    Cons utional Scholars say Marco Rubio is not eligible to be president

    The scholars rely on writings at the time of the formation of the republic and references in court cases since then to contend that "natural born" means a person born to U.S. citizens. Rubio was born in 1971 at Cedars of Lebanon Hospital, his office said, but his parents did not become citizens until 1975.

    "Marco Rubio was born a Cuban citizen via his parents."

    I see you replaced "birthers" with "scholars." Interesting, considering that later in the Article:

    "It's a little confusing, but most scholars think it's a pretty unusual position for anyone to think the natural born citizen clause would exclude someone born in the U.S.," said Polly Price, a law professor at Emory University in Atlanta who specializes in immigration and citizenship.

    That's not the qualification, or Arnold would be eligible. He's not, and apparently, neither is Rubio. Naturalized citizens are not eligible.

    No Anchor Baby Presidents!!

    children born of parents of foreign ambassadors in NYC are not natural born citizens. Rubio was a natural born Cuban citizen who became naturalized when his illegal alien parents became US citizens. it has nothing to do where you were born. Funny how the neocons stick together, defending Obama and Rubio.

    There is no such word as "birthers".

    Can't WAIT to see the contortions of the GOP on their very own immigration stands to defend their token Hispanic candidate.

    Kerchner said Rubio is no different from Obama, who even if he was born in Hawaii (which he doubts) was not born to two U.S. citizens. Obama's father was a Kenyan national
    So we've had seven illegal presidents, and nary a peep about most of them.

    Yeah, right.

    children born of parents of foreign ambassadors in NYC are not natural born citizens. Rubio was a natural born Cuban citizen who became naturalized when his illegal alien parents became US citizens.

    Wow.

    Rubio is nothing more than an anchor baby for an illegal family. Surely, Republicans can see that? He was born to two Cuban nationals, a Cuban citizen.

    He is a citizen born within the USA. That is one way of satisfying being eligible for president. Who ever is pushing this should refer to Black's Law Dictionary for the term natural born, and past rulings on the subject.

    Paul will have around 400 delegates, plus another 200 sleeper delegates.

    Wow.
    No, but Rubio's parents were Cuban citizens, so Marco Rubio is a natural born Cuban citizen.
