The point you make can’t be emphasized enough:

what citizenship status one is at the *instant*
of their birth is what they are ... period.

It is what it is.

"Chester was not born as a Natural Born Citizen, he was also British. "

Maybe you know some law that I don't, but if he was born in Fairfield, Vermont...he's a citizen, just like all the anchor babies from Mexico.

My first wife was German, never got natualized as American, but our daughter is 100% natural born U.S. Citizen.

Did I miss something?
