So does that mean it's up to the individual states to determine who gets admitted? If so that seems to run contrary contrary to the arguments made in the original post that no state should be able to admit a foreigner that the other states may find objectionable.

There is nothing in the OP suggesting what you state above. Was there some specific wording which gave you that impression?

Was there some specific wording which gave you that impression?

How about:

"an undesirable person could be granted citizenship in one State and then move to another State and be entitled to that State's privileges and immunities without the State's consent!

Or:

"Chief Justice Taney summarized the very object of allowing the federal government to set the rules for naturalization as follows: "Its sole object was to prevent one State from forcing upon all the others and upon the General Government, persons as citizens whom they were unwilling to admit as such.""

Maybe I misunderstand your argument but then why include these passages?
