I'm satisfied that your responses have demonstrated as much as mine that looking to an eighteenth century Swiss philosopher (Vattel) to define natural born citizen is more a matter of choice than compulsion. For me, it takes more than a showing that some of society's elite had either French or English versions of Vattel's book in their libraries to bind Americans (then or now) to Vattel's "special little meaning" for the NBC clause.

I encourage everyone to develop his own views and to present as effectively as he can his NBC pitch to the voters/electors, the folks who select our presidents. It's obviously an important issue.

Good luck. ;-)

“I’m satisfied that your responses...”

I’m glad you’re satisfied. That’s been on my bucket list for quite a while now.

Tuesday garbage long elephant, errant. :~)

(That means “Good luck to you, too.” in liberalspeak because that’s what I want those words to mean. The smiley face means “smiley face”.)
