I wish you and others would stop dragging Wong Kim Ark into the debate. The case is NOT on point. Moreover, the dicta in this case is often lamebrained, wrongheaded, untrue as to facts cited.
The HOLDING of the case does not support your views in any case. Wong Kim Ark was not trying to establish that he was a Natural Born Citizen, and the court did not reach that conclusion, either.
The cite is exactly on point, which is the point.
Of course, the birthers would think it was "lamebrained". They don't like it. Too bad.

The holding certainly does support my view. What do you think the court held? You do know what the result was for Wong don't you?
