The meaning has been “jus soli,” a person born in the U.S. or a person born overseas to American parents who have lived in the U.S. with exceptions to the rule for persons born to foreigners with diplomatic immunity and members of a foreign invading military plus prior to 1924, persons born with American Indian tribal sovereignty.
We have specific law to that effect: 8 U.S.C. § 1401
“To further delineate” natural born citizen as requiring two U.S. citizen parents even if a person is born in the U.S. would require legislation, constitutional amendment or a Supreme Court ruling to that effect.
Do you know what a cognitive dissonance it is to cite a *law* regarding a constitutional term?
To further delineate natural born citizen as requiring two U.S. citizen parents even if a person is born in the U.S. would require legislation, constitutional amendment or a Supreme Court ruling to that effect.
No more so than requiring a law to delineate "bullets" as a necessary requirement for "arms." In cases where you can't have one without the other, it is an unnecessary redundancy.
