"The USSC must rule on what is a natural born citizen or we will have doubts until they do. Heck of a way to run a country... "

They already have defined natural born Citizen, FOUR TIMES!

Minor v. Happersett , 88 U.S. 162 (1875):

"The Constitution does not in words say who shall be natural-born citizens. Resort must be had elsewhere to ascertain that. At common law, with the nomenclature of which the framers of the Constitution were familiar, it was never doubted that all children born in a country of parents who were its citizens became themselves, upon their birth, citizens also. These were natives or natural-born citizens, as distinguished from aliens or foreigners. Some authorities go further and include as citizens children born within the jurisdiction without reference to the citizenship of their parents. As to this class there have been doubts, but never as to the first."
