Quote from stu:
Now you want the Supreme Court to just give their opinion, not a ruling to change law!?
So put it this way then.
You're asking that the Court tests the understanding of the law as it stands, so the application of it will change, by specifically defining the wording used in the Constitution to expressly describe whether anyone born on US soil by a US american mother is a Natural Born Citizen or not.
And you think that a worthy application of justice in the interest of all americans
It's easy to see where this would go. Birthers hope there is a decision that a child born on US soil with both parents US citizens is the meaning of Natural Born.
Then down the line another President, who birthers don't like either, want the Court to test whether the parents being citizens is enough to make their child Natural Born, and ask the Court to "test" whether the grandparents too must have been born themselves by two other Natural Born parents as defined, who themselves, in an unbroken line all the way back to the drawing of the Constitution, were Natural Born.
It's not a test of law its a mockery of it.
There is little if anything in three hundred years of law that differentiates between a citizen and natural born which leads to understand other than anyone born within the power, protection and jurisdiction of a territory, is the natural born subject and citizen of it.
ok, lets pretend you are not being a troll? Show us, how and from where, you derived the definition of natural born citizen.
... show me the law as it stands. What court ruled on it... where is it embodied. What is the status quo on natural born citizen. The law needs to be established, so that what you fear, can not come to pass. That's why we want to see a law. its called the rule of law, it part of what made america great.

2. I keep telling you, I want to see the constitution honored, but, now, I also want obama on the ballot. Its called due process. its called the rule of law. its what made our country great.
3. by the way, all this is academic now. A court is about to teach you this lesson. no matter how loony you obama loons are, pretending you know the definition of NBC, telling us you know where Obama is born and we should believe in internet photocopies - the courts are now taking up this matter.
And that is all that I asked. loons lose. America wins.
