“... and the guidance provided by Wong Kim Ark...”
Which section of the US Constitution is Wong Kim Ark in?
Naturally, the Founding Fathers put in some pretty long days crafting our various national documents, and ordered a lot of Chinese food delivered to the Continental Congress.
The U.S. Constitution is the bedrock foundation of all law. The Supreme Court’s decisions are also part of U.S. law. _Wong_ was a case tried before the U.S. Supreme Court; therefore, the Court’s interpretation — in the decision of _Wong_ — of constitutional provisions *is* the law of the land just as much as the Constitution is the law of the land.
The 14th Amendment.
