Those who adhered to their communities as their primary allegiance, were natural born citizens of their communities, their States, and the United States that formed out of their communities.

Those who adhered to the King and his nation were natural born subjects of England.

Utter sh*t. You can't be a "natural born citizen" of a Political entity which does not exist yet. You also can't CHOSE to be a "natural born subject/citizen" of one or the other. You are either BORN with allegiance to the King, or you are BORN with allegiance to the United States.

George Washington was BORN with Allegiance to the King. Again, you've spent too much time listening to that sh*thead "Dr. Conspiracy", and his seven mental dwarves.

I am simply giving you an accurate understanding of what the situation was. If you don't like it, that's your problem.

You seem to imagine that there were no political entities on the North American continent. Such a view is false. Those political entities were regarded as being subject to the English king, but they existed.

And those who were born here in the Colonies, had an allegiance to those Colonies and to their fellow-citizens of those Colonies. They also had an allegiance to the king.

Before the Revolution, there was no conflict between those two allegiances. After the Revolution, those allegiances were in direct conflict, and each person had to choose one or the other.

Again, I can't help the fact that you have no understanding of the history of law, but imagine that you do.
