“U.S. citizenship may be acquired either at birth or through naturalization subsequent to birth.”

So much for the naturalized AT birth argument. Under American law it is always one or the other - born a citizen or naturalized as a citizen.

Stop acting like a troll trying to disseminatte false propaganda. You’ve alreaddy been shown the historical evidence that naturalization “makes” an alien person a citizen subsequent to birth while denizaton and staturory jus soli “makes” an alien a citizen at birth by man-made law. Wheereas a natural born citizen is naturally a citizen at birth without anyone using a jus soli or jus sanguinis man-made law to make the person a citizen. Just because people have been careless and inconsistent in using the terminology does not mean the way they practiced the citizenship is any less valid.
Otherwise to remain consistent with historical usage of the term, you would have to ignore how they “deemed” and “reputed” aliens naturalized as citizens subsequent to their birth as the natural born citizen they were styled, which was at complete odds with the practice and intent of birth to two citizen parents within the sole allegiance of the sovereign.
