The Good News: Rubio’s Eligible ?
The Good News: Rubio’s Eligible
The Founders were serious about American identity and the integrity of republican principles. It was an incredible blessing to us that George and Martha Washington had no children of their marriage. Washington had referred to this fact in the first draft of his Inaugural Address. There would be no danger of monarchy here, he said, because he had “no child for whom I could wish to make provision — no family to build in greatness upon my country’s ruin.”
Now, consider Marco Rubio. His parents were resident aliens when he was born in 1971, seeking and soon to receive their status as naturalized U.S. citizens. Under the Fourteenth Amendment, “all persons born…in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the states wherein they reside.” This “subject to the jurisdiction thereof” clause shows why Rubio is — and, very likely, why children of illegal aliens are not — a “natural born citizen of the United States.”
We should be very careful in discussions of the Constitution to avoid the impression that we are an anti-immigrant party. To say that Rubio, Jindal, and Haley are forever barred because of a strained interpretation of the Constitution’s eligibility clause would condemn conservatism to minority status for the foreseeable future. Surely, that is not what we want.
The Obama Hustle’s response to the Conservative Byte article:
I and many of me fellow American Citizens feel that the literal wording of the U.S. Constitution as it pertains to an individuals eligibility to hold Presidential and or the Vice Presidential office needs to be exact as expressed in Article II – Section I – Clause IV of the United States Constitution:
Clause 5: Qualifications for office
“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.”
Marco Rubio’s birth at the time of his parents’ status does in fact make him a citizen, but not a “Natural Born Citizen”. I, AL HENDERSHOT JR. (Editor of The Obama Hustle) am a Cuban American like Marco Rubio. My mother Magally Aguero Gomez Hendershot was not a U.S. citizen at the time of my birth in 1966. She was a Resident Alien from Cuba until 1976 when she received her American Citizenship. Therefore, like Marco Rubio, I am not a Natural Born Citizen and not eligible the be President or Vice President of these United States as per Article II-Sec I-Clause IV of The United States Constitution.
Like me, Marco Rubio is a “Native Born” citizen as per the 14th Amendment to the Constitution which dictated that individuals born in these United States are citizens at birth. But nowhere in this amendment does it clarify or supercede Article II-Sec I-Clause IV as it pertains the the qualifications set forth to hold the highest two offices in the United States of America.
