"Additionally, it should be reiterated that Wong Kim Ark was not ruled as a natural born citizen..."

He was ruled a citizen by birth. That is a natural born citizen. The ruling didn't distinguish between the terms because no such distinction exists.

"He [Wong Kim Ark] was ruled a citizen by birth. That is a natural born citizen. The ruling didn't distinguish between the terms because no such distinction exists." Um, Wong wasn't running for president and your effort to conflate citien with natural born citizen is specious at best. You've tried to argue that there are only and have been only two typesd of citizenship. This is false since we know--for example--that at one time Black people were considered at least a third type of citizen. Additionally, you purposely deminish the Constitutional eligibility issue by trying to deminish the meaning of natural born as the framers used and understood the term. That there is a major confusion on this is exactly why the SCOTUS needs to address the issues. That is your obamanoid cue to demand someone cite the exact definition of natural born citizen in the Constitution. Which is the usual tactic of those seeking to obfuscate the fact that ambiquity really does exist regarding the eligibility of this particular affirmative action fraud you appear determined to try and cover for.

I hope you realize why being argumentative is a waste of time, and quite frankly, incredibly annoying. He was not ruled as a natural born citizen.
