My Great Grandfather, who came through Ellis Island, also followed the rules, he was employed, had a sponsor here, and obtained his citizenship prior to sponsoring and bringing over his wife and children.

That's great but he wasn't born to an American citizen. According to your linked source that means he couldn't have been an citizen, which means his children and grandchildren couldn't be citizens either. Just following the logic of your reference.

What part of "Naturalized" don't you understand? It's right there in the 14th "All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof", and right there in my post.
