All you’re showing is your ignorance.

1. Minor gives a specific definition. Ankeny divines “guidance” from a case that doesn’t use that guidance to declare Wong Kim Ark to be an NBC and Ankeny admits it their own footnote. The Ankeny idiots even contradict themselves when referencing the Minor definition of NBC when they say it contemplates children of citizens and aliens and then that it leaves the question open of children of aliens. If they contemplated that scenario, then the question wasn’t left “open.” It’s just sloppy reading on the part of the Ankeny justices.

2. It wasn’t about NOT using the term natural-born citizen in WKA. Gray used NBC as it was defined by Minor. The defendant didn’t fit that definition. Ankeny’s reasoning for saying it was immaterial was that they thought it only mattered for the people elected as president. The Art II Sec I requirement is not there for the benefit of the president, but for the people to protect them from a leader with an inherent conflict of interest. Even YOU should be smart enough to understand this. Do you think the requirement is there only for the benefit of the president???

And sorry to spoil another one of your ridiculous talking points, but this is not a matter of grammar, but the entire context of Minor and WKA, which you’ve been shown in multiple citations.

Here's some more of you insanity:

Sorry, but this is an ignorant strawman. Nobody said the 14th amendment does NOT apply to most of the nation. You're overreacting. I've only pointed out that Waite rejected the citizen clause for NBCs. The rest of the 14th amendment is still applicable. Citizenship is NOT the only thing the 14th amendment deals with.

Uh. . .dude. . .YOU'RE saying it. How in the world can part of the 14th Amendment NOT apply to probably 250 million plus Americans, and not hardly anybody know it??? Except for you and a few other people in your cult. See, this is where a reasonable person would start to question their thinking process. Not you!

You just make up some more imaginary law and NOW, we learn from you that the rest of the 14th Amendment applies to all of us, just not the citizenship part. But you don't have any cases that say it. Because if the 14th Amendment does not apply to most Americans, I kind of think somebody besides you would have noticed it.

Where are the cases that quote Minor Happersett to prove that the 14th Amendment does not apply to most Americans??? I haven't seen any. And just out of curiosity, where do the rest of us Americans get our citizenship??? I want an answer to this. What is next? Will you start telling people here they don't have to pay taxes??? Or to put commas in their name.
