> To constitute a citizen, the party must be born not only within the territory, but within the ligeance of the government

This was later said by Sen. Trumbull regarding the 14th Amendment:

The provision is, that ‘all persons born in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens.’ That means ‘subject to the complete jurisdiction thereof.’ What do we mean by ‘complete jurisdiction thereof?’ Not owing allegiance to anybody else. That is what it means.

Yep. The co author of the 14th Amendment, Jacob Howard said the same. The evidence is all over the place.
