You quoted an article some right wing faux con law scholar wrote. You have yet to respond to the fact that the rest of the opinion makes clear your view is completely wrong. No court has agreed with you. The Supreme Court twice confirmed that birth within the territorial jurisdiction of the U.S. Confers citizenship. Other courts have agreed. The Ninth Circuit wrote, in Rabang v. INS:Right. The entire family is living off the $151.44 per month that the is paid for the child.

You're so fucking Clueless. That's more money than they ever made in Mexico.
Yes, and he is a liar. He will say anything whether he knows it to be relevant or not, true or not or bullshit or not.
He just wants to throw out rhetoric just to see if it sticks.
Why waste your time on his dumbass?
Identify one lie, asshole. I gave you the words of Wong Kim Ark that prove you to be clueless about what it holds; and you have yet to have the balls to try to respond. You offer bullshit right wing blather and I offer the words of the Supreme Court; words you have yet to address. You and that ignorant POS Claudette deserve one another.
Bowie boy is a quick to call anyone he disagrees with a liar- but when called on it- when asked to quote a lie- has consistently run away from the challenge.
And of course quick to call anyone he disagrees with names.
He is an idiot.
I have quote Wong Kim Ark so many times the mods tagged me for spamming it. but you dumbass liars wouldn't read it apparently and you still have the Liars Nerve to say I never answered you?

"The dissent relies on dicta in two Supreme Court cases to conclude that birth in a United States territory constitutes birth “in the United States” under the FourteenthAmendment. In United States v. Wong Kim Ark, 169 U.S. 649, 18 S.Ct. 456, 42 L.Ed. 890 (1898), the Supreme Court held that a person born in San Francisco, California, of Chinese parents, could not be excluded from the United States under the Chinese Exclusion Acts after a temporary visit to China. The Supreme Court held that the Citizenship Clause confers citizenship “by birth within the territory.” Id. at 693, 18 S.Ct. at 473. In Inglis v. Sailors' Snug Harbour, 28 U.S. 99, 155, 3 Pet. 99, 155, 7 L.Ed. 617 (1830), Mr. Justice Story in his concurring and dissenting opinion to the majority opinion explained that citizenship by birth arises by “birth locally within the dominions of the sovereign; and ... birth within the protection and obedience ... of the sovereign.
The DC Circuit agreed also in Perkins v Elb:
"The law of England, as of the time of the Declaration of Independence, was that a person born in that kingdom owed to the sovereign allegiance which could not be renounced. Many early American decisions applied that as the common law in this country. All agreed that every free person born within the limits and the allegiance of a State of the United States was a naturalborn citizen of the State and of the United States. And this was undoubtedly the view of Mr. Justice Curtis in his dissenting opinion in the Dred Scott Case, 19 How. 393, 581, 15 L.Ed. 691, in which he said:
‘ * * * we find that the Constitution has recognized the general principle of public law, that allegiance and citizenship depend on the place of birth.‘
This doctrine of citizenship by reason of place of birth is spoken of by the writers on the subject as the jus soli or common law doctrine. The Roman rule is different and is in effect in many of the continental European countries. This is called the jus sanguinis and depends upon the nationality of the parents and not upon the place of birth...
As a result of the adoption of the amendment, whatever differences existed between statesmen and jurists on the general subject prior to the War Between the States was put to rest, and it may now be stated as an established rule that every person born within the United States (except in the case of children of ambassadors, etc.), whether born of parents who are themselves citizens of the United States or of foreign parents, is a citizen of the United States. In the Wong Kim Ark Case, supra, the whole question of citizenship is traced from its source and the subject is so elaborately considered as to make unnecessary any further reference to this phase of the question. But see generally on the subject: McCreery v. Somerville, 9 Wheat. 354, 6 L.Ed. 109; In re Look Tin Sing, C.C., 21 F. 905; Ex parte Chin King, C.C., 35 F. 354; Gee Fook Sing v. U.S., 9 Cir., 49 F. 146; Lynch v. Clarke, 1 Sandf. Ch., N.Y., 583; Opinion of Attorney General Black in 1859, 9 Op.Attys.Gen. 373; Opinion of Attorney General Bates in 1862, 10 Op.Attys.Gen. 394."
