. Vice President Joe Biden naming U.S. Senator Kamala Harris (D-CA) as his running mate, a new round of "birtherism" is rearing its ugly head. The theory being floated by only a few people at this point is that she is ineligible to be Vice President because she is not a "natural born citizen." This is completely untrue, but it's worth examining the U.S. Supreme Court case of U.S. v . Wong Kim Ark.
The one inescapable conclusion is there are very few instances of someone being born on U.S. soil who are not allowed to claim citizenship as envisioned and codified in the U.S. Constitution and its Fourteenth Amendment. In addition, there is also natural born citizenship conferred on the children of U.S. Citizens born outside the country. In this podcast, I'll review the case findings as well as apply it to the cases of Kamala Harris, Barack Obama, Ted Cruz, and John McCain.
