Does not your post #277 refer to the ***1952** Naturalization Act?
Now you want to talk about the very first act of Congress in 1790 which addressed citizenship requirements and was the only naturalization act of Congress that made mention of natural born citizen?
You’re playing games now?
Get Lost!
For those reading:
The 1790 Naturalization Act was written for Americans on the high seas or in transit and it referred the Natural Born Citizen requirement as observed for a child born to citizen parents (”Second Generation Citizens”) who were domiciled in the United States or its territories or possessions.
The question was what was the citizenship status of a child born to US citizen parents overseas on the sea?
The answer was the child is natural born if born to citizen parents who had residence in the United States or its territories or possessions. The word used today is domicile.
The issue was raised again under President Madison who confirmed that a relatively short time on a sea voyage or a mission abroad did not disqualify a child born abroad of citizens from consideration as natural born.
I’m talking about the use of the expression “natural born citizen”. It was used by the founding Congress 3 years after the ratification of the Constitution, and it was signed by George Washington, who presided over the Constitutional Convention that gave us our Constitution.
THEY used the expression “natural born citizen” to describe the child born overseas to US citizens.
It’s irrefutable. It shows their USE of the expression “natural born citizen” included bloodline citizens, those born overseas.
