They are not synonymous. George Romney was deemed a citizen at birth by virtue of a federal statute because his parents were U.S. citizens and chose to report his birth in Mexico to the State Department. He was not a natural born citizen. If Obama was born in Hawaii, he is a citizen by virtue of the 14th Amendment, which declares him to be a citizen regardless of the citizenship status of his parents, but the 14th Amendment does not make him a natural born citizen. If he was born in Kenya, he could by virtue of a federal statute be deemed a U.S. citizen because his mother was a U.S. citizen--again--if she reported his birth to the State Department. Curiously, there was just one such reporting of a child born in Kenya during the time frame that Obama was reportedly born. The State Department seems to have lost/destroyed the records that would prove who that child was. The people who wrote the Constitution and these statutes understood the difference. We live in a dumbed-down society today where people are simply incapable of discerning the differences and those who know better intentionally misinform because they can do it and get by with it.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12703782/5871324176229152062/comments/default/8361429155512898308'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12703782/5871324176229152062/comments/default/8361429155512898308'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://advanceindiana.blogspot.com/2012/05/chicago-tribune-debates-mitt-romneys.html?showComment=1338395977735#c8361429155512898308' title=''/><author><name>Gary R.
