And the drafting of the Constitution explicitly used a term from the Law of Nations, and not the common law. Now that you know, hopefully you will stop spreading the misinformation you did above.

So far you haven’t said anything particularly convincing—I remain of the understanding that the natural born subject law which dates back to the 12th Century was the historical origin of the concept.

If you have citations to particular legal authorities that lead to some different answer I will look at them; at the point where I have time to do so, I might even look at the issue myself.

But all I see from what you have said is some stuff that doesn’t fit as authority—maybe you have a point. But if so, it isn’t apparent from anything you have said yet.
