“In Osborn v. Bank, 22 US (9 Wheat) 738, l.c. 827, Chief Justice Marshall said:”

You are quoting from a judge in 1967. I’m just not buying it.

Where are the letters, discussions, laws, treaties, newspaper articles, or any other written proof, among the millions we have, demonstrating that the founders made a mistake or some other type of blunder in the 1790 law? Just simply asserting so in order to make it fit does not work.

I have read a lot of documents from the era of the founders, and none of them support this theory. I am open to change my mind, but I need better proof. I can read the 1790 act. I can read the one in 1795. I can read letters the founders wrote to each other. Yet I find nothing that supports these ideas.

I am having trouble believing you are real. You must remember your American History class where the teacher told you about the most famous Supreme Court Justice of all time?

Chief Justice John Marshall
Born: September 24, 1755, Germantown, Virginia
Died: July 6, 1835, Philadelphia

He became the pattern for all Justices since. In addition to that, the change to the Naturalization Act was made by James Madison, author of the US Constitution, to correct the wording for the purpose of assuring that it would not be misconstrued in exactly the way you are misconstruing it.

Now, you have seen what the founders wrote at the time in the Congressional Record.
Please stop your foolish assertions and admit the truth.
