There is plenty on this very thread to show the weakness of your argument.

Natural Born Citizen means CITIZEN AT BIRTH!

The Courts, at one time, held that you must have parents who are citizens, at the time of your birth, for this to be true. The Courts so held because there was no Act of Congress at that time to define Citizenship.

Now there is.

Your “case law” is, therefore, worthless. Legislation trumps Common Law. Legislation trumps Case Law based on Common Law.

So what is it?! What "Act of Congress" are you talking about? Can you give the Public Law number so that it can be looked up at GPOAccess?

According to whom??? Find a legal source that says this and is actually backed up by caselaw.
