The Supreme Court said the difference between NBS & NBC is terminology based on form of government. That is it. They then use the meaning of NBS to make WKA a NBC, and thus a citizen. THAT is what the first half of the WKA decision is about.

The other decision was one I read in passing after Ann Coulter mentioned it, but I didn’t bookmark it and I don’t have time today to search for it. It wouldn’t be binding regardless, since it was a footnote. It had to do with anchor babies, if that helps.

You’re still misrepresenting WKA. It did not use the meaning of NBS to make WKA an NBC. It used the meaning of NBS to justify calling WKA a citizen of the United States. Nothing in there says WKA is a natural born citizen. Read it. All of it. Learn it. Understand it ... correctly.

Comparing the Wong Kim Ark case to the matter of Obama's presidential eligibilty under the "natural born citizen" clause is like comaring apples to bananas. The Wong Kim Ark case was decided on the meaning of the 14th Amendment. Wong Kim Ark was a citizen of the US since he was born here. Simple as that. The Court made no determination as to whether Wong Kim Ark was a "natural born citizen" pursuant to Article II because it was irrelevant, since Wong wasn't interested in becoming POTUS.

In short, Wong Kim Ark is a 14th Amendment matter, while Obama's eligibility in an Article II matter.
