If my parents are both American citizens why do I need to be born on US soil? People take vacations.
That would be a citizen (automatically), but not, as I understand it, a natural born citizen.
The distinction is meant to more or less equate to “didn’t need any paperwork to be recognized as American, and has no other citizenship “.
That is my read of it. But unfortunately unlike the Great and Powerful Brak 0bummer, I am not a Constitutional Scholar. So IANAL and YMMV.
