Based upon the language of Article II, Section 1, Clause 4 and the guidance provided by Wong Kim Ark, we conclude that persons born within the borders of the United States are natural born Citizens for Article II, Section 1 purposes, regardless of the citizenship of their parents. Just as a person born within the British dominions [was] a natural-born British subject at the time of the framing of the U.S. Constitution, so too were those born in the allegiance of the United States [] natural-born citizens.

It will have to go to to the Indiana Supreme Court first. They, like the US Supreme Court, can hear it, or not. Only after they get a shot, wether they take it or not, can the case be appealed to the US Supreme Court.
I’m wondering if as the above excerpt says accurately from the dismissal, if the court intended to say “Article II, Section 1, Clause 4” or perhaps meant to say “Article II, Section 1, Clause 5”.
If I am correct then the appeal was not properly dismissed.
Can anybody contact the appellants and ask for verification?
