The are numerous Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) decision describing the application of the natural born citizen

Oh? And, who decides whether a candidate is a natural born citizen?

You - -
the Supreme Court - -
or the electors who choose our presidents. (United States Constitution, Article II, Section 1.)

That is the heart of the problem right now. The Democrats with the complicity of the Republicans have been steadily dismantling the apparatus provided to the Citizens in the Constitution for the enforcement of such provisions in the Constitution. These avenues are too manyto dertail in this forum, but examples range from the popular election of the President instead of by Electors, to popular elections of the Senators instead of the State legislatures to the destruction of the popular Federal Grand Jury and the SCOTUS 20th Century establishment of the unconstitutional standing doctrine in court procedure. In combination, these and many other measures such as fxing the maximum number of Congressmen in the House of Representatives have served to wrest the power to try and punish violations of the Constitution away from the Citizsens and put those powers in the hand so fan elite seeking impunity for the unconstitutional acts.

The battle over the natural born citizen clause is only just one facet among hundreds where these erosions of Citizen powers has had consequences today. Note ho in the last decade to two decades Democrats and Republicans in the Congress attempted to introduce bills which would amend the Constitution to remove the natural born citizen clause from the Constitution. It should be observed how there would have been absolutely no need whatsoever to introduce bills for such legislation if the natural born citizen was synonymous with citizen born as they falsely claim. Note lso how the SCOTUS and the Executive would be different today had the natural born citizen clause been enforced as they feared when they failed to get the votes to remove the natural born citizen clause with a Constitutional Amendment.
