Doesn’t a bill passed by Congress have to be signed into law by a President? If a President doesn’t sign a bill, doesn’t it take a two-thirds vote of both Houses to override a veto? Can’t any bill signed into law be challenged as unconstitutional at the Supreme Court? Congress can’t impose rules absent the participation of the other two branches of government. In the case of Bellei, Congress rectified a statutory mistake by repealing the offending section of the statute.

Large font and bold type can’t make up for facts.

Exactly. And they could just as easily have required people to stand on one leg every third Tuesday if they wanted to keep their citizenship. The point, about which you are being deliberately obtuse is that if citizenship is granted by the whim of congress, it isn't natural.

Prior to 1922, people born in foreign countries to one citizen parent were NOT CITIZENS AT ALL.

Now you guys are coming along and trying to argue that they are the same as "natural" citizens. I would say you are lying to yourselves, but I don't even think YOU believe this bullSh*t.
