That is Vattel. According to his definition, Obama would not have been a "Natural Born Citizen".

So, if you accept Vattel's definition, precedent was set when Obama was sworn in and the the definition is moot.

Regardless of the reasons for their drop in the polls, the qualifications are arbitrary and capricious and further evidence that the RNC and the complicit media are trying to inorganically whittle down the field.

And Rand Paul's foreign policy is both mature and rational. The ideas advocated by the likes of Graham, Christie, Rubio, Trump, and Cruz are insane.

No, they aren't. According to the Vattel definition, the FATHER must be a citizen. Obama did not meet that qualification. Being born in this country is only one of the standards. If part of the definition applies, it all applies.

The fact is that the US has since the beginning, recognized two types of citizenship... citizenship by birth and citizenship[ through the naturalization process. Both Vattel and Blackstone were considered valuable sources in defining citizenship, but neither of the definitions they originated were ever specifically codified into law. Under the longstanding, accepted definition of citizenship, both Obama and Cruz are citizens by birth.

If you maintain Cruz is not because he does not mean Vattel's definition, you must concede that Obama is also not a "Natural Born Citizen".

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/volokh-conspiracy/wp/2016/01/12/debating-whether-ted-cruz-is-a-natural-born-citizen/

The definition of "natural born citizen" is neither decided nor refined in a current sense.

Were it go to SCOTUS (and it may) .. AND if originalists like Scalia and Thomas were to be honest, they'd say his situation doesn't meet said constitutional requirement.

But as we all know, they won't say that.
