Kamala’s parents were in the United States on student visa from Jamaica and India. Is Kamala Harris a citizen of India and Jamaica at birth and as such not eligible for the position of Vice President?

Posted on | August 11, 2020 | 20 Comments

Kamala’s parents were in the United States on student visa from Jamaica and India, as citizens of Jamaica and India. Is Kamala Harris a citizen of India and Jamaica at birth? Did she have a split allegiance to two other nations at birth and as such not a Natural born US citizen and as such not eligible to be the US Vice President?

Is Kamala Harris eligible to be Joe Biden’s VP?

Is Kamala Harris a natural born citizen?

It is no secret that Harris wants to be Joe Biden’s vice president.  The junior senator from California clearly sees an opening to her real objective: the presidency of the United States.  With Biden surprisingly outlasting the other anti-American socialist candidates, Harris recognizes that Biden’s age and declining cognitive abilities pose a glorious opportunity to resurrect her presidential ambitions.  After all, there is an good chance that the bumbling, incoherent Biden might have to resign or be removed in his first term and his V.P. would succeed him.  Even if Biden managed to miraculously finish his first term, it is unlikely that he would or could run for a second.

Harris would love to “back door” her way into the presidency, especially given the fact that her vacuous campaign was an unmitigated disaster, and any future presidential ambitions looked to be a virtual impossibility only a few months ago.

But not so fast.  Harris is constitutionally ineligible to be VPOTUS (12th Amendment) or POTUS (Article 2).  She is not — nor can she ever be — a natural born citizen, the highest standard of citizenship mandated by the Constitution for the president and commander-in-chief.  The Founding Fathers wanted a higher standard of citizenship for the POTUS because they did not want any competing allegiances with foreign governments.

Harris was born in Oakland, California on October 20, 1964, to an Indian citizen mother and a Jamaican citizen father.  Thus, Harris is a native-born American citizen, or a citizen pursuant to what I refer to as the anchor baby provision of the 14th Amendment.

wrote to Senator Harris on Dec. 4, 2017, expressing that the presidential eligibility clause, Article II, Section 1, Clause 5 mandates that the president must be a natural born citizen.  She and her campaign replied with a form letter that purposely ignored the issue.

But wait, there is more!  Harris may be a native-born American citizen by the accident of her birth and in my opinion an erroneous 14th Amendment interpretation, but she is also a citizen of Jamaica.

Under Chapter 2 of the Constitution of Jamaica, a person born in Jamaica after August 5, 1962, or born outside Jamaica after that date to a parent who is a Jamaican citizen, is automatically considered a Jamaican citizen at birth.  Furthermore, under current Jamaican legislation, citizens of Jamaica can hold multiple nationalities.  And this status does not prohibit serving in the legislature of Jamaica!

Imagine that: a vice president or president of the United States with concurrent citizenship with another foreign government — a person with clearly divided loyalties and an ability and opportunity to participate in governmental proceedings of another country, travel on another country’s passport, and legally take up residence in that country.

Specifically, Chapter 2 (entitled Citizenship) of the Jamaica Constitution, Section 3C states:

Every person born outside Jamaica shall become a citizen of Jamaica –

  1. on the sixth day of August 1962, in the case of a person born before that date; or
  2. on the date of his/her birth, in the case of a person born on or after the sixth day of August 1962,

if, at that date, his/her father or mother is a citizen of Jamaica by birth, descent, or registration by virtue of marriage to a citizen of Jamaica.

Harris was born Oct. 20, 1964, and her father was a citizen of Jamaica at the time of her birth.  Therefore, the law of Jamaica is clear: Kamala Harris is a citizen of Jamaica, pursuant to Section 3Cb of the Constitution of Jamaica.

And what about citizenship of India?  Harris’s mother was a citizen of India and, to the best of my knowledge, never actually became an American citizen.  Does Kamala qualify for Indian citizenship, too?

No, she does not.  Under Indian law, dual citizenship is not allowed.  However, Indian law does allow persons of Indian origin certain benefits and privileges.  A PIO (persons of Indian origin) card may be issued to those holding U.S. passports, who can prove their Indian origin up to three generations before along with spouses of Indian citizens or persons of Indian origin.

The PIO card is valid for fifteen years and provides the following benefits:

· exemption from registration at a Foreigners’ Regional Registration Office (FRRO) for periods of stay less than 180 days

· enjoy parity with non-resident Indians in economic, financial, and educational fields

· acquire, hold, transfer, or dispose of immovable properties in India, except for agricultural properties

· open rupee bank accounts, lend in rupees to Indian residents, and make investments in India, etc.

· being eligible for various housing schemes under the Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC) or the central or State governments

· their children can obtain admission in educational institutions in India in the general category quota for non-resident Indians

It should be noted that PIO card–holders are not entitled to the following:

· the exercise of any political rights

· visits to restricted or protected areas without permission

· mountaineering, research, and missionary work without permission.

It would be interesting to find out if Harris ever held or currently holds a PIO card.

Thus, Kamala Harris, United States senator, former candidate for the president of the United States, and current prospective candidate for vice president in the upcoming election, has competing foreign citizenship with the country of Jamaica and preferential status with the country of India.

If Harris is picked by Biden, what does that say about the vetting process?  Americans would be asked to vote for a ticket that has a foreign citizen candidate — precisely the type of candidate that the Founding Fathers were trying to preclude.  What sense does that make?  The whole purpose of Article 2 and the natural born citizen requirement is to ensure that the president and commander-in-chief have no foreign influence whatsoever.

Clearly, Kamala Harris has no respect for the Constitution.  Her lack of transparency regarding her background combined with her naked political ambition is an affront to all law-abiding citizens and those who seek to uphold the Constitution.  Others from both parties have chosen to subvert Article 2 in the past three election cycles.  As I said to Senator Harris in my letter more than two and a half years ago, it is time for the American people to be fully informed as to how the elite media and our complicit so-called representatives have subverted the intent and true meaning of the Constitution.

    Our elected officials seem to be ignoring Constitutional rules re: eligibility for POTUS and VPOTUS and also for the death penalty for high crimes, sedition and treason against the US. Attempted coup falls into that category. It’s as though they have become “soft” cowards in refusing to follow our founding docs. They simply don’t have the guts to properly punish and/or enforce. Makes me wonder what one has to do, if anything at all, in order to suffer Constitutional consequences.

    Yes, exactly: BOTH parties have chosen to subvert Article 2 in the past three election cycles! It’s particularly ugly from the side of Republicans, which…

    – in 2008 ran McCain not born on the US soil (and the traitor of the American POWs);
    – in 2012 banned Dr. Taitz and Sheriff Arpaio from reporting the criminal findings on Obama/Soetoro whom they supposedly wished to defeat;
    – in 2016 ran already four impostors – not US natural born candidates for presidency (before they reluctantly supported Trump). And…
    – in 2016, alas, Trump reneged from his own earlier efforts to expose usurpation by Obama/Soetoro whose perpetrators were all three branches of the US government top down and both “parties”. Trump reneged and actually promised to never touch and to close this issue.

    That’s contemporary sinful unrepentant America: an illegal entity, existing in direct violation of its own constitution, in defiance of God – https://judeochristianamerica.org/UFOStillAtLarge.htm

    U.S. Constitution is our founding document, Supreme Law, and the greatest charter for government ever devised. Americans have lost it and will pay a terrible price. It takes a naturalized citizen originally from Moldova to stand up for it. Thank you Orly for all that you have done for our (former) Constitutional Republic. Tragic times.

    She got campaign money to run for president.FEC should charge her for fraud and require return of funds. Not a natural born citizen thus not eligible for pres or vp. Semper Fi

    “Harris is a natural-born U.S. citizen
    Harris is a citizen of the United States and has been since birth.

    She was born in Oakland, California, on Oct. 20, 1964, according to Encyclopedia Britannica. Her parents were both immigrants — her father from Jamaica and her mother from India.

    By virtue of her birth in California, Harris is a natural-born U.S. citizen.

    The Citizenship Clause of the 14th Amendment provides that “all persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.”

    And that’s not dependent on their parents’ citizenship. “Anyone born on U.S. soil and subject to its jurisdiction is a natural born citizen, regardless of parental citizenship,” according to the Cornell Legal Information Institute.

    Parental citizenship is only relevant to an individual’s citizenship status if the individual is born outside of the United State”.

    Doesn’t mean that President Trump’s children aren’t natural born citizens?

    Nor is Trump natural born. His mother was British by birth. And Donald Jr. mother was a citizen of the Czech Republic. Barron’s mother is Slovenian. So no way is Trump going there

    I’ve got news for you. The groundwork has been laid and a precedent has been established. With the media the way it is the state of congress no one is going to question the validity of ANYONE running for president of the USA. Obama got away with it and that cannot be reversed. I have no doubt a future president at some point will not have been born here, will run and will win and no one will care least of all the citizens within. Doubt me?

    I personally think Joe Biden is not running Kamala Harris is. He may or not be as stupid as some think. His plan may be to run and resign so she could move into a presidential position very early on. That’s if that were to happen. America does have choices to make. Which direction shall we go?

    no, we’ve seen so much criminality and corruption that nothing will surprise me. Let’s see what John Durham comes up with. Don’t forget he is from CT, Obama’s stolen social security number was from CT and Durham has all the info in front of him, just as AJ Barr

    Kamala Harris is NOT a US Natural Born Citizen. She was a Jamaican Citizen at birth.
    If she did not NATURALIZE she is NOT a US citizen. READ the thread.

    According to Jamaican laws if your parents are Jamaican when you are born no matter where you are, You are a Jamaican Citizen. Wikipedia is great for that kind of information.

    No President or Vice President can hold office when holding duel citizenships.

    The point of being a Natural Born citizen is to remove conflicting allegiances and not be raised by citizens of other countries.
    Born on the soil to two citizens.
    Only non-legal minded people have difficulties with this.

    In response to Dawn Silver: Harris’s parents were here on Student Visas and not residency, so technically, she was not even a citizen, let alone, a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN. The only reason she may claim to be a citizen is that she married an American. Remember, Harris was born in 1964 and her parents were not Naturalized until 1967!
    CASE CLOSED!
