"nothing more than a baseless denial"
__

Nothing more than a baseless denial? No one agrees with you, Joe, and that's an indisputable fact, even though you'd like to think of it as baseless.
__

" I just showed where Ankeny admitted the points I've brought up"
__

And yet Ankeny says:

'Based upon the language of Article II, Section 1, Clause 4 and the guidance provided by Wong Kim Ark, we conclude that persons born within the borders of the United States are “natural born Citizens” for Article II, Section 1 purposes, regardless of the citizenship of their parents.'

If you think that Ankeny supports your conclusion concerning Obama's eligibility, you have an odd notion of what the word "support" means.
__

"Until you can show where it's wrong, my points stand."
__

Your points stand where they've always stood -- in your own mind.

And until you can demonstrate that someone in authority has agreed that Obama is not eligible to be President, your points stand only in your own mind. Explaining over and over again how you're convinced of your own correctness doesn't make a dent in the fact that you can't cite a single decision whose conclusion concerning Obama's eligibility agrees with yours.

A single decision whose conclusion concerning Obama's eligibility agrees with yours. Do you understand that? Can you cite one?

I didn't say they "support" my conclusion; I said they ADMITTED the points that I've brought up. And by footnote, they admitted there was no actual legal precedent for the "guidance" they claimed to have divined from the Wong Kim Ark decision. It's part of the reason that decision never declared Obama to be a natural-born citizen. Any decision that does so on the basis of Ankeny does so because of unsupported dicta and NOT an actual legal precedent.

And until you can demonstrate that someone in authority has agreed that Obama is not eligible to be President, your points stand only in your own mind.

The Supreme Court AGREED UNANIMOUSLY that NBC = "all children born in the country to parents who were its citizens." No lower court decision trumps this. And there's been NO concensus even among the lower courts because they don't use consistent reasoning to dismiss the lawsuits. Ankeny admitted what I've talked about and I've given those citations. Just because they weaseled out of the decision on procedural grounds doesn't change the fact that they could NOT declare Obama to be eligible for office.
