“Kim Wong Ark had two non-citizen parents, yet was a US citizen at birth and was found by US law to be “natural born”.”

KWA was not found or declared a “Natural Born Citizen.”

KWA was declared a citizen under the 14th Amendment.

The court said that his rights as a citizen were the same as those of a a Natural born citizen.

The Presidency is not a right of citizenship. It is restricted to NBCs.

Come on fellow, just how hard is it to meet the born in country to 2 US citizens eligibility requirement? It seems to be a very easily met and common sense requirement.

That Obama desn’t meet the requirement and given the damage his administration has done to this country both domestically and internationally, proves the wisdom of the Founders requirement of being the 18th Century definition of a Natural Born Citizen......Born in the country to 2 citizen parents.....

The precedent found said he would be, by its provision, a “natural born subject”, the precedent being English, the phrase in America would be “natural born citizen” (I said “natural born”). The judge then went on to say he would be “as much a citizen” (nothing about rights), as a child born of citizens.

Last time I checked “as much a citizen” isn't carving out a class of born a citizen but not a natural born citizen, it is saying that he is “as much a citizen” as a child born of two citizen parents.

The relevant passage.....

“The child of an alien, if born in the country, is as much a citizen as the natural born child of a citizen, and by operation of the same principle”

It isn't hard to meet those requirements, many Americans do, but it is not at all clear that THOSE are the requirements, the SCOTUS has said that those are the provisions that leave it in absolutely no doubt.
