The problem with making such a definitive statement is, when even one contrary example is found it refutes the argument. The Chinese born Sun Yat Sin (IIRC his name) had an Hawaiian CoLB which stated his place of birth as Honolulu.

Sun Yat-sen had a Certificate of Hawaiian Birth, issued by the Territory of Hawaii, from which a COLB could be generated if requested, (Upon request by his heirs one supposes)
