Nice quote.If you're suggesting that Congress has the power to define, and redefine, who is or is not a NBC, then I agree with you.Now, how about quoting that same passage as it is worded in the Naturalization Act of 1795?
If you're suggesting that the 1795 law is somehow more relevant than the 1790 law, then you're nuts.
Both the first such law (passed by the very first Congress, with the largest group of Framers to vote on an Immigration law), and the Immigration Law in effect when Cruz was born make it clear that Cruz IS a NBC.
I am simply asking you to quote the language of the 1795 Naturalization Act that applies to the line you quoted from the Act of 1790. Is this to big of a request?
