David,
There are two classes of citizenship,
which is a term of municipal law.
These two classes correspond, via jus soli,
to the state and federal zones, respectively.
The Guarantee Clause does not guarantee a
Republican Form of Government to the federal
zone, only to the state zone. Congress cannot
alter the meaning of any terms used in the
Constitution, and the Qualifications Clauses
have never been amended.
See 1:2:2, 1:3:3, and 2:1:5.
Therefore, federal citizenship associates
one with a political jurisdiction
which is not guaranteed a Republican Form
of Government. Congress has been free to
create a legislative democracy for that zone,
and the second class of citizenship which
it created is a municipal franchise, which
can be taxed and regulated like any other
franchise.
State Citizenship, as recognized in the
Qualifications Clauses, cannot be taxed or
regulated, because it is not a franchise;
it is a fundamental Right.
See "Right/Constitutional Rights/Political Rights"
in Black's Law Dictionary, e.g. the right of
citizenship, that of suffrage, the right to
hold public office, and the right of petition.
We have cases to prove all of the points
which I have made above. They are assembled
in Gilbertson's OPENING BRIEF.

Your argument here only applies
to federal citizens, not to
state Citizens.

"Repeals by implication are not favored."
