Nikki (Nimarata Randhawa) was born in South Carolina, to Punjabi Seikh immigrant parents, who had immigrated in the 1960s (first to Canada, then to South Carolina where she was born). Her father was a professor, so the family moved (India > Canada > USA) because of his academic postings.
Vivek was born and raised in Cincinnati, Ohio, to Indian Hindu immigrant parents who moved to America from Kerala. His father was an engineer, and after they immigrated he went to work for General Electric. Vivek went to St. Xavier's (the Catholic school in Cincinnati) and was valedictorian of his high school class. Then he went to Harvard (BA) and then Yale for law school.
Being born in the US makes one a citizen. The president and vice-president must be "natural born citizens" meaning their parents immigration status matters. Obama, Vivek and Haley don't qualify...neither does Kamala.
I thought Vivek, Hayley and Shiva were ineligible to run as not Natural Born Citizens? Did not stop Obama though
Vivek and Nikki are both American born.

Something about their parents status when they were born?
