They did? So... how does that work. Since natural born citizens are citizens, who gets to be President then? Patagonians?

Are you deliberately obtuse or does it come natural?

Senate and House:

Clause 3: No Person shall be a Senator who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty Years, and been nine Years a Citizen of the United States, and who shall not, when elected, be an Inhabitant of that State for which he shall be chosen.

POTUS:

No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President

Clearly, anyone who is not deliberately twisting words and obfuscating facts, or even hiding from them will see that the requirements are specifically defined and DIFFERENT.

Why, what is the difference? Naturalized Citizens, Citizens are not necessarily Natural Born Citizens

If you cannot post back without answering the question, don't bother, I'll assume you can't, because well, you can't.

No I am not being "deliberately obtuse." I am simply pointing out that what you wrote is impossible and self contradictory.

You seem to have missed the point, because in this latest post you get even worse.

"Why, what is the difference? Naturalized Citizens, Citizens are not necessarily Natural Born Citizens."

Naturalized citizens are never natural born citizens. Both can be Congressmen. Only NBCs can be President. This is not rocket science. I am puzzled why you are having such a hard time getting it.
