I will say one more time, the congress has changed the laws several times since 1790. Just wait and let the SC decide and drop it until then. Nothing your or I could say will change the others minds so what is the purpose? We both know it will go to court. I just hope the SC accepts it and it does not have to go thru all the lower courts for months. Find out as soon as possible.

I'm aware of that. It doesn't answer my question.

Nah, you can drop it if you want, I'll keep pressing the issue.

Nothing your or I could say will change the others minds so what is the purpose?

Rhetorical question so no answer required, but I'll comment that that's rather presumptive so speak for yourself, not me.

We both know it will go to court.

I'm no prognosticator so I'll leave the guessing to you. However, no nomination no court case to bring.

I just hope the SC accepts it and it does not have to go thru all the lower courts for months.

All such hope is lost. It will have to proceed up the food chain to some extent.

" I just hope the SC accepts it"

You might want to be very careful what you wish for. I guarantee this Court would find that any system that allows for special consideration for certain citizens will not be allowed to stand. Which means any foreigner, post naturalization, would be eligible to be the CiC of our armed forces. What could possibly go wrong?
