What is a natural-born citizen? The supreme court has told you what it is.
In Carmell v. Texas, 529 U.S. 513, 521 (2000) the Supreme Court noted that the meaning of an undefined term in the Constitution “necessarily requires some explanation,” and that “the necessary explanation is derived from English common law well known to the Framers.” Quoting Calder v. Bull, 3 Dall. 386, 390 (1798).
Also see Smith v. Alabama, 124 U.S. 465, 478 (1888), (The interpretation of the Constitution of the United States is necessarily influenced by the fact that its provisions are framed in the language of the English common law, and are to be read in the light of its history.)
The supreme court looks to William Blackstone’s COMMENTARIES ON THE LAWS OF ENGLAND, Volume I, “Of the Rights of Persons” the premiere treatise on British law at the time of the drafting of the Constitution. Blackstone explained that “[t]he first and most obvious division of the people is into aliens and natural-born subjects,” and that the “natural” allegiance due of “natural-born” subjects “is such as is due from all men born within the king’s dominions immediately upon their birth.”
A number of Supreme Court cases have used the term “native born” citizen to indicate all of those children physically born in the country, without reference to parentage or lineage, and employed such term in reference to those citizens eligible to be President under the “natural born” citizenship clause, as opposed to “naturalized” citizens, who are not. See Luria v. United States, 231 U.S. 9, 22 (1913); United States v. Schwimmer, 279 U.S. 644, 649 (1929); United States v. MacIntosh, 283 U.S. 605 (1931); and Schneider v. Rusk, 377 U.S. 163, 165 (1963).
cocked&locked, the malefactor ambulance chaser he is, can only prove his fallacious sophistry by filing his lawsuit against Kamala Harris on January 21, 2021 challenging her standing to service as vice-president of the good old U.S.A. And when that lawsuit doesn’t materialize, or if it does, cocked&locked will be branded as the hustling con artist he truly is.
