The McCreery v. Somerville Funeral – Maskell And Gray To Attend – Minor v. Happersett To Preside.

Grab a cup of java, put your thinking caps on, kick back and relax. We are going to be here for a while. Focus. Below, you will be privy to a true and proper revision of United States Supreme Court history.

One of the foundational building blocks for Justice Gray’s opinion in U.S. v. Wong Kim Ark is the case, McCreery v. Somerville, 22 US 354 (1824), to which Gray made a fatally flawed assumption based upon his failure to acknowledge a judicially recognized misquote. Then, Justice Gray compounded his initial error by creating a separately deceptive quotation.

These errors completely sully his analysis of McCreery. Gray failed to inform his opinion in Wong Kim Ark with the fact that the U.S Supreme Court had questioned that opinion in 1881, just prior to Gray having joined the Court.

This is just the start~ In one of Donofrio's longer postings, he quite literally begins to unravel the subtle and not so subtle manipulations of Supreme Court Justice Gray, who wrote the majority opinion in Wong Kim Ark, the most commonly referred to SCOTUS decision attempting to justify Obama's constitutional qualifications.

However, Gray was appointed to the court by a man precisely like Obama, Chester Arthur, who was ALSO not a Natural Born Citizen. Gray took the opportunity to protect his own lifetime appointment to the court by protecting Arthur as much as he could. He was successful.

That is, until Leo Donofrio started digging into Gray's REAL motivations over 100 years later, and digging into the minutiae of the decisions Gray quotes in WKA.

This really is a fascinating read. I cannot imagine how many hours in brick and mortar libraries this took, but it has to be huge.

Thank you Leo!!!

PS: Someone ping the lawyers in the Georgia case! They NEED this information.

[Danae]

Ping to the Usual Suspects!

Leo has unveiled a masterpiece. All Obot’s beware, that house of glass you have been hangin’ in.... is about to get hit by an avalanche.

Hi Danae and thanks for the Ping!

I wish I had some time to read this now but will have to later, looks very interesting. Seeing the cards start to fall would be a wonderful way to start the New Year!!

I’m looking forward to the comments too!

Justice Gray fashioned the Wong Kim Ark decision to fit his own agenda. He also mis-interpreted Calvin’s Case [1608], which was oft-cited in the opinion.

In regard to Calvin’s Case, it is also interesting to note that Lord Coke [who owed his appointment to King James I] was looking out for his patron too. The decision in Calvin’s Case gave James I legitimacy as Sovreign of BOTH England and Scotland ...

Look for the following about halfway down the page:

NUMBER 8.

A motion in parliament, 13 Elizab. about the succession to the crown; according to K. Henry VIII. his will.

***

Basically, Parliament [in about 1573] was debating who would succeed Elizabeth I, should she remain childless. Some of the potential heirs being considered were children of fathers who were not British Subjects.

Read past the paragraphs devoted to Henry’s will and you will find:

“But let us seek if we can find out a reason to maintain this opinion, that every person born in England, of what nation soever the parents be, shall be free. For positive law written, that is contained in the book of the Exposition of the Terms of the Laws of England: (which of what authority it is, I know not.).”

Note: The author of said book was John Rastell, who was the first to state that children born to alien fathers while they resided in England were English [ie: natural-born]. However, Rastell HAD NO PRECEDENT to back his assertion.

AND [further on the Web Page, Parliament stated]:

“Moreover, statute there is none to maintain this opinion, that saith, every person is English that is born in England, of whatsoever nation his parents be.”

Note: This is where Parliament acknowledges that there is no statute stating that children born to alien fathers while they resided in England were English.

It is best to read Number 8 entirely - even though it is cumbersome. It is an interesting read.

Thanks for the ping!

Good work Leo! Keep at it!

[little jeremiah]

Thanks for the ping. And a Huge Thank you to Leo Donofrio. Someone should get this to Joe Arpaio and his possee, too.

[Cicero]

A long read, but it seems evident that there have been several stages of falsification at work here, beginning with Justice Gray and continuing with further shennanigans in the matter of Barack Hussein Obama.

[Danae]

I will read that! Thanks! It does look really interesting at first glance. I am under the weather atm, so I am keeping my forays online to a minimum. Nasty cold round 2. meh.

Thank you for the link, I have it bookmarked!

~D

[Danae]

If I knew how to contact those folks directly. If I did, I would. I suppose sending links to the websites might have a shot I suppose... (thinking of Georgia regarding that as well)

[Godebert]

Excellent!

[Danae]

Just speculating here...

What do you think the odds are that in any opinion they write or co-write that Kagan and Sotomayor will cite Wong Kim Ark? Two justices who were in the SAME position that Justice Gray was when he wrote it? Is that not some twisted irony??

If Obama is unconstitutional, then his appointments to the bench are AS WELL. Kagan and Sotomayor can kiss those robes goodbye.

I wonder what the odds would be, that they would cite WKA extensively for Obama?

Umm hummm...

Leo just took that line of defense right off the table. Oooooo this one leaves a mark don’t you think?

[Mortrey]

Bookmarked.

[Texas Fossil]

Thanks for the great link.

"Ping to the Usual Suspects!"

Thank you very much for the Ping!

Does this mean that Wong Kim Ark itself will now be challenged also? That sounds like a whole new 50-gallon drum of worms. In any event WKA doesn't do anything to obviate the Minor vs Happersett definition of Natural Born Citizen, does it?

I mean, it's great info with which to demolish the WKA-grants-NBC-status "arguments" of Obots, but from a legal/judicial standpoint, what is the mileage to be gotten out of this piece? Honest, FRiendly question.

[little jeremiah]

There must be someone who has an “in” with Arpaio. Hmm. freemail coming your way.

[Spaulding]

I believe we are seeing, as Mr. Donofrio pointed out long ago, the extent of the corruption of our legal system. Mr's Donofrio and Apuzzo, have helped us to see through the fog of misdirection. Supporters of Obama, regardless of their party affiliations, are most clearly identified by their cleverness in obscuring our historical legal foundations. None of our pundits has the will, the courage, and probably not the power to persuade by repeating the truth so simply stated in Minor v. Happersett, and repeated in dozens of Supreme Court Cases. Those who probably know the truth are too beholden to government tax breaks - the law schools, and to government business - most attorneys, and to the FCC and unions - radio pundits, some of whom have the backgrounds to have understood the admittedly obscure path to the truth.

Leo Donofrio has thought carefully and well. As he has explained, it does take time for a reader to grasp the arguments. The second or third time through Minor v. Happersett, the care and certainty of Justice Waite's arguments began to penetrate. This is splendid thinking. Mr. Donofrio has mentioned that he is collating his research into a book. I have never spoken with the man, but suggest, as a believer in rewarding talent and effort, that it would help bring the argument unavoidably to the attention of the public if his book were to sell very well.

The media will assiduously avoid careful analysis which could inform the many citizens too worried about the collapse pf our economy being conducted by Obama and his cadre. Having no idea at what stage Mr. Donofrio is in constructing his book, or books, this writer would eagerly pre-purchase a copy, and I suspect I am not alone. In fact I suspect Mr. Donofrio's works, though this was clearly not his motive, would be a best seller, addressing what the “pundits’ avoid. From the left we expect dishonesty, but our "conservative" writers have joined the left, showing clear disdain for the law recited in dozens of cases, and enunciated by so many of our greatest legal minds.

Knowing a number of people who have self published quality books, that has become a viable path to publishing, lacking only the marketing clout of a tradicional publisher. Amazon will print to order, and the quility is excellent.

But a Regnery or similar publisher might ease the task with editing assistance. The point is not to make Mr. Donofrio wealthy, though from the work he has done it is well deserved. The discovery of Chester Arthur's ineligibility was, remarkably, completely ignored by state-run media, because they are protecting their monarch. We all benefit from the truth. Mr. Donofrio has clearly honed his legal tools. Very few practice constitutional law. To the the careful lay person, Minor is clear to a fault. Wong Kim Ark is murky to a fault, and Mr. Donofrio is explaining how and why. These analysis have enormous consequences, but, having read the legal sparring for over three years, Mr. Donofrio’s intellect and pursuit of the truth is unquestionable.

I believe we at FR can become more active participants in the education of other citizens by buying his book in advance. Goodness knows most of us have a recent shelf of law and history books. Mr. Donofrio already has the material for the most important legal book to our generations, and perhaps to that of our children.

Only the Indiana Supreme Court recognized Mr. Donofrio’s remarkable historical discovery of Chester Arthur's fathers British citizenshp, though their recognition only illustrated the corruption of our legal system. They inferred that Arthur's alien father was known to the court and citizens in the 19th Century, a blatent lie, and that Arthur was allowed to take office knowing his non-conformance to common-law. Until revealed by Mr. Donofrio and his sister, there is no evidence anyone suspected Arthur's father as not a citizen when he was born.

Of course the court in the Ankeny case had not read Donofrio’s analysis of Minor v Happersett, a decision that only just preceeded Garfied’s death, making it implausible that Arthur's enemies wouldn't have removed him had he not misdirected everyone by hiding his birth certificate. So Mr. Donofrio’s scholarship has only been recognized by enemies of the truth, or cronies of Obama.

To the point is my suggestion that we at FR encourage Mr. Donofrio to write his book with pre-orders. Either a publisher comes forward or someone with publishing experience steps forward to help organize, with the clear understanding that our intention is to free Mr. Donofrio, as publishers do, with an advance based upon the pre-purchase, and with the clear belief that the finished book will dominate Amazon and NYT sales after it is published. This will force the definitions into the public, stopping the usual “There is no question that he is a citizen”, or unresolvable discussions about “Photo Shopped” documents by World Net Daily, which has no doubt sold lots of subscriptions with their manifold discoveries of documents or forgeries or....

The legal quality of Mr. Donofrio’s analysis may not draw out the usual professors, those whose public essays metamorphose with the political winds, but they might. For law professors the issue is the continuation of generous income and benefit packages, which is no crime, unless the implication is that justice is for sale, like predictions of human-caused global warming are for sale by scientists whose incomes depend upon the DOE and NSF. Lets buy the services of the legal mind, and an excellent one, that has already unlocked the well hidden secret of clear precedent, affirming the definition understood by our framers. The common-law and common language were the only source of definitions for terms used in the Constitution, other than the one definition “Treason” in Article III section 3. But, while evidence is that Larry Tribe, Obama’s Harvard Con law professor knew of the precedence, citing WKA but not Minor, when Minor was Justice Gray's first citation, it took and honest attorney to explain the truth. (Tribe only avoided court over his blatant plagiarization of another author through the protection of Elena Kagen).

Without Mr. Donofrio we would probably not know of the collusion between Soros’ Chief Informoration Officer at Center for American Progress and Cornell, or of the blatant and probably criminal scrubbing of “Full Text” Supreme Court case copies hosted by the most frequently accessed legal archive on the Internet, Justia.com. Disrespect for the Constitution isn't just about socialism. It is about big money, trillions of dollars to keep the cronies in position to dole out private tax money to government unions. Reading Mr. Donofrio is not enough. If George can fund a dozen anti-constitutional political corporations, most of which also receive our tax money, we need to support the most successful expositor of truth we have.

The Heritage Foundation, Hoover, Hillsdale, Mark Levin's little group, have failed to address the eligibility issue, either with clarity, or at all. They have shared the tactics of the left, ridicule, and in the process, dismissed Chief Justice Marshall, Chief Justice Waite, 14th Amendment John Bingham, John Jay, John Hamilton and George Washington, and Thomas Jefferson who made Vattel our first law book. Let's act to help unravel the fog cast by leisure class socialists who knew well that the truth would not be easy to find. For 501C3 organizations conservatism is a business whose proprietors place their subscriptions, and popularity in the Washington or San Francisco media above their fealty to our founders and framers.

Mr. Donofrio once suggested that Obama supporters probably knew the truth about Chester Arthur. They certainly knew the truth about Minor v. Happersett or they wouldn't have proved the unreliability of “free” access to legal documents by editing them.

A number of FR members appear to know Mr. Donofrio, Danae, Rxsid. It may be that Mr. Donofrio will not want to be involved in a commitment to deliver, a contract. Mr. Donofrio already has delivered, with more to come as he opens up Wong Kim Ark. Perhaps his book is simply a lightly edited collation of his current product? This writer has probably already betrayed influence many decades ago by Ayn Rand, that morality demands the rewarding of excellence. This legal analysis may and should have international ramifications. Perhaps we can discuss how we can insure the Mr. Donofrio’s work, gets the exposure needed, openly? We want to employ the talents of Leo Donofrio. Like publishers, we want him to have as much time to organize, compile and edit his work as he needs, keeping in mind that next November we will have another election. His work requires traveling to explore and confirm paper archives. He has been assisted by others whose compensation should be at Mr. Donofrio’s discretion. His editorial help should be paid.

Let's do it right. Mark Levin can market his popularization of important legal philosophers for three hours every day, while dismissing eligibility and avoiding the great jurists who struggled with and resolved the issue so essential to defining our republic, the meaning of citizenship. While we can guess at Levin's fears, Leo Donofrio has brought constitutional law to life, analyzing legal history directly, not that there is anything wrong with Fredrick Bastiat. It is simply the truth that Vattel, whom no pundit will mention other than to point out his country of origin, was by far the most cited legal reference during the first forty years of our nation, and our first law book. Mr. Donofrio's analysis is also clarifying the legal foundations which led to the interpretation creating anchor babies of the children of illegal immigrants.

This is a Constitutional crisis, with another election approaching, and no one willing to talk openly about eligibility. Our supposed conservatives are blithly promoting as vice president another man, Marco Rubio, whose non-citizen parents at birth will provide continued cover for Obama, just as McCain did before Rubio. We need to help Mr. Donofrio help us all by making sure his analysis becomes a best seller. I hope he gets rich from the sales, but want his book published for me and my family. Mr. Donofrio's efforts could make the lives of my children, not to mention what is left of mine and my wife's, stop converging to life in Cuba and Venezuela. The wisdom of our framers in requiring a president born to parents with sole allegiance to our republic, citizens, could not be more clear. Ignoring the law, when we are a nation of laws, is destroying our nation.
