I’ve read the case several times. Wong is a citizen. he is a citizen because he is born here, and his parents don’t fit into the exceptions. There are only two kinds of citizens. The ones born here, and the naturalized one. Throughout the case they rely on English common law that being born in the country makes one a natural born subject. That is the same thing as a natural born citizen.
The Indiana case is reasoned out the same way. I think I gave you that link. If not, here it is. Pages 13-18. Short, sweet, simple, if you’re born here, you’re a natural born citizen.

Where were Native Americans in the equation?
Were they determined by the Wong decision, or was that not adjusted until 1924?
How about Chinese up until 1952?
I thought Wong decided ALL citizenship issues, Parsley ...

Your “leap of faith” with legal definitions is as laughable as
your “leaps of faith” with LYING CROOKS who provide an
UNRELIABLE document to MORE LYING CROOKS
that’s never been seen by a Judge in a Court of Law.
Parsi, you place WAY too much BLIND FAITH in the people who
deserve it the least!
Which says "...see also, e.g., Diaz-Salazar v. I.N.S., 700 F.2d 1156, 1160 (7th Cir. 1983) (noting in its recitation of the facts that despite the fact father was not a citizen of the United States, he had children who were natural-born citizens of the United States)"

These Indiana judges concluded by using an INS deportation case to quote in their dismissal which was accepted as fact by the sitting circuit Judge Cudahy, appointed by Jimmy Carter, that is irrelevant to his deportation case. The NBC statement probably originally came from some ill-informed paralegal who worked for the lawyer of the illegal alien.
You've got to be kidding me Parsy if you think this Indiana court case, you love to post, could really stand up to any scrutiny. These guys threw ink to paper just to sweep this case under the rug. If I can shoot holes in it from the early hours in the morning think of what a good team would do with it. It is pure folly barely worth the paper it's written on.
You’re a troll. You outed yourself this week.
