"The Naturalization Act of 1790 probably constitutes the most significant evidence available. Congress enacted this legislation just three years after the drafting of the Constitution, and many of those who voted on it had participated in the Constitutional Convention. The act provided that “children of citizens of the United States, that may be born beyond the sea, or out of the limits of the United States, shall be considered as natural-born citizens.” - Professor Sarah Helene Duggin

Remember McCain? ...the Senate passed a resolution declaring that “John Sidney McCain, III, is a ‘natural born Citizen” under Article II, Section 1, of the Constitution of the United States.”

Congress cannot change the definition of a word. All that matters with respect to qualifications to be President is: WHAT DID NATURAL BORN MEAN WHEN THE CONSTITUTION WAS ADOPTED?! Omg people . . We’re suppose to be the smart ones...
