He's partly right. No quote from Vattel was submitted in any discussion on natural-born citizenship.

Partly right?

If he is 'partly right' then you imply that he is also, partly wrong.

Would you be so kind as to explain where you find the 'Wig' is wrong?

Or perhaps you mean that his statement(s)are incomplete in some way?

Could you elucidate further what you meant by "He's partly right" in regards to the wiggler's assertions.

Thanks!

He was incorrect in his statement that Vattel was never quoted during the proceedings of the Constitutional Convention. Vattel was quoted on one topic relating to state sovereignty. His position on natural-born citizenship was never mentioned, so EnderWiggins would be correct in saying that Vattel's definition of that was never discussed during the convention.
