But some people say if you never needed to be naturalized,that makes you a natural born citizen.

Vivek was never naturalized because he was a citizen by birth. He was not naturalized along with his parents because he was already a citizen.

And according to some people that makes him a natural born citizen because he was born in America. Others disagree.

He was naturalized at birth by a law passed by congress. If you look up the law, it even says "Naturalization".

The Supreme Court even refers to this type of naturalization in their Wong Kim Ark decision. They talk about "mass naturalization at birth" through a law passed by congress.

It's still naturalization.
