Again, you are trying to legitimize your usurper using “current” US statements of the State Dept. Show me where they say this from 1961-1968. Perkins v. Elg was the most current SCOTUS case at the time and thus the precedent for this case.
Just another lame argument coming from one who didn’t even know the difference between “analogous” & “synonymous” in the WKA deciding opinion that has been misinterpreted for over a 100 yrs.


Ah yes, “Perkins v Elg,” decided by the Supreme Court of the United States in 1939 and holding that a child born in the United States to alien parents and raised abroad retains U.S. citizenship until the age of majority, and at that point continues to retain U.S. citizenship if he or she elects to retain it, and elects to return to the United States and assume the duties of a U.S. citizen.
Thanks so much for reminding me about the high court’s ruling in Perkins v Elg.

Ah, yes thank you for the corroboration...

if he or she elects . . .

It's that pesky positive act a person with foreign allegiance must take upon the coming of age. As I asked: ...when did Obama or his mother formally renounce this foreign citizenship that has now been verified by the US State Dept? Where are those records?

“Ah yes, “Perkins v Elg,” decided by the Supreme Court of the United States in 1939 and holding that a child born in the United States to alien parents.......”

As usual for your posts I stopped reading right there......

Elizibeth Elg”s parents were Swedish immigrants who became Naturalized American Citizens prior to her birth, and who, subsequent to Elizebth’s birth (actually a few years later), re-patriated to Sweden taking Elizabeth with them.

The Court held that Elizebeth, the actions of her parents not with standing, was not only a birthright American citizen because of her birth in the US, but met the higher standard for NBC because both of her parents were US citizens at the time of her birth. Born in country to 2 citizen parents......sigh

As usual you distort both the facts of the case and the courts ruling to advance your agenda of Obama apology.....I wish you would stop posting this twisted nonsense, but then how would you make a living? Does trolling pay well?

BTW KWA established birthright citizenship for people born in the US to non-citizen parents whose residency in the US met the restriction as spelled out in the 14th amendment.

That is born citizenship for non Natural Born Citizens....under to legal concept of jus solis.

This is a totally false “interpretation” of a judicial case.

This postor ia famous for this kind of deception.

This postor works for the White House under Cass Sundsteen.
