Since Ankeny merely reemphasizes that Wong Kim Ark governs NBC, the judge actually put Wong Kim Ark over Minor v. Happesett

“based upon the language of Article II, Section 1, Clause 4 and the guidance provided by Wong Kim Ark, we conclude that persons born within the borders of the United States are “natural born Citizens” for Article II, Section 1 purposes, regardless of the citizenship of their parents.”

But lets cut to the chase. Chief Justice swore in Obama not once but twice. If this case ever makes it to the Supreme Court, do you honestly think he is going to say “you know, when I swore him in, I was ignorant of the law and of the Constitution and made a huge legal error.”? That is what must happen for all this to end up the way you wish. Do you really think Roberts would have sworn in a man he knew was not eligible?

NO. Roberts would not have sworn in a man he knew was not eligible. The Problem is, He did swear in a man who was not eligible, but Roberts didn't know this aspect of the law well enough to realize it.

It takes a great deal of research to look past the constant assertion that being born here makes someone a natural born citizen. Unless people have actually bothered to learn of the origins of Article II, and how the term mentioned therein was understood in that day an era, then they will simply not understand.

Falling down a hill is easy. Climbing up one is not.

Yes. No doubt in my mind.

It could have be Attila the Hun and Roberts would have sworn him in.
