Goldwater Citizenship Challenge Roots on Ballot
A New York publisher seeks to bar Barry Goldwater from the California presidential ballot arguing he is not a natural born citizen. The suit, filed in two courts, cites Goldwater’s 1909 birth in Arizona Territory before statehood. Attorney Melvin M. Belli, hired by Fact magazine’s Ralph Ginsberg, filed the action. Constitutional experts say no court has ruled if territorial births count as natural born.
