I have read a lot of Donofrio’s stuff lately and I am not impressed a bit. He is misrepresenting the law in a big way. There is a reason why 99.9999% of lawyers do not agree with him. It isn’t because he is sooo brilliant that he has figured out something no one else has. It’s because he can’t even get past a few sentences in Minor and understand:
For the purposes of this case it is not necessary to solve these DOUBTS.
Anyway, the zombie movie I was watching is over, so I am going to bed. Good night.
Virginia wasn't running for President. They were simply RESOLVING her BASIC CITIZENSHIP.
They found she was a NBC, per their definition written in the decision.
I guess we could call this a living and breathing sentence in a court decision. I fail to see NBC in this sentence as others do. For some reason, I only see citizen, in a case resolving citizen rights:
“Some authorities go further and include as citizens children born within the jurisdiction without reference to the citizenship of their parents.”
