The statute that tells you who is a citizen at birth, which is the same as natural born citizen,

The first part is correct, the second is your assumption.

Yes, because there is no undisputed authority to state what “natural born” means, I am forced to just read the English words. “At birth” means at the moment of birth. “Natural born” to me means “born a citizen” — and I see an equivalency between those two. What else could “born a citizen” mean than “a citizen at birth”?

It is a scandal that there is no undisputed legal authority to tell Americans who can and who cannot be president.

This is outrageous. I was annoyed at the start of my awareness of this problem, but now I am becoming increasingly angry. It’s scandalous. Do you realize that nobody knows for sure who can be president of the United States of America?

There is no undisputed legal authority to tell us. It’s outrageous. It’s sick and perverted. It really is. It’s a very bad joke.
