The distinction to me seems to be between natural born citizens and naturalized citizens.

Where is there is some third category where you are a citizen from the moment of your birth, but are not a “natural born” citizen?

It defies logic.

“It defies logic.”

More to the point, it defies law and the US Constitution.

The Constitution had residency requirements for most offices, but required the President to be born in the US. It was left to the voters to reject America-hating baby killers, but America didn’t do that in 2008.
