The
opinion is offered about Obama and Cruz that to contest dual
U.S./foreign citizenship is lame: “…a lame claim that he is a
dual citizen.”
It
seems that some people still refuse to consider and adduce “natural
born Citizen” author John Jay, who became the first Supreme Court
Chief Justice in President Washington’s first administration in
1789, and who knew something about the original intent of words and
the legal implications of those words.
The
issue, no pun intended, is not positive law but natural law; not
“how” a child is born, head first or c-section, but “what” a
child is “at” birth “by” birth, by simply being born.
If
a child is born c-section OR head first, the child is a “natural
born Citizen by birth when born with ONLY singular U.S. citizenship
of ONLY one nation which is possible by ONLY being born on U.S. soil
ONLY to two U.S. citizen married parents.
Dual
U.S./foreign citizenship, which is the citizenship status that Sen.
Cruz acquired by statute (INA: ACT Sec. 301) “at”
birth in Canada by being born to ONLY one U.S. citizen
parent definitely was not John Jay’s “original genesis original
intent” for underlining the word “born” in “natural born
Citizen” in his note to this friend George Washington.
Dual
U.S./foreign citizenship would have been incongruent and incoherent
to the 1787 framers of Article II Section 1 clause 5, and to the
states’ ratifiers, including “natural born Citizen” author and
New York ratifier John Jay.
When
will the “natural born Citizen” new meaning neo-birthers admit
that John Jay’s “natural born Citizen” original genesis
original intent meaning was intended to be perpetual, and the
perpetual original meaning of ONLY singular U.S. citizenship can not
be changed by any statute from 1790 to 2015.
It
was not changed by the 1952 Immigration and Nationality Act–INA:
ACT Sec. 301 [8 U.S.C. 1401], clauses “a” and “g”–NATIONALS
AND CITIZENS OF THE UNITED STATES AT
BIRTH.
It
was not changed by the 1868 Fouteenth Amendment and the first six
words of the first sentence of Section 1, “All persons born or
naturalized...are citizens...”.
It
was not changed by the 1898 U.S. v. Wong Kim Ark Court decision that
held that the original intent of the 1868 Fourteenth Amendment
included, the Court simply “declared,” that Wong Kim Ark was a
“citizen” with the implicit ability to vote, and as some
2008-2015 Obama new meaning neo-birthers and 2014-2015 Rubio, Gindal
and Cruz new meaning neo-birthers assert, eligible to be POTUS.
The
“natural born Citizen” new meaning neo-birthers don’t have John
Jay’s “original genesis original intent” as a defense so they
simply ignore the “nbC” author. That is par for the course from
2008 to 2015.
But,
hey, we’re still friends and fellow Americans, even if the “nbC”
new meaning neo-birthers have a lame defense for their 2000s theory
that ONLY one U.S. citizen parent, which implies ONLY dual
U.S./foreign citizenship, makes a person "...eligible to the
Office of President" whilc ONLY singular U.S. citizenship and
ONLY two U.S. citizen married parents is one U.S. citizen parent too
much, superfluous and irrelevant. If ONLY one is necessary, then ONLY
two is not necessary to consider.
Right?
John
Jay is spinning in his grave.
