Natural Born Citizens Are The 3 Leaf Clover Kind of Citizens Not The 4 Leaf Clover
Kind | by CDR Charles F. Kerchner, Jr. (Retired)

(17 Mar 2023) — Regarding the term “natural

born citizen” (NBC) in our U.S. Constitution’s
presidential eligibility clause and Principles of
Natural Law, it is not a very limited club and
category of citizenship. In fact it is exactly the
opposite. NBCs are the most common, garden
variety, most populous group or kind of
citizenship that exists in a typical nation and is
typically by far the most populous kind, group, or
class of citizenship in virtually all nations.

Thus in our United States, we have a very, very large pool of NBCs from which to
choose a President and Command in Chief of our military. We don’t need to search
the ranks of those with foreign allegiances and foreign in�uence and foreign
powers claims on them by birth such as Barack Hussein Obama and Kamala Harris
have. The pool of NBCs is vast in our nation. As in this article’s title and analogy:

Clover Kind”, they are not rare but the most frequently occurring type in nature
and a nation.” Those that are born in the country to two citizens (natural born,
born, or naturalized citizens themselves) of the country when their child is born
in the country, i.e., the “natural born citizens” are the largest group/kind of
citizens in this country and in any nation. The natural born Citizen’s values and
traditions in general de�ne the culture of a nation.

An idea: Go buy a three leaf clover pin and pin it on your lapel. And when people
ask you why you are wearing a three leaf clover pin, tell them what it signi�es
about being a “natural born citizen” of the United States and that Obama, Harris,
Haley, Ramaswamy, Cruz, Rubio, and Jindal and some others seek high national
o�ce are not. Then explain why. Because their fathers were not a U.S. citizen
when Obama or the others listed were born. They do not pass the “Three Legged
Stool Test” for being a “natural born Citizen” of the United States.

In fact, for example, Obama’s father was not even an immigrant to the USA and
was never even a permanent resident here. Obama’s father Obama Sr. was a
foreigner simply sojourning here for a couple years on a student or diplomatic
visa. And then he went home to Kenya.

Thus Barack Hussein Obama Jr. was born to a non-U.S. citizen, non-immigrant,
foreigner father and was thus born with foreign in�uence on him and foreign
citizenship via his father in the truest sense of the meaning of that terminology as
it was intended to mean and used by John Jay in his letter to General George
Washington about what kind of citizen and what type of citizenship is required to
serve as the President and Commander in Chief of our Army for our new nation in
the future. And General Washington agreed that it should only be a “natural born
Citizen” of the new nation, for this singular most powerful o�ce in our new
nation, with the grandfather clause put into Article II of that requirement to
exempt the generation there at the time the Constitution was adopted.

And then as another example of ignoring the original intent meaning and purpose
of the “natural born Citizen” clause in Article II Section 1 Clause 5 of our U.S.
Constitution, you have with Ted Cruz a person born in a foreign country (Canada)

to a father who was not a U.S. Citizen. Ted Cruz was also born with multiple
allegiances and citizenship at birth under various statutory and other country’s
national laws and constitutions: Cuba via his father, U.S. via his mother, and
Canada by place of birth. He was thus not a “natural born” Citizen (adjectives
mean something as to the kind of Citizen) of the United States nor of any country
under Natural Law since he was born with divided allegiance requirements at
birth. A citizen yes, but a “natural born Citizen” no!

For any other political o�ce in our country beyond the President and Vice
President, ordinary basic U.S. citizenship via any statutory law or act of Congress
is �ne. But for the President and the Vice President, you must be a “natural born”
Citizen per Natural Law and have 100% sole allegiance to this nation at and by
birth in the country to two citizens (natural born, born, or naturalized citizens
themselves) of the country when their child is born in the country, and no innate
allegiance to any other country at birth, nor with any innate allegiance foreign
in�uence claim on you by another country or power via your birth circumstances,
determined solely by the events of the nature at your birth, not by any retro-
active after the fact citizenship status granted by the laws or legislative acts of
man. Only nature and the circumstances of your birth can make you a “natural
born Citizen“. No man-made law or act of Congress can do so after the fact.

Again, those who are born in the country to two citizens (natural born, born, or
naturalized citizens themselves) of the country when their child is born in the
country, i.e., the “natural born citizens” are the largest group and kind of citizens
in this country and any country. Natural born citizens are second generation
citizens, born to citizen parents in the country. The three leaf clover kind, not the
four leaf clover kind!

Divided allegiance at birth for people in or seeking high political o�ce is a serious
problem in the USA. Read about it here at this newspaper:

I feel compelled to point out that a parent(s) born in U.S. Territories are not
considered born within the jurisdiction for Art. II, §1, cl. 5 purposes unless
Congress has speci�cally passed legislation to that e�ect.
I am thinking speci�cally of Tulsi Gabbard.

Yes, Tulsi Gabbard is another one who is a Citizen but not a “natural born
Citizen”. Her father was Samoan and was a “U.S. National” per man-made

naturalization law, i.e., Title 8 Section 1401, a group naturalization act of

Congress (https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/8/1401) but her father was
not a U.S. Citizen. Tulsi Gabbard, while talking the right talk lately about what is
wrong with our country, has a history and past of being associated with and part
of the communist far-leftist activists and their agenda to get the country into
the bad shape it is today. See: https://www.worldviewweekend.com/tv/video
