The 14th created a new entity that never existed prior - the creation of the 'American citizen'.

I realize this is when the term was introduced but what practical effect did it have?

Does the Constitution define any additional duties for ‘citizens’ that didn’t already exist?

Did this in some way diminish the value of state citizenship?

I’m just not seeing the impact of saying we’re also citizens of the nation.

The 14th was just one of many diabolical chips against We the People. It was the setup, perhaps for much worse, but the setup was a requirement.
