I see that the Moonbats, for some odd reason, still hang their hat on Minor v. Happersett which was a right to vote case and not a case in which any class of citizen was defined. The only context of "citizen" in that case was a Missouri statute allowed male citizens to vote but not female citizens. Minor sued because she believed that the law was violative of the "privileges and immunities" clause of 14A. The court held that there is no right of ANY suffrage guaranteed in the USCON (the same theory that elected DumbDubv43 5-4).

Your opinions on legal matters are as credible as they are on economic matters... which is to say, your words have all the value of two squirts of warm piss.

You just post shit to derail the threads.

Get a life, Obungler pole-smoker.

Obungler pole-smoker.

MINOR v. HAPPERSETT

And that ain't the half of it! The disingenuous jagoff left out the majority opinion delivered by the chief justice. Excerpt of the good part, below...


Additions might always be made to the citizenship of the United States in two ways: first, by birth, and second, by naturalization. This is apparent from the Constitution itself, for it provides6 that 'no person except a natural-born citizen, or a citizen of the United States at the time of the adoption of the Constitution, shall be eligible to the office of President,'7 and that Congress shall have power 'to establish a uniform rule of naturalization.' Thus new citizens may be born or they may be created by naturalization.

The Constitution does not, in words, say who shall be natural-born citizens. Resort must be had elsewhere to ascertain that. At common-law, with the nomenclature of which the framers of the Constitution were familiar, it was never doubted that all children born in a country of parents who were its citizens became themselves, upon their birth, citizens also. These were natives, or natural-born citizens, as distinguished from aliens or foreigners. Some authorities go further and include as citizens children born within the jurisdiction without reference to the citizenship of their [88 U.S. 162, 168] parents. As to this class there have been doubts, but never as to the first. For the purposes of this case it is not necessary to solve these doubts. It is sufficient for everything we have now to consider that all children born of citizen parents within the jurisdiction are themselves citizens. The words 'all children' are certainly as comprehensive, when used in this connection, as 'all persons,' and if females are included in the last they must be in the first. That they are included in the last is not denied. In fact the whole argument of the plaintiffs proceeds upon that idea.

"For the purposes of this case it is not necessary to solve these doubts. "

Those "doubts" were later "solved" in US v Wong Kim Ark in which the court ruled that such children ARE natural born. Here's two squirts for you too. Warm enough for you?

If that court heard the Obungler case, he'd be back to community organizing in Chitown, after he served his term.

Wong wasn't president, or even on the Democrat ticket. They decided he was a citizen, not a natural born one. Gimmie a quote where they said he's a natural born US citizen.

They decided that he was a citizen by virttire of native birth which is what a natural born citizen is.

The decision uses native and natural born interchangeably. The decision points out that there are only two types of citizens...native, thus natural born and naturalized.

I've actually read the decision. They based their reasoning on Blackstone and the understanding that English Commmon Law was in effect when the USCON was written and ratified:

All persons born in the allegiance of the King are natural-born subjects, and all persons born in the allegiance of the United States are natural-born citizens. Birth and allegiance go together. Such is the rule of the common law, and it is the common law of this country, as well as of England. . . . We find no warrant for the opinion [p663] that this great principle of the common law has ever been changed in the United States. It has always obtained here with the same vigor, and subject only to the same exceptions, since as before the Revolution.

Thanks for the reply, you did indeed come up with something. A quote from a circut court decision (In U. S. v. Rhodes (1866), Mr. Justice Swayne, sitting in the circuit court) mentioned in the Wong Ark decision.

It wouldn't be the first time a court made a bad decision. I recall that at one time the SCOTUS upheld slavery. If the Wong court could misinterpert the 14th amendment to grant citizenship to anchor babies, it must have been easy for them to accept a circut court judges opinion of natural born.

A lot of Marxists on that court, appointed by the co-founder of communism Abe Lincoln.

No, actually he didn't.

Instead, he got you wrapped around the axle, with misdirection- his typical M.O.

Not totally. I realize he'd rather discuss the bad decision (anchor babies) in Wong Ark, but it will be considered in the O'bungler case, whether it really applies or not. It's just one precedent among many.

Unfortunately courts have a bad habit of building on bad decisions, and going even further in the wrong direction.
