The Ankeny decision was total idiocy. You lose IQ points just reading it.

The other statement from Wikipedia is one which was made by John Bingham. (Father of the 14th amendment.)

It seems the preponderance of court rulings favor the latter interpretation. But, I can see the wisdom of avoiding dual allegiances specifically for POTUS.

Yeah, the courts are full of lawyer types who somehow think "Precedent" is more important than common sense or facts. That's how we get decisions like Roe v Wade, Kelo v New London, Lawrence v Texas, Obamacare, Wickard v Fillburn and other brain rotten verdicts.

The courts operate just like the Thunder Birds Air force flying team. When the leader flies into the ground, the rest of them fly into the ground with him.

Seriously, the courts are literally that stupid.

"Kelo v New London... Seriously, the courts are literally that stupid."

Sadly true. And they keep pumping them out. Can't wait for the 2nd Amendment rulings.
