Argggg! Look at the Indiana decision again. Same thing. If you are born in USA you are an NBC. The “law” since at least 1608.

I don’t see the term “natural born citizen” there, if we’re talking about the same case. I see it being said that a child born in the country to an alien is a citizen. But where’s the ruling that he/she is also a “natural born citizen?
The Constitution uses the specific term “natural born citizen”; just plain citizenship doesn’t meet that standard, or else they would have just said “citizen”. Why didn’t they just say “citizen” in the Constitution?
