In addition, no Act or law that has passed has amended the Article ll eligibility requirement. Even Barney Frank never suggested such a thing in each of the attempts he made/backed trying to amend the nbc clause out of our Constitution.

In addition, no Act or law that has passed has amended the Article ll eligibility requirement.

The 1790 provision that the children of Citizens born overseas shall be considered Natual Born Citizens was not an attempt to amend the constitution, but a restatement of the founders intended definition of the term Natural Born Citizen.

To say that Washington and the other drafters of the constitution attempted to amend the constitution by inserting unconstitutional language into a law that was passed before the ink on the parchment had even dried is an insult to the Father of our Country and to the founders who included that restatement of law in that bill.

You did finish law school, didn't you?

You do understand the statutory principles of restatements of law, don't you?
