At this point, many people deploy “magic thinking” and relapse into believing that a person can be “natural” (which is better thought of as “under the constitution”) and naturalized (which is better thought of as “NOT under the constitution, but under Act of Congress”) at the same time. They want to believe, so badly, that a person born abroad of a citizen parent is an NBC, that they become, on this point, literally kooks.


yup

I want to believe that my lottery ticket is a winner, too. It might be.

Really, this argument is so emotional, due to attachment to a dream, a wish. I mean, if I lose my lottery ticket, I've probably lost a buck or two, ten bucks if three numbers matched.

The people will toss the constitution, just to preserve a dream that their lottery ticket is the winner.
