Poster Comment: My research summary: Mitt Romney's paternal great-frandfather, Miles Park Romney, and other Mormons rejected the Edmund Act of 1882, which declared polygamy a felony. They moved as fugitives into Mexico in 1884. Mitt Romney's paternal grandparents were both born in Utah. His paternal grandfather, Gaskell Romney, was about 13-years old at the time his family crossed the border to live in Mexico and his paternal grandmother, Anna Amelia Pratt, was about 8-years old when her family moved there as well. Mitt Romney's father, George Wilcken Romney, was born to them in Mexico in 1907 and they moved to the U.S. in 1912, when he was 5 years old, to flee the Mexican Revolution -- apparently without immigration documents or citizenship prodedures for their family. Until then, they had chosen to stay in Mexico upon adulthood, marry and have children there in permanent residence. Even though Mexicans/foreigners are under the mistaken impression that their children must become citizens automatically if born on our soil, an American parent is expected to meet strict requirements as to their age and number of years of residency in this country, registry of the child's birth with a U.S. Consulate/Embassy, passport filings for the child -- that sort of thing -- in order to pass citizenship to their own children born abroad; as is questioned, among other things, in Obama's eligibility case per his mother. At the very least, whether Mitt Romney's father was officially counted as a citizen of Mexico at birth or not, neither of his father's parents would meet such U.S. residency criteria for his father to have been considered a foreign-soil born American citizen through them. Those are the legal lines of questioning per that timeframe which apply to Mitt Romney's eligibility or not for the office of America's President. Without documentation on the citizenship status of his father, Mitt Romney cannot meet the natural born citizenship criteria. On a sidenote, his maternal grandfather, Harold Arundel LaFount, was born in the New Romney/Romney Marsh coastal area of Southeast England at Birmingham, co. Warwick/Wickshire. This is a link on the old Workhouse/Poorhouse/Prison there, which was one of several that issued its own specially minted currency/workhouse-tokens for relief of the poor during a national shortage of coins around 1812: The Workhouse - Birmingham, Warwickshire. This is a link for The Workhouse - Romney Marsh, Kent. And this is a pic of the old Walt Disney program that some posters might remember: The Scarecrow of Romney Marsh.

Without documentation on the citizenship status of his father, Mitt Romney cannot meet the natural born citizenship criteria. Good research. I wonder if we will ever get a legitimate President again? I plan on voting for Ron Paul, no matter what. ;)
BTP Holdings: Good research. I wonder if we will ever get a legitimate President again? I plan on voting for Ron Paul, no matter what. ;) I appreciate your two thumbs up. :) The stunt to install a probable non-natural born citizen into the White House so as to globalize the office of our Presidency has been pulled several times now, Romney's father being one of the likely unqualified. I, too, plan on voting for Ron Paul, no matter what. ;)
