And don't let the new shills out here try and convince you that United States v. Wong Kim Ark, 169 U.S. 649 (1898) defined Natural Born Citizen as anyone born on U.S. Soil. It did not.
The Supreme Court of the United States has never applied the term “natural born citizen” to any other category than “those born in the country of parents who are citizens thereof”.
If the founders intended that anyone born on American soil was a Natural Born Citizen, then why did they have to add:
No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President?
Because it was not until July 4, 1811, that the first first “natural born” citizens… those born to U.S. citizens after July 4, 1776… became 35 years of age.
