Luria simply said: “Under our Constitution, a naturalized citizen stands on an equal footing with the native citizen in all respects save that of eligibility to the Presidency.”

THAT’S FREAKIN’ IT. One freaking sentence.

Do you know what “NATIVE” means? It means that YOU ARE FROM SOME PLACE. It has nothing to do with whether your parents are “citizens,” or not. And nobody in early America, or for that matter, NOBODY IN ALL OF HISTORY, EXCEPT FOR SOME SWISS PHILOSOPHER THAT NOBODY IN AMERICA EVER LISTENED TO ON CITIZENSHIP, has EVER said differently.

Ah, but. There was a Swiss guy, who ALONE, out of ALL THE WORLD, over in Switzerland, in FRENCH, said “natives” really had to have citizen parents.

Never mind what the ENTIRE REST OF THE FREAKING WORLD had to say.

You’re an idiot.

It's not just the sentence, but the citations that follow that sentence and the conspicuous absence of any reference to U.S. v. Wong Kim Ark. The first citation is of course to Minor, which exclusively characterized NATIVE and Natural-born citizen with this same definition: all children born in the country to parents who were its citizens. And you still have NOTHING.
