- peter_d_sherman 7y agoI would submit that someone living in Finland, who is a citizen of Greece, born in Norway, is not contractually obligated by the U.S. Constitution, unless they accept it in some way or other, and if so, that acceptance may be in conflict with other contracts (such as other citizenships) that they may have accepted prior. So no, probably not. On the other hand, I would presume that anyone who works for the U.S. Government has accepted the U.S. Constitution, either explicitly (by Oath) and/or implicitly (by the act of working for the U.S. Government). Why is this important? Well, see, if those people are in charge of creating/enforcing sanctions, they are also contractually obligated to do so while NOT BREAKING THEIR CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATION TO UPHOLD EACH AND EVERY ASPECT OF THE CONSTITUTION. One of the things that The Constitution says (above) is that people (all people by the way, not just some of a specific nationality, and not just those that have accepted the Constitution) are NOT to be deprived of their property without Due Process (which includes but is not limited to a Trial By a Jury of one's peers). So... you do the math.
