As I said, it is somewhat of a gray area. I thought that the majority of scholars believed that it meant that you had to be born here. However, I could be totally wrong about that. The mainstream media doesn't talk much about the subject. I get some of my info on the subject from WND and granted you need to take things that you read there with somewhat of a grain of salt. At least I know that I need to take it with a grain of salt. Some of the lefties here think that anything they read at the Daily Kos is gospel.
