“You know full well who has been recognized for over 150 years as the first NBC President, and it wasn’t George Washington.”
I’ve cited court cases from the time. You have cited...nothing. Nothing at all.
I’ve pointed out the difference between citizen and NBC. You have ignored that difference. You, sir, are an idiot.
I’m a long way from an idiot.
You, however, are an utterly self-absorbed individual who’d throw the entire country under the bus rather than admit you were wrong and that you lied to your children.
The first natural born citizen President was Martin Van Buren, born 1782, an acknowledged fact of very long standing.
George Washington was a Founder of this nation, an original citizen and our first President under the Constitution. He was born on English soil as Virginia was under the jurisdiction of England at the time. He was not magically transmogrified retroactively into a natural born citizen of the United States, as the United States wouldn’t exist for going on a half-century later.
Step away from all this emoting and rationalizing, and just listen to yourself. You’re making no logical sense whatsoever, and now you’re descending into childish name-calling.
Be an adult, just admit your mistakes and move on.
Mr Rogers, for shame. Denigrate an argument as you see fit, but Christ makes it sin to call people idiots. We are all if us make in God’s image, and we are all owed that measure of respect. I know you are a serious Christian from our interactions in past theological threads. I urge you to reconsider the approach you are taking here to those who likely are your brothers and sisters in Christ.
