No, you incorrect but pompous idiot, it is not COMMON LAW, it is POSITIVE LAW enacted by Legislation. The VERY OPPOSITE of "COMMON LAW."
When a Law is CODIFIED, it ceases to be "COMMON LAW." Why am I listening to anything you have to say? If you can't even get basic comprehension of terms right, what hope is there for you to get anything right?
Whether you give a damn what a court believes is irrelevant - that is our system of justice and it is not going to change because of your pet peeve.
It will if there become enough of us, and that is exactly my intention. As Franklin said:
"when truth and error have fair play, the former is always an overmatch for the latter."
With enough effort, we can get equal play, and with enough further effort, we will take over the meme. 50 Years from now, people will be saying "Everyone knows that a "natural born citizen" requires TWO AMERICAN PARENTS."
The present definition of NBC is the same as it was in 1787. NBS=NBC=born on US soil.
Except when applied to British Subjects (The Tory Loyalists who REMAINED British Subjects after the war) Indians, Slaves, Diplomats, Women who married Foreign Males, and in at least one case involving a fellow named James McClure.
Oh, and did I mention the Marque de Lafayette? He and all his Male Children's descendants, by an act of the Maryland Legislature, are "natural born citizens" forever. (Though NONE of them were born on the soil.)
You're theory also includes several million "Anchor Babies" and "birth tourists."
Not much of a consistency you got there. :)
