[Political Junkie Too]

I have argued that there is no "national border," there are only 50 sovereign state borders.

Furthermore, I'm arguing that the Article I Section 8 power granted to Congress "To establish an uniform Rule of Naturalization" only applies to people, not the borders directly.

I further argued that the federal government may erect "needful buildings" to regulate the immigration of people at designated entry points, but cannot claim dominion over the states' borders. They must rely on the states to police their own borders.

Finally, I claim that Federalist #43 (on Article IV Section 4) backs up this assertion.

I agree with you. how do you view this ruling? Maybe there is something in the fine print or over looked we're missing?
