Let me see if I can follow your logic: In a play written in 1600 (or thereabouts), Shakespeare used the line "Were all thy children kind and natural." That means that, when the Founders wrote the Constitution in 1787, the phrase "natural born citizen" was intended to limit eligibility for the presidency to a certain "Kind." So, in order to be a "natural born citizen" and thus eligible to be President, one must not only be a citizen based on jus soli and jus sanguinis citizenship, one also must be of the right "Kind" - meaning that they must be of Anglo-Saxon descent.

Do I have that right?
