I would like to hear from an acknowledged constitutional scholar who is alive in the 21st century comment on the two citizen parent theory.
I want to hear from someone of the stature of Judge Robert Bork, Judge Kenneth Starr, former Solicitor General Theodore Olson, anyone on the Board of Directors of the Federalist Society, the Heritage Foundation, the American Enterprise Institute or perhaps a current or former conservative Republican state Attorney General or a former Chief Justice of a state Supreme Court.

Odds are they know less about the issue than you do. What I have discovered in my own research is that there is a wealth of information that isn't common knowledge, and unless you specifically go looking for it, you won't likely be aware of it.
