Sez who?

Sez the Constitution: 14th Amendment

Section 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.

The C.A. Arthur article is moot.

I noticed it did not say “are natural born citizens.”
