Perfect.

This definition in “5.-1st” is totally consistent with what the WKA ruling actually said, not the insidious treacherous spin that Wong was determined to be NBC based on the false claim that native citizen equals natural born citizen regarding POTUS eligibility.

Wong was determined to be a native citizen, a child of resident aliens, obviously not a child of two citizens and not affirmed to be a NBC in WKA. Wong had equal citizen rights as a native citizen with the citizen rights of NBCs.

POTUS eligibility is not a citizenship right but constitutional specification based on a condition of birth on US soil to parents who are citizens (and also perhaps to the child of an unmarried mother who could convey unitary citizenship which might yet apply to Obama depending on where he was born...BNA of 1948 explicitly does not govern illegitimate, presumably including bigamous children).

Do you think the opposition here will be able understand it?

I once even tried the analogy of 2 + 2 ...nothing seems to work.

And this fits the definition of the term "Denizen" in Blackstone. A Denizen literally means resident, from the French root. And a Denizen at English Common Law had most of the citizen rights of a natural born subject - but none of the political rights, including not being eligible to high office.
