Re: ATM's.......
well... if you look at the German propensity for stringing words together...
separating the word into its 2 components "Wiener" (possesive of "Wien" - more
commonly in English referred to as "Vienna") and "Schnitzel" (diminutive of "cut or
slice" but more commonly used to describe a certain method of preparation of small
"schnits" (cutlets) of meat), it is used as a description of a "veal cutlet" -
whereas the "erschnit" is merely a "schnit" of the whole word... ;-)

Is that a question? If so I refer you to the Federalist Papers, which may discuss it
(it's been years since I red them).

if both of your parents are US citizens you are a US citizen the moment you are born.

Re: Presidential qualifications? OT
nope... US Citizen from the moment of birth... doing the paperwork promptly will make
it easier later on though.
this person (the child born to 2 US citizens abroad) may also be a citizen of the
country in which he/she was born... but not necessarily.

That's pure conjecture. I have my doubts; the Austrians have always had a strong
patriotic streak and considered the Austro-Hungarian Empire far superior to
Bismarck's Reich. In fact, even Germany was still pretty loosely held together until
Hitler forced the submission of the laender to Berlin's authority.

Re: Presidential qualifications? OT
I believe that there is a requirement that citizenship passes to children only if the
parent has been a resident of the US for a period of time. I have forgotten the time
but remember something on the order of 6-8 years. Thus the child of a US citizen who
has always resided abroad will not qualify.

I think that it only applies if you have not been a US resident for some number of
years. I'm not sure how many I remember 6-8 years.

Of course it's discriminatory. But the US constitution is allowed to be
discriminatory.

Right, but in my example the parents have not been US residents at any point in their
lives, which presumably is less than 6-8 years...
