Thank you higgmeister. I read all of that from your earlier post. I’m not finding in there any help that answers what is meant by “shall be considered as citizens” versus “are (actually) citizens”. No worries, I definitely appreciate what you’ve provided. I had never seen this before. I’ll continue to work with pieces of this weird puzzle which, by the language and definitions known by the founders, should not be nearly as complex as it has turned out to be. Many see the 1790 act and stop there stating NBC is defined while dismissing that it was repealed and replaced. I believe the reason it was replaced is because statute can not make one a NBC, only Natural Law can.

I have seen that very thing stated in one of the other old texts but I do not know where to find it right now. I wish I could go directly to the Library of Congress to read the actual notes of the early Congresses for myself.

I found it. it goes into great depth and detail with all the footnotes in the world.

You have to download it from SSRN Social Science Research Network.
