If you weren't born here, you're not a real America. Jus Soli.
From the US Constitution:
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.
The Founding Fathers did not trust foreign-born citizens with holding the Office of President because they are not real Americans.
And? This isn't news to anyone. The people who immigrate here don't do so because they want to be American citizens, they do so in order to make their children citizens.
Alexander Hall
And how meaningless that is now because of the 14th Amendment should scare you OP.
Xavier Reed
Very true my fellow American.
Good thing we are closing our borders from the rest of the world
Praise kek

>The people who immigrate here don't do so because they want to be American citizens, they do so in order to make their children citizens.
You mean natural-born citizens. Anyone who comes here legally can become an American citizen (naturalized).
What I'm saying is that naturalized citizens are not real Americans despite having US citizenship.
Isaiah Reed
SO OBAMA WAS FUCKING ILLEGITIMATE YOU FUCKING IMBECILE
NATURAL BORN = CHILD OF CITIZENS
PLURAL
CITIZENS
NOT JUST HIS WHITE TRASH PORNO MAKING TRAITOR OF A MOTHER
Ryder Lopez
I was born here and became a naturalized citizen in Mexico
Ian Moore
It's bait.
It's a pretty lame attempt to "hurr hurr Drumpf's not a citizen, he gotta totes deport himself!"
Jackson Stewart
>SO OBAMA WAS FUCKING ILLEGITIMATE YOU FUCKING IMBECILE >NATURAL BORN = CHILD OF CITIZENS
No you idiot. Natural born means you were born on American territory. We are a Jus Soli nation.
Lincoln Martinez
If u want real americans why dont you ask a real native american? Btfo nigger
Camden Wright
Are PRs eligible to be POTUS?
Ryan Stewart
Can I be president? I promise I won't return your country to the queen
Matthew Turner
>It's bait. >It's a pretty lame attempt to "hurr hurr Drumpf's not a citizen, he gotta totes deport himself!"
I don't follow. Trump was born in Queens you moron.
Justin Gomez
Becoming president has the law of only people born here because they didn't know any other country, and to prevent european nobles, nothing else.
The people of the US were white men.
Jose Torres
I believe so since Puerto Rico is US territory.
Ayden Thompson
And? You think I'm arguing that Obama was a legitimate president? He was illegitimate for many reasons.
Yeah, sorry, I brain farted. I meant people come here not to be natural born citizens themselves, but for their children. Being born an American used to mean something, back when we weren't tricked to give up our national pride.
What? There is zero doubt that Trump was born here. Are you thinking of Ted Cruz?
Colton Campbell
No, you weren't born here. Fuck off you crooked toothed British faggot.
John Rogers
black people were just foreign workers and a toolshed, not people nor Americans.
Jackson Young
If you ever vote to become a state spic

>at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution
They just meant nobody who was a foreigner on that day wasn't allowed to be president. Probably to snub some nosy brits on their land at the time.
Hunter Sanders
You're an idiot. The natural-born clause was put there to protect the country from any foreign influence.
nothing here about special negroes, educated niggers etc... only the race.
Matthew Morgan
rude
Nathaniel Price
His grandfather or some grandfather was a Immigrant who naturalize.
Juan Lewis
To protect the revolution and constitution, nothing else.
The founders had massive European immigration and saw themselves the same as English people.
Oliver Ross
hello ted
Aiden Ward
Nice reading comprehension leaf.
That part was put there because technically no one was a natural-born citizen at the time. The first few presidents were born as British subjects.
Ryder Morris
It doesn't matter. Everyone born on US soil is a natural-born citizen.
Isaac Morris
>The founders had massive European immigration and saw themselves the same as English people.
No they didn't you fucking moron. They despised the English identity and viewed themselves as Americans only.
This was especially true of George Washington because the British didn't trust him with having a high rank in the military because he was a filthy American colonist.
Joshua Phillips
No, only those subjects to the US.
Jeremiah Bennett
>hey despised the English identity and viewed themselves as Americans only. Go read some more, American never existed.
Cooper Reyes
I watched Bill O'Reilly's Legends and Lies.
The American identity did exist you fucking idiot. That was one of the reasons the Founders made America a Jus Soli nation.
Juan Green
many of the founders had family living in the isles.
Juan Ward
No it didn't, they did it to make sure there wasn't a European power owning the US.
Ethan Gutierrez
And your point? I have family living in England but I do not consider myself English.
I smell a hyphenated faggot.
Matthew Thomas
And yet, Ted Cruz ran for president.
Colton Rogers
The rights of Englishmen are the perceived traditional rights of citizens of England. Some colonists that objected to British rule in the British colonies in North America argued that their traditional[1] rights as Englishmen were being violated. This subsequently became a justification for the American Revolution.[2][3]
The American colonies had since the 17th century been fertile ground for libertarian opinion within the spectrum of European political discourse.[4] However, as the ratification of the Declaration of Independence approached, the issue among the colonists of which particular rights were significant became divisive. George Mason, one of the Founding Fathers of the United States, stated that "We claim nothing but the liberty and privileges of Englishmen in the same degree, as if we had continued among our brethren in Great Britain."
Colonists just wanted equality with other Englishmen, nothing else.
Aaron Watson
>Colonists just wanted equality with other Englishmen, nothing else.
Sure but they didn't consider themselves English and they especially weren't proud to be English.
Otherwise the Constitution would have explicitly stated anyone with English blood is an American citizen.
Nathan Anderson
yes they did, go read franklin.
Dylan Green
I'm an anchor baby and an American >:]
Jose Lee
I smell a WASPy faggot.
You should visit New York. Tons of blonde WASP sluts getting fucked by Italian and Jewish cocks.
It's been that way for the past 100 years here hehehe.
Cameron Clark
its more along the lines of them not wanting foreign people with connections to other countries being able to influence our politic on that large of a scope you fucking dense retard
Adam Myers
GO FOR IT JOSÉ
Alexander Butler
aka they didn't trust them because only real Americans can be trusted.
Lucas Hill
Im trying to get dual citizenship for us and mexico, that way i can get passed the wall more easily. I love cancun, its a great place.
Levi Diaz
You're a faggot. Anyone with dual citizenship should not be allowed to have US citizenship.
