Ann Coulter's analysis
Line 46: Line 46:     
was a decision by the Supreme Court of the United States that a child born in the United States to naturalized parents on U.S. soil is a natural born citizen and that the child's natural born citizenship is not lost if the child is taken to and raised in the country of the parents' origin, provided that upon attaining the age of majority, the child elects to retain U.S. citizenship "and to return to the United States to assume its duties." Not only did the court rule that she did not lose her native born Citizenship but it upheld the lower courts decision that she is a "natural born Citizen of the United States" because she was born in the USA to two naturalized U.S. Citizens.

Ann Coulter analyzed "natural born Citizen" as follows:<ref>http://www.wnd.com/2016/01/why-ted-cruz-is-ineligible/#EF5KMBKc1ijKYzSK.03</ref>

:A child born to American parents outside of U.S. territory may be a citizen the moment he is born – but only by “naturalization,” i.e., by laws passed by Congress. If Congress has to write a law to make you a citizen, you’re not “natural born.”
