Forgive me for intruding on your point, Ma'am, but were you aware that all aliens were denied the right to petition or participate in the Federal Court system until after the 1940's? I'd argue that neither the Constitution nor "common law" offers any such right of writ, but rather the notion that "anyone can sue" is one bestowed upon us by the U.S. Code (see my post above), a product of Federal legislation created by cretins in Congress.
As always, it's my pleasure to be,
Most Respectfully,

No, I was not. (And please feel free to intrude at your discretion...I love discussing this type of thing :-)

LOL! 'Cretins' is too mild a word. If you notice your US Code cite though, you'll see that the phrase 'United States' is NEVER used, but every time it says 'State', it actually means 'the United States'. This is more of the 'words of art' legal crapola government uses to control the people.-(d) The word “States”, as used in this section, includes the Territories, the District of Columbia, and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico.
When certain things are included, everything else is, by default, excluded.

Whether the federal government likes it or not, their jurisdiction is limited and restricted by the terms of the Constitutional contract.
Unfortunately, the People have become so ignorant of the construction of the law, they don't even realize that there is more than one type of 'law' in operation in our country. The government can say or do the most outrageous things, and the People say "Uh....okay!"
It's enough to make one ill!

The reason illegals have *special* rights is because they ARE 'illegal'.
Using the intent of the Founders in establishing our Republic, you will discover there is NO SUCH THING as a ~United States citizen~. All the writings of the Founders that I've read say 'citizen of the United States', or State citizen.......NEVER United States citizen.
Even though the authority to create a new class of citizenship appears nowhere in the Constitution, the federal government has done just that. A 'United States citizen' is a creation of government. One of the oldest and most basic tenants of law, 'that which you create, you have the right to control', is what gives the federal government jurisdiction over US Citizens. The United States government was originally constructed to be a civil entity inside it’s Constitutional boundaries, and a statutory (or administrative) entity when dealing with the governments of the respective States.
Illegals have no *legal entity*, so they are still considered 'natural persons'. BY LAW. Natural persons are under the jurisdiction of natural, or common/civil law.
Here is nolo's definition of:
natural person
A living, breathing human being, as opposed to a legal entity such as a corporation. Different rules and protections apply to natural persons and corporations, such as the Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination, which applies only to natural persons.
That's why illegals get preferential treatment over Americans....they have no legal entity BECAUSE THEY ARE *illegal*.
It's also why the government is so hot under the collar to 'legalize' all the 'illegals'.
Since government has made 'citizenship' a burden instead of a benefit, I think it would be a good thing for all we lowly 'US citizens' to expatriate ourselves en masse.
