I'd really like to see you cite some case law...


That you do not know the Masin ruling from LAST MONTH is not my problem.

Read.

Quote:
“The Law of Nations” and to various early sources for support for their argument that one who is the child of a non-citizen cannot be natural born even if born in the United States. But the Ankeny court, relying upon the decision of the United States Supreme Court in U.S. v. Wong Kim Ark, 169 U.S.649, 18 S. Ct. 456, 42 L. Ed. 890 (1898), rejected that position

The Wong Kim Ark Court then stated;

We find no warrant for the opinion that this great principle of the common law has ever been changed in the United States. It has always obtained here with the same vigor, and subject only to the same exceptions [children of ambassadors, etc.], since as before the Revolution.

The petitioners legal position on this issue, however well intentioned, has no merit in law. Thus, accepting for the point of this issue that Mr.Obama was born in Hawaii, he is a “natural born Citizen” regardless of the status of his father.

The above are selected, verbatim, passages from the ruling.

Now, I fully expect all of you to simply dismiss this. This is a ruling, it's case law, it's from a few weeks ago.

A few weeks ago.

That's fine, but that means you disregard legal rulings from case law that you do not like.

That means that you are biased, prejudiced and that your arguments are illogical and irrational.

Your beliefs and interpretation of the law are just wrong with regards to Obama's father's status. You want one thing, the current ruling rules another.
