“Of that I have no doubt. I also have no doubt that you have spent quite a lot of time at these websites. I think you have been using them as a cite resource for a very long time.”


That’s true except for cite part. I always go to the original source for citations and links. In order to keep up with the latest Article II, Section 1 events I try to read both birther (Birther Report/Free Republic’s natural born citizen threads) and the anti-birther blogs (obama conspiracy theories/fogbow) at least several times a week plus any court rulings that are issued when they are posted online.

Ex post facto court rulings won't change the correct meaning or intent of a document written in 1787. They won't even give you a good insight into it.

To get a good insight, you need to look at rulings close to that period, especially if made by people who participated in the convention/ratification discussions.
