Quote from a legal mind, opposing to Mr. WKA!!!
U.S. v. Wong Kim Ark, 169 U.S. 649 (1898): It quoted the same definition of “natural born Citizen” as did Minor v. Happersett. Hence, Wong did not change the definition of an Article II “natural born Citizen.” It declared under the Fourteenth Amendment a child born on United States soil to alien parents who were domiciled and legally residing in the United States and therefore subject to the jurisdiction of the United States a “citizen of the United States,” It did not find him an Article II “natural born Citizen.” The Wong Kim Ark holding which relates to a Fourteenth Amendment born “citizen of the United States” cannot be relied upon to define an Article II “natural born Citizen.” Defining what an Article II “natural born Citizen” is depends upon what the Framers intended that clause to mean in 1787. The Framers defined national citizenship during the Founding in the historical context of the American Revolution, a context which did not exist in 1898. In that context, the Founders had to provide for who were the original citizens and who were their descendents. To define these terms, the Framers relied upon the same law that justified the Revolution itself. That law was natural law and the law of nations and not the English common law. From that law, they came to call the original citizens “citizens of the United States” and their descendents, the “natural born Citizens.” The Framers then gave Congress the power to naturalize all other persons who may in the future also qualify to be “citizens of the United States.” Under natural law and the law of nations as commented upon by Vattel, whom the Framers relied upon to explain that law, this meant that only the children of citizens (either “natural born Citizens” or naturalized) could ever be “natural born Citizens.” All other citizens would only be “citizens of the United States.” Wong Kim Ark dealt with defining what a Fourteenth Amendment “citizen of the United States” was in 1898. Justice Gray’s general statements in Wong Kim Ark as to what a “natural born subject” (which under English common law also included naturalized subjects) was in the colonies under English common law before the Revolution made by him for the purpose of defining a “citizen of the United States” in 1898 do not answer the question of what the Founder’s definition of an Article II “natural born Citizen” was in 1787. In fact, given the Revolution and the need to constitute a new society, to the Framers the English common law was neither relevant nor useful in providing that definition. Justice Gray’s decision can at best be used to define what an original citizen was before the adoption of the Constitution which definition he used to justify his declaring Wong a Fourteenth Amendment born “citizen of the United States.” But it cannot be used to define what a “natural born Citizen” is following its adoption. Additionally, the Wong court itself recognized the two distinct types of citizens, a “natural born Citizen” and a “citizen of the United States.” Chief Justice Fuller in his dissent said that he would not have found Wong to be a “citizen of the United States” because his parents were not citizens. He also confirmed Vattel’s definition of a “natural born Citizen.”
“...it was never doubted that all children born in a country of parents who were its citizens became themselves, upon their birth, citizens also. These were natives, or natural-born citizens, as distinguished from aliens or foreigners.”
If “it was never doubted,” why are we here. Both Republicans and Democrats ran ineligible candidates. Both are partially controlled by special interests. Both parties and the media have been neutralized by Alinsky’s Fifth Rule: “Ridicule is man's most potent weapon.” The Democrats at least are honest about their intentions. Our Republican party leaders are undermining Joe Miller, Christine O’Donnel, and even supported Castle and Christ until they were completely dead, and still support Lisa Murkowski. In another time we would say “follow the money!” Now that we are a nation of men and not of laws, we must first fix the nation.
Most of us, all who have read the legal doctrine upon which our republic based upon ideas was based, the first such government, know that Obama is illegitimate. No one in power dares speak up because it will likely cost him or her his job, and with it his power. Their ignorance defense will not fall until the balance of power has shifted. It is a sad truth.
What we CAN do is everything to eliminate anyone, Republican or Democrat, who vacillates in any way around the Obama-Soros missions. Obama, who never told anyone he was a natural born citizen, has ridden in on the support of the public employee unions, along with what remains of our trade unions, largely dying as our manufacturing moves offshore. AFSCME is the largest single campaign contributor to this election. AFSCME employees and Acorn count absentee ballots in many, probably most, states. They count all the ballots in some states. They will steal this election if they can because their services and pensions are bankrupting the country, but many of them are not particularly skilled, and would be at a disadvantage in a capitalist society. They will benefit, for a while, from Communism.
If we attempt a litmus test for candidates such as asking “What is the definition of a natural born citizen?” most candidates will fail, as did Jim DeMint and John Kyl. They know the truth puts a target on their backs. That question must wait until we have a majority in the house, and that will not happen if the fraud already being executed succeeds.
Free Republic could help to make us free again if Freepers would find the experts in their precincts on voter fraud, and volunteer to watch polls. It was a surprise to learn that some observant and committed conservatives overturned two blatantly fraudulent elections in upper middle class Contra Costa County in California. The fraud was well organized and backed by the NEA. Like the famous unprosecuted Shabazz voter intimidation case in Philadelphia, they put menacing union thugs at the corners of the ballot validation room. Fraud will be everywhere. We cannot ask for identification in California, but poll watchers can oversee absentee counting, and can learn the bag of tricks Obama used to teach in his “Project Vote” days.
We need to get informed because, while Obama is not legitimate, it is scarier that he never said he was! He said his father was a Kenyan, he himself was born a British subject. He knew he would be protected by both Democrats and Republicans, and he has been. We need a house cleaning! Without combating the fraud, we will make gains - the Ruling Class will let enough seats change to be able to blame Republicans for obstructing the recovery which will never happen. Real unemployment is closer to 20% than the claimed 12, and growing, while the government is growing. But we are in the process of collapsing economically, which will insure a third killing for George Soros in the currency markets. He has homes in many countries. Besides not knowing in which country Barack was born, we don't know where his refuge will be, but I'm guessing Venezuela, since when the U.S. fails Saudi Arabia won't be long in following.
The Constitution holds no meaning for the Ruling Class, except for those who write books about it or use it to support civil cases. Even Obama's background means little, except to the authors who profit from yet another excursion through the constructed life, assiduously avoiding the simple fact of his illigitimacy due to his British birth. He is simply an undistinguished but certainly bright con man who parlayed his affirmative action credentials into becoming the front man for some powerful interests. We have Madison's “government of men, and not laws.” We may still be able to change it, while our local agencies pay lip service to the Constitution. It is clear, with the Feds joining foreign countries to sue states, that we have enemies both in our justice department and its overseers in the executive. Campaigning, supporting candidates, free speech, all mean nothing if our votes don't reflect our preferences, and today, our votes are being stolen.
Every AP story about how the polls show races tightening up are to assuage the public when their candidate, as happened in Washington state, Minnesota, and will happen all over the country, didn't quite make it. The Republicans are a bit less likely to support outright fraud, but they supported a malleable Democrat to run for California's Secretary of State position, the election watchdog, chosen no doubt because he tells his rags to riches story well, only omitting his adoration for Barack. Damon Dunn changed his Democrat registrations in two states, asking the Florida Sec. of State to expunge his record, only 6 months before entering the race in California as a Republican, and moving to Orange County, claiming to be a minster. Since the California watchdog, Deborah Bowan, is an SEIU Democrat, election laws meant nothing. Dunn had an easy ride because his opponent was Orly Taitz, already “targeted,frozen, personalized, and polarized” (Alinsky's 13th Rule) by by the Alinsky left and Ruling Class Republican right. Taitz ran to expose voter fraud and fix registration irregularities ignored by both the Republicans and encouraged by Democrats.
Perhaps Free Republic patriots could learn, and it is a very complex topic, about the techniques of voter fraud being used on them, and encourage more to become poll watchers. You are seeing only the fringes, the late absentee ballots being sent overseas is an old story, and you know this justice department would simply not allow military members to vote if it could. You have heard of counts being allowed which exceeded the number of registered voters in St. Louis. You probably didn't hear about the retirement community residents whose primary ballots were lost and others whose registrations were changed during the Orly Taitz-Damon Dunn primary. The invalidation of absentee ballots because instructions were intentionally misleading is another trick. The security of the counting is, to this reader, the most suspicious, since there is no way to validate counts. We do not live in a representative republic if our elections are controlled by would-be tyrants, and that is now the case.
