“Minor was an 1874 decision, long made moot. Under Minor, women were not allowed to vote.”
Oh lord!
Minor was a case testing women’s suffrage....True. In it the court examined the things required to vote. Citizenship was the prime requirement. Was Liz a citizen? Holy heck yes, in fact she was the Gold Standard, a NBC, and the only one mentioned in the Constitution besides Naturalized citizens.
Liz was born in the US to 2 citizen parents. She was an NBC. The court looked no farther into what other circumstances would result in citizenship.
That Minor is moot is in regards to it’s finding that the state could limit WHICH citizens could vote, does not alter that the Court recognized what the Founders meant by the term NBC. That stands and has been consistent in it’s application in numerous citizenship cases. see Elg.
No none of these cases involved a candidate’s eligibility,
(non NBC elected candidates are few and far between...actually only 2 since 1792),but these cases did revolve around people born in the US to citizen parents. The courts consistently call these people NBCs. NO other circumstance results in the NBC quality of citizenship. NONE.
Since you are simply repeating this long outdated legal lunacy, and have proved you cannot learn, I’m sorry but trying to teach you practical law is like teaching a pig to dance.
The instructor doesn’t know here to start...
The pig never gets better...
and it just frustrates the pig.
