Not so!
Dissenting opinion was in error!
Anyone can be stripped of their citizenship; remember Nolan? The man without a country?
The dissenters were nut cases.

> Anyone can be stripped of their citizenship
Persons who acquire citizenship via federal statute can lose their citizenship if they fail to fulfill statutory requirements (Rogers v. Bellei, 401 U.S. 815).
A citizen under the 14th Amendment can not have their citizenship revoked (Afroyim v. Rusk, 387 U.S. 253).
You don't even know what you are talking about. First of all, the opinion had nothing to do with stripping of citizenship. It was the holding. Nolan was a fictional character.Even with Nolan, it was an action by Nolan himself that instigated the stripping of his citizenship. If you read Belli like you claim, you see they make a distinction between someone that does something of his own free will as opposed to someone that has not done anything.

That says only naturalized citizens can lose citizenship, by denaturalization.
Speaking of people without a country ...

What is the Nolan case? I've been looking for it, seeing as how your remarks sometimes lead to interesting self-education about the subject, and about your honesty.
You need to maintain a position that the whole court is nut cases. All of them view Bellei as naturalized.
There is no Nolan case. He is a fictional character in a short story :-)

No, Nolan was not a fictional character.
There were fictional novels that took off of the theme, and a movie too, but Nolan was real, and an excellent example of the kinds of judges a popping jay like Trump would be likely to appoint.

A person born a citizen cannot get naturalized.
One must be an alien to get naturalized.
You’ve woven an immense web of stupidity.
At least we agree on those two points. Except your definition of "get naturalized" isn't the definition used in the law.
However, the uncertainty involved works against the Cruz interest to a significant degree--I doubt that he is going to get the nomination unless the issue gets resolved.
Frankly, given Senator Cruz's high level of sophistication on Constitutional Law issues, I am disappointed that he has not advanced a plan to get it resolved earlier.
Now you are just insane. Show me where Nolan was real. Have you ever even read the story ? Do you even know what it was about ? It was a commentary on the Civil War and the need for the preservation on the Union.
There were fictional novels that took off the theme
Do you understand what fictional means and taking off a theme? It means something that is made up, never happened and a theme is an idea. Why don't you come up with some quotes from Harry Potter while you are at it. They would be just as relevant.
Remember when BO brazenly admitted British citizenship (via his father) at birth? The quote smacks of that.
