You're not helping yourself. The part you cited says;Note the *vast* difference between what the Court said, just as I quoted, and what you say the court said.women, if born of citizen parents within the jurisdiction of the United States, have always been considered citizens of the United States, as much so before the adoption of the fourteenth amendment of the constitution as sinceThis includes a criteria of parents being citizens and it is as much a part of citizenship SINCE the 14th amendment as it was since
There’s no vast difference. Fuller was quoting from the syllabus in Minor. Fuller is also the guy who dissented in Wong Kim Ark and cited Vattel in defining natural-born citizen. That same definition nearly matches the Minor definition verbatim. It’s the same definition that Gray cited verbatim and affirmed was due to citizen parents in the majority opinion in Wong Kim Ark. You should be seeing a pattern now. Natural-born = born in the country to citizen parents. There’s no other reason to say anything about the parents being citizens.
