But laws on citizenship changed. Since wives now do not automatically assume husband’s citizenship, the original meaning still stands. Jus solis and jus sanguinus. ParentS who are citizens. Any changes to the Constitution need to be done the hard old way.
“Any changes to the Constitution need to be done the hard old way.”
“But laws on citizenship changed.”
Do you see the problem?
The Constitution was written in a way that would count Eric as an NBC.
How can the intent of the Constitution be changed by mere citizenship laws?
Originalism would dictate that Eric is an NBC until the Constitution was changed along with the citizenship laws.
