The US Supreme Court can change (and has changed) the Constitution arbitrarily and capriciously.

Please point out the Supreme Court having ever changed the Constitution regarding eligibility requirements for the office of President.

And, should you feel that you've identified such a decision, understand the limitations upon Amendment in Marbury v. Madison.

It's not possible for the Constitutional meaning of this term to have been arbitrarily, capriciously or otherwise changed in any manner. A Constitutional Amendment is required, as has been recognized several times in this decade, via bills sponsored with the intent of altering the natural born citizenship clause, or the definition of natural born citizen itself.
