Is someone going to explain the Minor decision and how 18 Supreme Court justices agreed on the definition of natural-born citizen: all children born in the country to parents who were its citizens.

“how 18 Supreme Court justices agreed on the definition of natural-born citizen: all children born in the country to parents who were its citizens.”

When were there ever 18 justices? Or are you conflating two different decisions? Then why only name Minor?

Byu the way, they didn’t exhaustively define natural born citizenship. They may have said children born to two citizen parents are natural born citizens, but I’m sure they didn’t say native borns aren’t.
