Is anyone else wondering why it took so long for this precedent to surface?

I thought lawyers were more effective than taking 3 years to find a direct precedent.

What complaint/court filing has to happen to make sure this precedent is enforced?

This Precedent and a dollar might buy him a cup of coffee at the Wawa.

Now you see it now you don’t.

Minor v. Happerset is hardly fresh evidence. It's been discussed here many times.

Because it’s the usual Birther misunderstanding, mischaracterizing, misinterpreting and misrepresenting of law?

Because it's not a precedent. It's dicta. Dicta are not now, and never have been, legal precedent.
