when leftists support illegal voting, it is THEY who are lighting democracy on fire!

Every illegal vote cast in an election cancels out an eligible vote.

For “democracy” substitute “our absolute hold on power” then it all makes sense.

Not a problem. Vivek is a natural born citizen (NBC):

NBC is a legal issue. Vivek Ramaswamy was born on August 8, 1985 in Cincinnati, Ohio to parents who were in the U.S. legally but not U.S. citizens. The U.S. Supreme Court (SC) has ruled that someone who is born on U.S. soil is an NBC if at the time of his birth, his parents were in the U.S. legally but not U.S. citizens. Therefore, according to the mandatory legal authority of sound constitutionally-based SC ruling and precedent, Vivek is an NBC.

Since around 1900, (SC) rulings have become less and less valid because SC has gradually moved away from basing their decisions on the Constitution as written and originally understood and intended. But their ruling on NBC appear to be based on sound application of the Constitution.

In Perkins v. Elg, 99 F. 2d 408, Court of Appeals, Dist. of Columbia Circuit 1938, the Court of Appeals noted as part of the basis for their decision that...

United States v. Wong Kim Ark, 169 U.S. 649, 18 S. Ct. 456, 42 L. Ed. 890, 1898 [found that] [W]hen the Constitution was adopted the people of the United States were the citizens of the several States for whom and for whose posterity the government was established. Each of them was a citizen of the United States at the adoption of the Constitution, and all free persons thereafter born within one of the several States became by birth citizens of the State and of the United States.

It appears the Supreme Court in Elg (1939) agrees with Ark (1898).

(Both Marie Elizabeth Elg and Wong Kim Ark were born on U.S. soil to parents who were here legally but not U.S. citizens.)

Again, the Constitution is properly applied as written and ORIGINALLY UNDERSTOOD and intended. What matters is what the ratifiers of the Constitution considered an NBC was. The Supreme Court decisions based on the good-faith and sound finding of original understanding of NBC in the Constitution is, therefore, legal precedent concerning NBC. Thus, Vivek should be considered an NBC.

Some argue that the term "NBC" is not specifically used in Ark or Elg, but these cases revolve around citizenship based on birth on U.S. soil, which is exactly what NBC is. An NBC is a citizen automatically because he was born on U.S. soil. He is “naturally” and automatically a citizen needing no further processing to become a U.S. citizen. He becomes a citizen under “natural” (birth) circumstances, exactly as Elg, Ark, and now Vivek.

An "anchor baby" refers to a baby making ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS citizens. Irrelevant in Vivek's case.

Wong Kim Ark was never affirmed a natural born Citizen. He’s a 14th Amendment 8 U.S. Code § 1201 statutory Citizen. If it takes a statute to make you a citizen at birth, that’s not natural born.

To hear the governor of California used a phrase that includes, “Lighting xxxxx, on fire,” is hilarious.

Pretty boy” Newsom, not even an idle thought in that head.

The Ark rationale was based on original understating in the Constitution of NBC, not a statute.

Thank God the Democrats are saving Democracy by letting in millions of illegals, many of whom are lawless gang members and terrorists, locking up political dissenters, spying on domestic citizens and depleting our weapons stockpile to arm Nazis overseas.

Read my reply to you where I summarized it. Otherwise read the opinion itself.

If “democracy” means 51% get to do whatever the H. they want — expropriation, lawfare, de-banking, etc — we’d best get rid of it.

If you ask what he did all they can do is act with emotions and can’t site one fact.
