but de vattel never used the phrase "natural born citizen" ( or the french translation of the phrase ). if the founding fathers had meant for it to be de vattel's definition don't you think they would have specifically used the direct english translation of his words ?
I don't give a refudiated fart about Vattel or Arthur. Might as well dig up Scipio Africanus' definition of Roman citizenship. The only definitions that matters are in the US Constitution and court decisions on same. So far nothing defines 'natural born' as solely the offspring of 2 US citizens.

Yep. That probably has something to do with why Pres. Obama hasn't been impeached/removed from office, yet.

Natural Born Citizens sure t'wernt no anchor baby Brits!
Obama was born an American. An American who could claim British citizenship if he so chose.
Incorrect. Obama was born an American AND a Brit. Read the British Nationality Act of 1948. That is what disqualifies his Constitutional eligibility for POTUS and CIC.
Obama, the DNC, Organizinf for America, and FactCheck all admit Obama's status is governed by the British Nationality Act of 1948.
Quote:
Barack Obama Sr. was a British subject whose citizenship status was governed by The British Nationality Act of 1948. That same act governed the status of Obama Sr.‘s children.
