The meaning of flags with gold fringe or the meaning of idiots opining on the interweb about Constitutional issues that they know nothing about?
For almost 100 years now, the Constitution has said whatever five out of nine Supreme Court Justices want it to say. I sure as hell don't like being ruled over by an oligarchy of unelected judges with lifetime appointments, but it is what it is.
It could be worse though. We could be governed by idiots opining on the interweb.
Exactly. So what is your beef with me? Birthright citizenship is just excepted practice, the Constitution does not grant that right, judges and bureaucrats have instituted it and legalists stand by waiting for the Supremes to tell them what it really means. English isn't confusing unless lawyers and judges make it so. You know like Scalia decided that "shall make no law" really means that reasonable laws were ok. Maybe even that Fiat money is really gold.
