There was a federal statute at the time of Obozo’s birth that denied to American mothers under 21 years of age the ability to pass nbc status to their children if born of fathers who were foreign nationals. There seems no rational basis for this policy which denied to American mothers under 21 what was not denied to American fathers of similar age when children were born for foreign national mothers. That statute would be declared unconstitutional in a heartbeat by today’s fedcourts.
Yes, and I disagree. I won’t argue that the law supports events, I just disagree with the laws.
