A quick thought and question to see if anyone reads this:
Mitt Romney's father was born in Mexico, where his father had brought the family to live in a Mormon community that included polygamy. The family previously lived in the states, so this was just a short sojourn in the big scheme of things.
But I thought George Romney was a candidate for president in the 1960s. How could that be if he wasn't born here?
I guess this Wikipedia article explains it, but that's not exactly defnitive. It's totally new to me that George Romney was considered eligible as a "natural born citizen" even though he clearly wasn't. In light of the Kenyan Birther stuff, it brings in all kinds of angles.
Doesn't really matter at all, but I was just wondering....
