What is the citizenship requirement of the vice president?

The citizenship requirements for Vice President are the same as for President; he or she must be a citizen of the USA and a "natural-born" citizen. The Constitution doesn't actually define what that means but Title 8 of the U.S. Code fills in the gaps left by the Constitution. Section 1401defines the following as people who are "citizens of the United States at birth:"Anyone born inside the United States *Any Indian or Eskimo born in the United States, provided being a citizen of the U.S. does not impair the person's status as a citizen of the tribeAny one born outside the United States, both of whose parents are citizens of the U.S., as long as one parent has lived in the U.S.Any one born outside the United States, if one parent is a citizen and lived in the U.S. for at least one year and the other parent is a U.S. nationalAny one born in a U.S. possession, if one parent is a citizen and lived in the U.S. for at least one yearAny one found in the U.S. under the age of five, whose parentage cannot be determined, as long as proof of non-citizenship is not provided by age 21Any one born outside the United States, if one parent is an alien and as long as the other parent is a citizen of the U.S. who lived in the U.S. for at least five years (with military and diplomatic service included in this time)A final, historical condition: a person born before 5/24/1934 of an alien father and a U.S. citizen mother who has lived in the U.S.* There is an exception in the law - the person must be "subject to the jurisdiction" of the United States. This would exempt the child of a diplomat, for example, from this provision.
