It might help you to do a study on the different forms of jurisdiction. One of the prominent SCOTUS cases on citizenship discusses the differences, it just escapes my mind at this time which one it is.

Perhaps @RASUL V. BUSH (03-334) 542 U.S. 466 (2004)

I like playing this game with you.

Nah, not it but I will check it out as I have never read that one before. The case I am referring to is a pre 14th Amendment case or close thereto, but definately prior to WKA. Call me prejudice but I like reading & studying the works of old dead guys the liberals tend to loathe, lol.

Scalia dissent -
By spurious reliance on Braden the Court evades explaining why stare decisis can be disregarded, and why Eisentrager was wrong. Normally, we consider the interests of those who have relied on our decisions. Today, the Court springs a trap on the Executive, subjecting Guantanamo Bay to the oversight of the federal courts even though it has never before been thought to be within their jurisdiction–and thus making it a foolish place to have housed alien wartime detainees.

Was the spurious reliance on Ankeny by Malia another instance where stare decisis was disregarded?
