14th Amendment: Section 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.

I guess you missed the bolded part?

Oh, and putting religious issues aside, all laws are manmade.

Not the laws of physics and biology. Speaking of which, it does indeed matter who is the father and what characteristics he possesses. If your theory were correct, there would not be an exception for Slaves, Indians and Diplomats.

I will be convinced when the Supreme Court agrees with you and codifies your opinion. Until then we effectively have only persons who are citizens at birth and those persons who are aliens at birth and at some point after naturalize.

I feel so sorry for you that you must have someone else tell you what your opinion is. Most of us here can think for ourselves and don't need a brain transfusion to know what we think. We can do our own research and come to our own conclusions.

I know that the Supreme court is WRONG on Roe v Wade, and they are also WRONG on Kelo v New London. They are also WRONG on Wong Kim Ark. It must be a comfort to you to not have to worry that the court ever gets anything wrong, but those of us who have a better understanding of the real world can afford no such fantasy.

Again, sorry for your condition.

Jurisdiction clause? Really? So Barack was not subject to the jurisdiction of the United States at the time of his birth? What planet are you from?

That's rich. Well, I guess the "real world" consists of 3 crackpot lawyers and 7 guys with a webring.
