His mother had to have residency for a certain number of years, of which, it appears she didn't.

Chief Justice Roberts and Justices Scalia, Thomas and Alito looked at that argument a few weeks ago and did not see any merit.

But then of course, I do not know you and it could be that you have a better understanding of the Constitution than the Four Strict Constructionists on the SCOTUS.

“Chief Justice Roberts and Justices Scalia, Thomas and Alito looked at that argument a few weeks ago and did not see any merit.”

I didn’t see that ruling published. Or were you present at the Supreme Court’s private conference? LOL

That is a false statement. That issue was not a part of the action that they perused.

Where did they day it lacked merit? THere are many reasons to take the action that they did, and non-at this stage are based on the substantive merits.

You don’t know what they looked in to specifically, because they did not comment.
