“Minor is saying the definition of ‘natural born citizen’ is extraconstitutional ... OUTSIDE of the Constitution, and they proceed to cite Vattel’s definition nearly word for word.”

Ummm...what they actual SAID is, “The Constitution does not, in words, say who shall be natural-born citizens. Resort must be had elsewhere to ascertain that.

I'm going to stop you right here, because you just proved me right. Everything else you wrote is irrelevant.

If you stop there, you ignore what they actually wrote.

And while that may make you feel good, the judges in these cases HAVE read the entire opinion...which is why they don’t roll over and wag their tails when a birther waves his magic Vattel wand!

Feel free to continue in blissful ignorance.
