For the fiftieth time, no it did not, and you have already had ample evidence presented to you that the court in fact ruled the opposite: that citizen parents are not necessary when the child is born in the USA under US jurisdiction.

For the fifty-first time, it did. What part of "all children born in a country of parents who were its citizens became themselves, upon their birth, citizens also. These were natives, or natural-born citizens ..." do you NOT understand??

And what part of "out of context" do you not understand? Why don't you to quote the sentence that comes right after those elipses of yours?

It’s not a question of him or the others not understanding. They don’t care that he’s ineligible.

I’m still wondering why you quote a poor translation made 10 years AFTER the Constitution was written as a source for the Constitution. The word incorrectly translated NBC in 1797 is ‘indigenous’. So if the Founders were following Vattel, why didn’t they require a “native, or indigenous citizen”?
