Nope. The Wong Kim Ark decision, as I said, spends several pages discussing how the basic principle of citizenship in the USA if jus solid, not jus sanguinis.

If you disagree, I suggest you file your complaints with the Court.

Nope? You mean the U.S. government is wrong and you're right?

The comment I posted wasn't an opinion. It was a statement of fact in the form of a quote directly from the U.S. Department of State Foreign Affairs manual. Here it is again.

"U.S. laws governing the acqusition of citizenship at birth embody two legal principles: 1. Jus soli (the law of the soil) and 2. Jus sanguinis (the law of the bloodline.)"

U.S. Foreign Affairs Manual, Volume 7, 7 FAM 1111 Introduction (CT:CON-314; 08- 21-2009)
