Natural Born Follows The Natural Birth Father
Why is Trump asking where the birth certificate is when Obama has already admitted to not being a natural born citizen of the United States?
The Founders borrowed the term natural born citizen from the international treatise known as the Law of Nations, which appears in the U.S. Constitution under Article I and the enumerated powers of congress to enforce violations against the Law of Nations.
To be a natural born citizen of the United States, one must be the blood offspring of a father who was at the time of birth, a legal U.S. citizen. Emerich de Vattel wrote in 1758, the following definition of natural born citizen and every member of the U.S. Supreme Court know this definition well… it’s not at all complicated.

If people would read the declaration of demands in the official documents of the colonist they will find the proper answer. In each case they demanded assurance that by moving to this colony they will retain all rights and privileges of British citizenship including the right to pass such right on to their descendants.
In three separate documents they made it clear that citizenship had a proprietary value that would be passed on to their issues. The word issues exclude adoption and is meant to be natural born part of the citizens. They did not differentiate between man or woman.
It was our lazy Congress that fouled up the issue for political reasons but don’t tell me the Founders were not clear. A natural born citizen is the “Issue” of a citizen. And yes, that means that immigrants needed to become citizen before baring citizens. That might have been the political concern.
