It doesn't need to, because it is axiomatic. You want to create qualifications that certain persons cannot meet, in order to specifically exclude them, but those qualifications are just that; Created. Made up. Without intrinsic value. Subjective. Arbitrary.

It's interesting that you should refer to that particular one, since it was specifically written to address lingering citizenship and civil rights questions regarding emancipated slaves, who were widely regarded as "not" or "less than" human by the left side of that debate. Ironically, using much the same kind of arbitrary and subjective criteria currently used to defend abortion.

Re-read the Fifth Amendment. It says "No person..."

The Constitution says humans have rights. You're trying to arbitrarily and subjectively decide who is human and who isn't.

Your point is well taken.

But my eyeballs went straight to Barry's reaction to the weird PDAs between George and Michelle. You think there's something going on there? He obviously does.
