The States of this Union, as States, are subject to all the voluntary and customary law of nations.*
If, for the decision of any question, the proper rule is to be found in the law of nations, that law adheres to the subject . It follows the subject through, no matter into what place, high or low.
You cannot escape the law of nations in a case where it is applicable. The air of every judicature is full of it.
It pervades the courts of law of the highest character, and the court of pie poudre; ay, even the constable’s court. It is part of the universal law.
It may share the glorious eulogy pronounced by Hooker upon law itself, that there is nothing so high as to be beyond the reach of its power, nothing so low as to be beneath its care.
If any question be within the influence of the law of nations, the law of nations is there.
If the law of comity does not exist between the States of this Union, how can it exist between a State and the subjects of any foreign sovereignty?

haha look post 101
Obot trolls make my blood boil..they must be squashed.
She says she spoke with Abercrombie and he says the COLB is a valid HI birth certificate. As if it wasn’t out there for 2+ years in December 2010 when newly inaugurated HI Gov Abercrombie said he was going to produce the real long form certificate and shut those birthers down! Why would he have said that if the COLB was the real thing?
Abercrombie’s statements were made during the period Obama and his family were vacationing right there in HI, and Abercrombie, Ann Stanley and Barack Sr’s old buddy who remembers BHO as a baby, couldn’t get him to sign off on an authorization to release the document?
Yeah, that makes sense.
Something is wrong with this being called a new requirement. I did passports for my kids many years ago and I specifically remember I was required to submit a long form certified birth certificate. Short forms were specifically excluded.
funny how they can FIND what they want to find, when it suits them....
“x” is a mitigator for Obama. A softer touch type troll.
>> “ I mean, if being born here to a US citizen mother isn’t natural enough, even though the law says it is...” <<
.
Sorry, the law says no such thing. I stopped reading there since if you would willfully lie about that, you probably lied in the rest too.
Maybe the requirement was loosened up in the interim, then tightened against recently.
I only knew about this because I went to get a passport using my old short-form bc. The passport man told me “Good thing you came in today; tomorrow this short-form BC wouldn’t be accepted.”
Hmm.
CHILDREN OF CITIZENS SHALL BE CONSIDERED NATURAL BORN This has always meant both parents are required to be citizens.
If that definition of NBC is well accepted everyone would have known at the outset that Obama was not eligible since he has always claimed to be the son of a Kenyan, and used his name throughout his political career.
The "Children of Citizens" definition is not generally accepted or Obama would never have been allowed to run anywhere. There have been discussions on FR where several old cases and different scenarios for NBC were addressed.
The required aged to run for president is established and accepted. We don't have candidates ignoring that, but the legal definition of NBC is neither established nor accepted, or this current situation with Obama would not exist.
true obama was not questioned on his open violation of Article 2(natural born citizen clause) of the Constitution,but he was also not questioned .....
his birth records.... or lack of
his school records ....or lack of
his passport records...or lack of
his voting records ..... or lack of
it appears that obama being black(?) was above the law... only white boys have to actually follow the constitution!!!!!
bump
CNN lies, big time !
