Pretty much what I implied with this...

LOL! I know. I was just being persnickity about your having the federal citizenship before the State one.

-----

Aren't I a jus soli Citizen of Texas, since I was born in Texas, and isn't that natural law, not man made law.

Assuming your parents are citizens, you'd be a jus sanguinis one.

From my understanding, the Original Intent was that jus soli citizenship was just the naturalized kind of citizenship and the intention to BE naturalized had to be consciously made....which means children couldn't be naturalized without their parents appling for citizenship.

I never placed my State second.

I'm not a Texan because I'm an American.
I'm an American because I'm a Texan. (second sentence is key as it places Texan first)

IMO you've evaded with that reply. You've evaded once already and I've let you slide. Not again.

I'm not asking about jus sanguinis. I don't want a comment on jus sanguinis. I'm asking only about jus soli.

Because you are a Citizen of the State of Texas, you are a citizen of the united States.
You say...'jus soli' is only acquirable by laws. and yet I don't see that in action here.

Aren't I a jus soli Citizen of Texas, since I was born in Texas, and isn't that natural law, not man made law? (I've made it a question this time)

What "law" made me a jus soli Citizen of Texas"?
You have the handle MamaTexan so show me in our Texas statutes which specific law that is.
