I can appreciate what Leo is trying to do, but I don’t see this as the most effective way of going after the issue. It needs to be simplified to where the average voter can draw no other conclusion than Obama is not a natural-born citizen. No lower court is going to overturn a Supreme Court decision, so instead of attacking Wong Kim Ark, it’s better to show what’s right about it and how it still proves without a doubt that Obama is not a natural-born citizen. Ankeny is the new decision du jour for courts to fall back on, so we need to show how it’s wrong, but Ark is right in using and affirming Minor’s exclusive and uncontested NBC definition: all children born in the country to citizen parents.
Heya edge....
That isn’t what Leo is doing here, he isn’t informing the average lay person per say. He is offering research for use by the lawyers who are litigating Obama’s ballot eligibility cases.
The Ankney case incorrectly discarded the concept that it takes two parents as well as being born in the United States in order to be a Natural Born Citizen. The Ankney case states that anyone born here, regardless of parentage, can run for POTUS.
Malihi in Georgia used the Ankney case to justify ruling for the Defendant Obama, even though no evidence of Obama’s eligibility was presented BY Obama.
Ankney relied upon WKA and its holding to come to IT’S decision, and because the WKA decision itself if based upon false and incorrect information, totally destroys the foundation of not only WKA, but ALSO of Ankney.
What we have here is the historical legal keys NECESSARY in in reaching a CORRECT decision for the future SCOTUS appeal in the Georgia Case.
If Leo’s research is made part of the SCOTUS appeal, as part of the case for Obama’s INeligibility for POTUS, and SCOTUS makes to historically correct legal decision as it MUST upon accepting the historically accurate EVIDENCE Leo presents, then we the people will FINALLY get a correct definition of Natural Born Citizen, in a modern day case. We have it already in Minor. This will be the 6 feet of dirt over the grave of the after-birthers arguments that anyone born in the USA is a natural Born Citizen.
