You think the legal authorities fail if they cannot convince you. I think you fail if you cannot convince the legal authorities.

Maybe some day you’ll figure out which way the world works.

Yes, from Blade Bryan's perspective, If you aren't kissing your master's foot, you aren't doing it right. I, on the other hand believe they get their authority from the consent of the governed, and that THEY are the servants and WE are the masters. Regardless of this Legalized nonsensical hair splitting prattle, We must force them to go our way by educating our fellow countrymen as to what is correct, and show them WHY it is correct.

The Word "Nation" is derived from the same root as "Natal" (meaning of birth) and it has nothing to do with dirt.

nation Look up nation at Dictionary.com
" c.1300, from O.Fr. nacion, from L. nationem (nom. natio) "nation, stock, race," lit. "that which has been born," from natus, pp. of nasci "be born" (Old L. gnasci; see genus). Political sense has gradually taken over from racial meaning "large group of people with common ancestry." Older sense preserved in application to N.Amer. Indian peoples (1640s). Nation-building first attested 1907 (implied in nation-builder)."

The Word "Patriot" is derived from the Latin "Patria" which means "land of my father."

patriot Look up patriot at Dictionary.com
1590s, "compatriot," from M.Fr. patriote (15c.), from L.L. patriota "fellow-countryman" (6c.), from Gk. patriotes "fellow countryman," from patrios "of one's fathers," patris "fatherland," from pater (gen. patros) "father," with -otes, suffix expressing state or condition.

Even the LANGUAGE screams out that such as Blade Bryan are either Ignorant and/or Lying.

True. What’s more, the word “natural” goes back to the same origin, by way of the Latin ‘naturalis’, meaning “by birth, according to nature”.

The etymology is yet more evidence that “Natural-born” means by and from birth. The term references neither place nor parentage; only birth itself. “Natural-born United States citizen” means a United States citizen who became a United States citizen at the moment of his or her birth. [Paraphrased from United States v. Wong Kim Ark, 169 U.S. 649 (1898)]

We are. As an American hero and conservative statesman said: “The American people have spoken, and they have spoken clearly.” — John S. McCain, 04 Nov 2008.
