I don't know what "commentary" you're talking about,

Are you REALLY expecting everyone here to believe that Plyler v. Doe has no commentary? An actual Supreme Court decision that has no opinions? HAHAHAHAHA! Let me refresh your memory from the text of MY post.

"This is the actual text of their commentary on the actual meaning of "and subject to the jurisdiction thereof" which the libs all wanna scream about but the SC commentary is what they never talk about. "

Which is absolutely right on the money because of your classic response "I don't know what "commentary" you're talking about,"

Try the commentary contained in the five opinions HERE which, by the way is YOUR link.

Yes, that commentary. The commentary the OBL and AB supporters " never talk about. " Remember me stating that? As in stating that in the third paragraph of my post? Post 106 in this thread?

The part of the Burger commentary in which he agrees in his stated opinion with the decision of the court? The agreement that is the only reference anywhere in any of the opinions to reference "children born in this country to illegal alien parents? The reference that describes said children as "Mexican Citizens?"

That reference in that opinion? Is that what you seem to have a problem locating?

Does the SCOTUS case you cited address the question? No.

You are absolutely correct. Nowhere in the case, Syllabus, Opinion, a Concurrence or Dissent is there any statement that confers United States Citizenship to children born in the U.S. of illegal alien parents.

when Mexico’s new president Calderon states that “wherever there is a Mexican, that is Mexico” he may — in the sense that they are Mexican subjects — be legally correct!

Mexican President Calderon should have, quite bluntly, kept his big mouth shut. If there ever actually was a question of allegiance or jurisdiction it is at least half answered now. Mexico is claiming jurisdiction over all of the illegals. If they allow the AB's to vote, it's a total wrap. If not, it is up to American law. And so far there appears to be only one statement from any of the SC Justices that reference children born in the U.S. of illegal alien parents. And it described them as "Mexican citizens."

“Mexico is claiming jurisdiction over all of the illegals. If they allow the AB’s to vote, it’s a total wrap.”

Why does the above remind me of the famous story of the “Trojan horse” and the defeat of the great city of Troy?

The “soldiers”(AB’s)may be out of the “horse”(the vagina’s of thier illegal mothers in this case)and our defeat may just be a matter of time.

,,, And the beauty of their strategy is that they our poised to when THIS war — without even firing a shot!

Thank you for your post.

No, I'm really not.

An actual Supreme Court decision that has no opinions? HAHAHAHAHA! Let me refresh your memory from the text of MY post.

While you're taking this little stroll down memory lane, and while we wait for your gales of deranged laughterto subside, why don't you drop a hint as to whose concurrence or dissent contains your favorite obiter dicta? I'm not inclined to put in a lot of effort to look up your references for you.

The majority opinion stands. It's binding precedent. And it doesn't go your way.

The part of the Burger commentary

Oops! You actually let a little useful information slip out. So your argument is based on the dissenting opinion by CJ Warren Burger. Point the first: A dissent has no legal force. So that gave me a bit of a head start, which let me find the following:

Children born in this country to illegal alien parents, including some of appellees' siblings, are not excluded from the Texas schools. Nor does Texas discriminate against appellees because of their Mexican origin or citizenship. Texas provides a free public education to countless thousands of Mexican immigrants who are lawfully in this country.

The America-born siblings of the illegal immigrant appellees are not among the appellees. They're their siblings. The case simply does not address the issue to which you're trying to apply it.
