The Fourteenth Amendment - Revisited

First - forget everything you ever knew about the Fourteenth
Amendment - then carefully read the below expose:

Take the Amendment’s opening clauses, “All persons born or
naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction
thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein
they reside...”

Now, consider the same clauses with the central, explanatory clause
removed, and it then reads: “All persons born or naturalized in the
United States are citizens of the United States and of the state
wherein they reside...”

Under the rules of English grammar and punctuation, the second
clause, “and under the jurisdiction thereof, “ is an explanatory
clause. Explanatory clauses do not add to nor in any way change or
alter the meaning of the writing in which they are included; their
purpose is to explain. As it is self evident that naturalized
persons volunteer into the jurisdiction of the United States as an
inherent aspect of their voluntary naturalization, the explanatory
clause obviously was not relevant thereto. Therefore the inclusion
of this explanatory clause is to clarify that persons born in the
United States, in deference to the Thirteenth Amendment, do not
become and are not, at the moment of their birth in the United
States, automatically citizens thereof because such newborn persons
are incapable of personally volunteering themselves into servitude.
I contend that the inclusion of “persons naturalized” was somewhat
obfuscatory.

To: phockthis; All
Don't forget to mention that 'and subject to the jurisdiction thereof (to the United States)' clause.

Clue: The Uhited States here means the federal United States, a corporation.

The 14th doesn't (can't) grant rights, only privliges and immunities.

Simply put, the 14th only applies to federal citizens, those who do not have rights.

Two classes of 'citizens', folks.

You can, as a free-born Citizen with rights, contract with the federal government for benefits and lose osme of your rights.

It's been the fed's goal to extinguish the population of Citizens by trickery and deceit, turning all citizens and Citizens into subjects of the federal gummint.

Sooprize! It's winning.
